Cathleen has helped many people get on disability! The referrals she gets in her office is proof that she has helped a lot of client's and those client's refer new client's to her. She is not able to charge over $6,000 from back pay since that is the maximum amount she can charge. Anything over that would never be approved, therefore, she would never try to get more than the maximum. The work that goes into helping people get on disability is worth more than $6,000 if the client doesn't meet the criteria of being disabled in the eyes of the Social Security Administration but Cathleen has a huge heart and truly wants to help everyone that comes through her door. She also advances all the expenses to order medical records to send evidence to the Social Security Administration.
I think it's fair to say that most of her client's don't have the money to order medical records and Cathleen shouldn't be stuck with the bill so she does try to get reimbursed for all medical expenses she advances after the she wins. A percentage of her client's do not pay their bill even after they get their lump sum payment of thousands of dollars!
As for secretaries, for awhile, she had a hard time finding a good secretary. She now has a good secretary dedicated to helping client's get on disability. Cathleen has been practicing law for over 40 years so she comes with experience and a ton of knowledge!

I would not ever recommend her. She done no justice on our side other then collect the back pay. We done all her work basically for her. It came time for hearings; she was not prepared at all. We collected the majority of the information plus sent it all. There was no communication "hardly" between us, other then us trying to reach her for anything.. NEVER EVER AGAIN

In 3 months she had ran off at least 3 secretaries. Even revealed personal information about one of them, she didn't get my name right, sent letters to the wrong drs I did not go to along with not getting my name right. She said she assumed my last name was something else! Assumed! I had to gather all my medical records even though that is her responsibility. Rarely returned phone calls then when it was finally time for the hearing she behaved so bizarre as she wasn't familiar with the judge so she said she had hoped he wasn't a bible thumping republican! I hoped he was. Maybe more honest that way. Do to the extent of my injuries it was granted but then she had the nerve to try and charge ,e more than the 6000.00 dollar cap she received at my expense! Because she had to send me the letters she sent out. Because she continued to use incorrect information and contacts I had to police her. When I told her she is not entitled to more than the cap she said she wouldn't let me have my medical records back. That wasn't a problem since I'm the one that gathered all that info in the first place and I sent her the copies
