Incredibly professional staff of some of the most helpful people. Every call was answered, every concern was addressed, and all in a speedy timeframe. I cannot stress enough how helpful these wonderful people were in assisting me.

I recently had the pleasure of working with attorney Max Malvin, and I must say, he is one of the most caring and compassionate attorneys I have ever met. From the moment we first spoke, I knew that he was genuinely interested not just in my case and in helping me achieve the best possible outcome but in my overall well-being. It was apparent from the beginning that Max is not motivated by greed or making money from his clients. The man simply wanted to help me. One of the things that impressed me about Max Malvin was his willingness to listen and hear me out during our very first consultation. He took the time to really understand my situation and to hear my concerns. He asked remarkably thoughtful questions and was always patient and respectful. He made me feel like I was his only client; even though we had yet to forge a professional alliance. Throughout the legal process, you can expect attorney Max Malvin to keep you informed every step of the way. He explained everything in detail and made sure I understood my options and the potential outcomes; good or bad. He was always available to answer my questions, and he never made me feel like I was bothering him. Not once. But what really set Max apart was his empathy. He truly cared about me and my family (my mother to be specific), and he went above and beyond to make sure we were okay. He checked in with me regularly, and he even referred me to some resources that helped me through a difficult time. In the end, thanks to Mr. Malvin’s hard work and dedication, my case was resolved in my favor. I could not have asked for a better outcome, and I know that it was due in large part to Max’s expertise and commitment to his clients. I KNOW that Max Malvin’s first priority is providing care to his clients. His communication is absolutely impeccable for an attorney (or professional of any sort for that matter). If you're looking for an attorney who genuinely cares about you and your case, communicates perfectly and possesses an incredible legal mind, then I highly recommend Attorney Max Malvin. He is an unwavering professional and a compassionate advocate, and I feel lucky to have him on my side.

I’m glad I was referred to Smiley Law Firm! Start to finish Karla professionally guided me though the process. Just a stellar law firm!

We worked with Reagan after my husband was abruptly terminated from his employee sponsored disability benefits and life insurance continuance benefits. At the time of our first meeting, Reagan was professional, empathetic, and straight forward. His previous experience and knowledge of the law made us comfortable with our decision to contact him. Because of his commitment to the law, my husband's disability and life insurance was reinstated. After my husband's death, he was an amazing guide to help me through the next hurdle, my husband's life insurance benefits. He was available to me in times of stress and uncertainty, thoroughly researched case law and worked long hours for the best outcome possible for me and my family. I am so grateful we chose Reagan to represent us because the outcome with his help has been life changing for me and my family.

Travis was amazingly professional and had clear and comprehensive communication. There was never a time I didn't understand or had any additional questions he always clearly explained everything.

I owe my livelihood, future ability to provide for myself and well being to Reagan Toledano. Mr. Toledano took my case when I came to him as a 20 something year old, having been denied LTD by my employer's insurer. When I came to Reagan I was unable to work, in my 20s, with a very complex, rarely known or diagnosed illness. I didn’t fully understand at the time just how grately the cards were stacked against me and my case. I now have a better understanding that with a very unknown complex illness and being in my 20s the likelihood of winning my appeal and being awarded disability benefits was slim and almost impossible. Nevertheless, Mr. Toledano took a chance, and took my case, working tirelessly for nearly a year to get me the benefits I deserved. Mr. Toledano is extremely knowledgeable and experienced when it comes to National disability insurers and ERISA claims,with a demonstrated and proven track record in knowing which issues to target to produce a favorable outcome for claimants. He was very knowledgeable in knowing what specific medical information would prove most vital to my case during the appeals process. He advised on what information strengthened my case the most and provided detailed instructions and assistance on exactly how to acquire such documentation from family, friends, employers and physicians. Mr. Toledano presented issues that were most important and pertinent to my case, more so than I had even considered and he knew how to navigate the administrative side of filing and appealing a disability claim. Reagan was ultimately successful in presenting my case and appeal to Metlife. Mr. Toledano and staff partnered with me and treated me with such kindness and respect, always returning phone calls in a timely manner, even calling some evenings after hours to answer my questions and assist with documentation, and quickly replying to email, providing thorough detailed information for any and all questions I had. I’d recommend Willeford & Toledano to anyone struggling with obtaining Long Term Disability benefits or with an ERISA claim. More specifically,I’d recommend Reagan Toledano and his legal expertise to anyone with a disability claim. There aren’t enough words to explain how vital Reagan’s expertise and knowledge were in the positive outcome for my case and being awarded disability benefits upon appeal with Metlife. I recommend him to anyone who needs a caring, professional and thorough attorney on their side as they navigate their disability claim.

Reagan Toledano demonstrated the breadth of his legal expertise and knowledge when I hired him to represent me in a particularly complex ERISA case. He explained the legal process in a manner easily understood by a layperson such as myself, but not at all in a manner which was condescending. Reagan thoroughly prepared me for the various aspects of the case, including meetings with the judge, administrative appeals, etc. Reagan’s legal training and expertise with ERISA cases are evident in his interaction with other lawyers, courthouse staff, judges, clients, and other various professionals and specialists involved in my case. For potential ERISA clients seeking legal representation, I highly recommend Reagan Toledano.

I spoke with Reagan Toledano and am incredibly grateful for the legal advice he was able to provide. Not only was he empathetic and understanding, he was knowledgeable and articulate about the matter which we discussed. I will absolutely refer to him when I am in need of legal assistance.

Mr. Toledano represented me in my LTD case against my insurer. The process was technically challenging, even for someone like me with a law degree, and I greatly appreciated his patience, research, advice, and acumen. Beyond his technical expertise, he also offered emotional support, demonstrating true professionalism. I highly recommend his services.

Reagan's professionalism and attention to detail were exceptional. He searches for ways to help his clients in every manner available to him. Without his persistence in documenting my conditions, I would not have found the best doctors that eventually diagnosed and treated me. He was very pleasant to work with and explained everything in detail.
