hired this company for help on ssdi. Will comeback and update as necessary on my final outcome. to be continued.

Enlisted the help of VD to help me with my claim. I filled out the agreement between myself and VD. Sent in medical records and VA decision letters. All I get is message on their portal that says - "We have received your XXXXX. Thanks and we will contact you if additional information is needed." Then SSA sent me a document to fill out - I contacted VD and asked them how we should handle SSA request for information. VD told me to take the first shot at the document, send it to them and they would make suggestions and/or recommendation on my reply. I filled out the form and sent it to VD. Then I got an message on the portal that VD reviewed my submission and went ahead and sent it to SSA on my behalf. VD did not do what they said they were going to do. They did not add a word. Just turned it over to SSA. I am not expecting good results from SSA because VD has not communicated with me to give me any thought of projected outcomes. Communications has been one way, with the given "Yelp, thanks, we got what you sent us." Have several friends starting the process and I have shared my experience with VD and advised them "buyer beware." I have talked with several friends that submitted their own SSDI claim and they got great results by themselves and said it was an easy process - that "if [they] could do it, anyone could do it." The VA already has me at 90% within 3 months post my retirement - which I have constantly shared with VD. It feels like, VD is slow rolling my claim so there is a larger SSA backpay which will get VD a larger pay out. Fingers crossed, but not banking on good outcomes. Again, buyer beware. read more

I had Disability insurance victory Disability insurance to represent me case after they could not finished because they say that I'm not going to get any money because have any work so they stayed on March 12 2 missing the case without getting paid or anything on March 1926 the Social Security check for 9200 more money what they say they're gonna charge me they are thieves now they don't want to return the money so I can several complaints after that dismissed and me a paperwork that my case dismissed the money illegally so I'll see what happened is for everybody else that be careful with this company they do something and back read more

Yes, I was approved but working with VD was a nightmare. They are dishonest and very indifferent to important issues. Many of the staff dont know the basics of their job. They lied so much. ​ read more

After receiving my SSDI denial, I contacted VD. I submitted everything to the clerk assigned, and waited. Then I was scheduled for a judge e-appointment when VD informed me I was short credits and dropped me without telling me 1. how many credits 2. remedial action if any 3. why SSDI would deny me via one reason, but now I don't have enough work credits. I believe they are a "mill" so be prepared to be dropped without help or clarification. read more

They did absolutely nothing to earn the 25% that they would have received if I was approved. I was not approved thus they did not do their jobs. I lot of time went into preparing for my disability only to be denied 3x. They wanted me to sign a second contract for two years which I refused to sign. Who knows what kind of intentions they have. read more

I was involved in a car accident on the job. After having to fire 2 law firms, Victory Disability successfully took my case and brought it to conclusion within 6 months of retaining them. I was referred from a friend that has a 100 percent service connected disability rating. I would highly recommend them to fight for you if your medical conditions meet the regulatory requirements. I can't praise them for their assistance in helping me with the worst 3 years of my life with the other 2 law firms that do not properly represent disabled & injured federal workers. read more

I have been waiting on a decision for my SSDI. Although it has been nearly 2years and no decision . Representative Gabriella has done an outstanding job keeping me informed with a phone call every few months. I really appreciate that. Ms Gabriella thank you very much. read more

I applied for SSDI on my own and when it came time to appeal I learned I was in over my head. The team at Victory made it easy. They were professional and communicated with me every step of the way. I was always well.informed and they had answers to all the various confusing steps. At the end of the day they succeeded in getting me a fully favorable rating. I would absolutely recommend Victory to anyone and especially to the veteran community. read more

To be very honest, I don't see where you guys did much you filed my appeal paperwork and that was really it, but the nice thing was when the woman from Social Security disability called me and was like we have very few of your medical records and their incomplete and then I said oh let me call my lawyer and straighten that out Amazingly she found all my medical records because like you guys told me they had 3400 pages. How could you not determine if somebody was disabled by 3400 pages of medical records? read more

Please do your research prior to hiring this firm for your Social Security Disability Insurance Claim or appeals. As other reviews, I don't believe they did anything more than file my medical records, as I now know I could have done that myself. There was absolutely no coaching prior to Compensation & Pension (C&P) exams, and if I didn't have an extensive medical background, I would not have been awarded my claim. Do yourself a favor, and if you believe you need representation, do your research, speak with the intake folks or the lawyer, and ask the questions so you don't end up like me threatening to withdraw my case if I didn't speak with the attorney.

I did all the work and Victory Disability just got $3k in fees for doing nothing. It was my mistake to have contracted them before SSI made a decision; but they should reimburse me 90% of the fees. read more

I used them for preparing and processing my SSDI. The entire process was absolutely amazing. It was stress free and smooth. The communication was great and they were quick to respond back when reached out too. They set medical appointments, made sure documents were submitted and provided lawyer for hearing. Highly recommend read more

I hate posting negative reviews but I am discouraged and frustrated. I do not feel like my case is being focused on. I was told by my case manager that my disability claim was approved over a month ago and to wait a few days to receive my award letter and to let her know when I receive it. I still have not received a letter. I have called SSA and they have informed me that it takes approximately 2-4 weeks to receive an award letter. I feel like I have done all of the footwork on my case, I have been diligent with communication to my case manager regarding my physical conditions and my Drs treatment plans. The SSA rep also told me that my case is having its final review. I'm not understanding how I can be told that my claim has been approved and will receive a award letter if the final review is still in progress. Can someone please clarify this for me? read more

Victory Disability is ONLY good for assisting people with the process of your claim but when it comes down to any real tenacity in a hearing, they fail miserably. Right now I'm at the last stop in the process as my appeal has gone to Virginia, which is apparently the final review. Each time the hearing judges denied my claim, Victory Disablity had an apathetic attitude and only focused on the process, not fighting for their clients. When I called to raise questions about the status of my case, they seemed far more concerned with protecting their own credibility and shortcomings than actually helping their clients. Finally, my case has been tossed around to three diffetent lawyers in the firm as they can't seem to keep a staff of lawyers, then they don't inform their clients about it. I sent several emails at one point to who I thought was still my case manager only to be told two weeks later he was "no longer with them". If you're looking for a firm who will fight for you tooth and nail, keep looking. These people will never measure up. read more

This company called me multiple times and sent multiple correspondences via email and text. After I provided them all my medical history and spoke with a representative (after getting transferred 3 times) I was told that the lawyers are not taking cases. This company is a waste of time. Don't get caught up in this scheme. read more

I will say I did win my claim, BUT there was a big lack of communication with direction from them. I received ALL my paperwork from SSA before they even contacted me to tell me to fill it out. They seemed always 2 steps behind the process. After my claim was finished, I learned from SSA, NOT victory, that my son was also entitled to benefits. SSA sent me ALL the needed forms, set me up for the application interview, and corresponded with me directly. AFTER I was awarded his benefits, Victory notified me that they were also entitled to the fee associated with his claim. I was never told my son was even eligible until SSA notified me. After writing multiple negative reviews online, Victory contacted me and offered to reduce the fees if I would remove the posts. After a few weeks of not hearing from them, they redacted their offer. They know they were wrong. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY!! read more

I engaged with Victory Disabio (VD) last year to file and represent my disability claim but they attached themselves to my SSA retirement. I was told from the onset that their fees were contingent on the success of my disability claim. I found out early the received their fees from my retirement where I called them immediately to have corrected. They apologized profusely stating "this has never happened before" and it was an error by the SSA that they would corrected quickly. I asked them to walk me through the process and they stated they needed a form from the SSA to refund them the money so that it would be appropriately accounted for. I checked on the status twice a month with explanations it's in the "appeals" process. 8 months have gone by when I called this week and again this morning to find that no form is required and that VD should have refunded me the money directly. After that revelation I did a google search today and found that there are many others that have similar experiences with VD. This must stop so buyer beware. read more

Victory successfully won my case for SSDI, after 3 years of me being denied benefits from SSA. I am a 100% disabled vet who had to leave a high profile position due to PTSD/BiPolar in 2017. After 3 years of denials ( how can state overrule federal (the military) disability determination?) I just gave up on the whole SSA filing, I was very discouraged. In 2020 I got a letter in the mail from Victory, saying that they had picked up my case because they believed it was winnable. They let me know that it could take up to 2 yrs, but they were confident, and I decided to work with them, though I was still doubtful. It's baffling to go on the medical appointments and see a "doctor" or "therapist " for an evaluation that typically lasts only minutes, and have them make a disability decision about over 40 years of my life! But that's how the SSA system works, don't consider my 22yrs of "honorable" service and sacrifice to my country, but the word of medical folks who probably didn't graduate top of their class. Anyhow, it took 2 years, and Victory won my case, a total of 5yrs of dealing with the SSA. I wish I had known about Victory in 2017, my financial struggles would not have been so difficult. I did not agree with the back pay I received from SSA, but I know when to hold'em and when to fold'em, and I wasn't about to mess up my blessing; I was happy just know that now my monthly income would allow me to pay off debt and live more comfortably Victory improved my life. They were up front in saying it's would be a long fight, but assured me that they believed we could win, and we did. A little more communication would have be better, but I'm a squeaky wheel, and if I hadnt heard from them in awhile, I would call or email, and get a response within a reasonable amount of time. I have already recommended Victory to veteran friends who are, or have unsuccessfully dealt with the SSA. I knew I wasn't their only client, and they set the expectations and timeliness right from the start of our partnership. Victory's promise to me was "we can win, it will take time, and they would fight for me all the way through." The goal is to get our benefits. Victory can't make a dollar amount judgement, SSDI is based on the amount of SS tax an individual has paid during their work history. That information is easily found on the SSA.GOV website. No person will get the same as another person. Benefit amount is based individually Well Done Victory, you improved my life! read more

I would not trust this company. I signed up for their services with the understanding that my case would be expedited because of me being 100% disabled through the VA. I was promised an email verifying that this was the case. That email never came. I subsequently requesting a cancellation of their services 3 days later. I spoke with Alexander Siotis (the lead attorney) who on two occasions (one was recorded) stated that he would withdraw his representation. I have since contacted the SS Administration or 3 occasions and Victory Disability has yet to formerly request that their representation be removed from my case. To date they have done absolutely nothing for my case and yet they still will not remove themselves. read more

Do not use them I did all the work 22 months later I got approved but the payout was wrong contacted them and was told we got paid if your payment is wrong you'll have to contact social security read more

Do not use these people. Victory Disability led me to the slaughter. They did nothing to prepare me for what I would face at my social security Disability hearing. They at times seemed more allied with the opposition than fighting for justice. They failed to up hold their fiduciary obligation. read more

Do yourself a favor and keep looking for a good disability law firm, Victory Disability is not it. I had the worst experience imaginable and I won my case. My case was won because of a well documented illness, not because Victory did anything special. The only time I ever spoke to my attorney I had to call him and he told me "I don't have time to bullshit with you". In situations like this you need a professional and Victory Disability does not measure up, you will be well served to keep looking. read more
