Jacobs, Schwalbe & Petruzzelli, P.C.

Grateful for the best help in applying for SS Disability at no cost to me. Appreciate all the work the firm put into my application and received an extremely quick approval from SSA.

Dear Lauren Tovinsky and Robert Petruzzelli, I want to take this moment to formally thank you for the representation and support you provided in connection with winning my Social Security Disability case, and most recently, the expert advice you provided that helped me successfully pass a Continuing Disability Review. You and your staff were great from the time of our first consultation, submission of disability claim(s), collecting and assembling discovery documents and evidence, through the various appeals and court proceedings and hearings. You took ownership of my case and knew every detail which was evident in our conversations, your briefs and arguments (these, I genuinely enjoyed reading), and at the hearings. It took me a while to learn about and appreciate your upstanding reputation with the Social Security Administration (SSA). I am extremely fortunate to have been your client. Your staff is extremely detail-oriented and very personable. Every time I called your office, the people at the front desk knew who I was and exactly how to route my call, and on many occasions, were able to access my case and answer questions. They made me feel welcome and provided a sense of security which helped me emotionally. Carol was wonderful to work with. She always knew the status of my case, encouraged me to provide what seemed like repetitive requests for information by the SSA, and was on top of every deadline. Carol validated my questions and concerns. Carol always returned my voice and e-mail messages. Carol’s professionalism is greatly appreciated. Danette is an effective and dedicated team member at JS&P. I like her communication style. She always took the time to explain things to me in a direct manner. The process of attaining SSDI was confusing and overwhelming to me. At times I felt like it was impossible (having mental disorders made it seem worse). Danette is patient and kind. I am pleased to have worked with her. I am grateful that Alfredo worked on my case regarding the collection and organization of my health records. His attention-to-detail put me at ease. During the time he was working on my case there was a policy change at JS&P whereby the clients became responsible for collecting their medical records to save time and money for both the firm and the client. Alfredo led this change and helped me through the transition. He explained how it is easier and faster for me to collect my records, and then send them to Alfredo for inclusion and organization in my case file. My experience with your firm was awesome. I appreciate your strategic planning and assessment at each step of the process. You are experts at communication and emotional intelligence, which has left a positive impact on me. Everyone at your firm is an excellent communicator, knows their job inside and out, goes above and beyond, has keen due diligence, is very client-driven, and felt like family.
