    This is my personal opinion review. According to yelps Terms of Service, I am able to make such…read morereviews without fear of legal retaliation or otherwise, as long as the information above is factual and true. Which, it is. If I could give negative stars, I would!! Atticus, which is a BS company said that downward and associates wanted to take on my disability claim so I signed the contract to work with them on my claim. I talked to them one time in the beginning when I first signed up with them and didn't hear back for months after that, so I finally called to see what my next step was after I applied and to let them know that I got paperwork in the mail and asked them if they are supposed to do it or if I'm supposed to do it and nobody ever answers the phone I would leave voicemails and finally got through and they said I had to fill it out and send it back to disability. My mind is saying if I hired an attorney, aren't they supposed to be helping me with this stuff and me not having to do everything myself? So I did the paperwork and sent it back to them as instructed by the lawyer. I had some questions so I called and reached back out once again nobody answers so I leave a message and then two weeks later get a callback saying that she got a voicemail and was returning my call. This happened again a few times when I finally get calls back weeks later so two weeks ago I called them left a message didn't hear back then last week I got my paperwork showing my claim was denied so I called them back again to discuss it with them on what my next step are and nobody answers again!!! They finally returned my call and said they needed me to re-sign my paperwork to retain them again to do the appeal for disability and I had enough. I told them I do not want them representing me anymore and then I was gonna look for a new lawyer and to please Send me paperwork showing that they were Not representing me and they are waving their fees. The lady argued with me that she thinks they talked to me more than just three times in the whole eight months that I had them and I said this is not professional. We shouldn't be going back-and-forth about this. I don't want to use you guys and that's my final answer. She said she was gonna discuss with the lawyer about sending me the paper that I needed and would get back with me. An hour goes by and one of the main lawyers calls me to try to see why I am not gonna be using them anymore and left me a voicemail so I returned his call and what do you know nobody answered again. So I called the lady back and let her know that he called and what exactly does he want to know because I already sent my letter to the disability office stating that I terminated my contract with them and I was firing them. She said that she sees in the file that he's OK with me getting the letter so she sends it to me and it says they are not gonna be waving their fees and if I win disability claim down the road they are gonna be trying to get my money out of that Even though they did absolutely nothing for me the whole eight months I had them representing me. I then emailed them letting them know that that is not right that they do not deserve any of my money because they did not help me with anything and said please resend the letter correctly as they should be doing which is the right thing to do in this situation I also called them and left a voicemail saying the same thing and now nobody has returned my calls or my emails. So if you want a company that is not going to return your calls ever or help you with your disability Then these are your people. But I don't recommend them whatsoever.

    I was denied disability and SSI back in 2002 the first time I had filed . Denied even though I met…read morethe eligibility criteria both physically and mentally. I was so put off by the denial when i was genuinely disabled I didn't decide to file the 2nd time until 2008. Again I was denied even though i met criteria in both areas for benefits. I was determined they were going to award me the benefits i officially was entitled to. Downard and Associates took my case over the phone the first day I called them inquiring. They handled everything up to the hearing and they won my case!!! They're experienced, know how to navigate the SS system to win your case and they are highly professional and supportive of you as an individual throughout the entire process. I highly recommend!!
