I was having some serious issues with both my employer and L&I, lack of communication with L&I, my benefits randomly getting cut off, total lack of professionalism IMO. I was referred to Sue Holm by a good friend of mine, I contacted her, told her my story, we discussed terms and I signed her on. IMMEDIATELY things got Infinitely better for us, payments came on time, if there was ever an issue I'd send off an email to Sue and it was handled promptly. I tried multiple times to gift her money, gift cards etc, because I felt that she was very under paid for the work she was doing, but she denied them every single time. Sue is very passionate and knowledgeable with her work, she doesn't take any gruff off anyone, myself included. If she felt I was doing something out of pocket, or had any issue with me at all, it was very direct and to the point. Which I absolutely love in a person, no beating around the bush, no guess work. I simply can not put into words the gratitude myself and my family have for what she has done for us in our battle against L&I and my employer, we thought we were going to be homeless, lose my job, even have to pay back almost $50,000. But we had a true warrior on our side, and it was worth every single penny. Even though she didn't get enough pennies. I do not recommend anyone else but Sue Holm when I hear someone is having an issue with work related injuries. And if, good forbid, I ever get injured at work again, even if it's a simple paper cut, I'm not doing any thing first before contacting her. She'll hear from me before a doctor sees me. L&I is not there for the workers, they're there for the corporations, you need someone that's there for you, and there simply is no one better than Sue. If she says "do this", GO DO IT! Communicate with her, and listen to her advice. When you need a dog in the fight for you, Sue is the Cane Corso you need.

We contacted a number of attonreys in hopes of finding someone who could help us with our daughter’s diability benefits. Sue was the only attorney who responded to our inquiry. Her response was fast and complete, and she was clearly very knowledgable about disability law. As a fellow attorney (who knows nothing about disability law) I would highly recommend her.

I had contacted a disability attorney whose office was close to me. He didn’t even listen to me or return my call. I was distraught. If you’re at the point you need a disability lawyer, you are already in pain and in need, financially. I read the reviews on AVVO on Susan Holm. I took the chance and called her. She screened my case during the call. She accepted my case. She met with me. After sitting with me for a few hours, we filled out what would be a saving grace for me. Susan’s counsel and advice and more importantly, compassion, helped me through the process. There are questions that she asked me that I wouldn’t have thought of on my own that I’m sure helped my case. I guess you can go through the system on your own but I wouldn’t suggest it. Someone like Susan has years of experience that will help give you clear expectations for your case. I was fortunate enough to have my case approved the first time through, within 4 months. I am not expected to return to work given my extensive health problems, but I am glad I will be receiving SSDI benefits to help with my lost income. Having it approved the first time is not the norm, by far. And by no means should you take away from me that your case will be approved the first time, or if it is, within 4 months. What I can honestly tell you is that I have no doubt that the assistance from Susan in preparing the application the first time did help. Susan anticipated what would definitely help. Her years of experience is so valuable in that regard. For me, going to Susan was worth it. I have no qualms about suggesting Susan to anyone seeking SSDI. I would suggest that before you meet with her, you gather all these important items: Doctor’s full names, their addresses, their phone and fax numbers, what they’re treating you for, the last appointment date you had with them, the next future appointment date, all medications you’re taking and for what conditions, ALL possible conditions you’ve been diagnosed with, and a journal of your physical and mental struggles. Also, employer’s FMLA documentation may help as well as the last 6 months of paystubs. I was prepared and Susan appreciated the preparation. Good luck and I hope health returns to you. But in any case, I hope you get the financial help from SSDI. I needed competence in a lawyer. I hoped for compassion considering my circumstances. Susan Holm provides both.

Sue helped us with an appeal for Social Security Disability benefits. She explained to us what to expect, the time frame and what was needed for the appeal hearing. Sue handled all the paperwork with timely submissions. She kept us informed with an open line of communication. With Sue's hard work and effort, we were able to get a positive outcome at the hearing.

Sue was an enormous help and she took the time to help me with the application for Social Security as I was not able to go through the application process due to my disability. She was very patient with me, she was Caring and very very thorough with the process and follow up. I feel very lucky to have found her, as I were looking to other attorneys. Sue was wonderful thank you so much!

I came across Susan with a closed workers comp case, had been abandoned by an attorney who didn't care for my case, other attorneys wouldn't hear me out and my court date was weeks away. I felt helpless and hopeless, Susan not only understood my condition, she had a great amount of compassion for me and what I had been through. She took a big chance with my closed case, explained everything at my pace, and kept my spirits up with encouraging words. I truly don't have enough words to explain how great she is! I am extremely thankful for her time and work, she did everything to prove my case should be reopened and we won! I can't thank her enough!

Susan Holm has shown me that there are attorneys out there who do care and want to make sure that they have your best interests at heart. She is extremely knowledgeable and will fight for you until the end. I can't thank her enough for her hard work, determination to get me what I needed, her compassion and effective work ethics. She is amazing.

Susan took on a project that looked like a dead-end street. She throughly researched the facts, in two states - and formulated a plan to present a winning case. Who could ask for anything more.

Susan was extremely helpful to me going through the process of applying for Social Security Disability. After one meeting, she basically took care of everything needed for the hearing. At the hearing, she argued my case and won. She kept me informed along the way and was very competent and compassionate.

Susan was very helpful. She kept us informed about what was going on and what all the information meant.
