I became disabled and had to find an attorney. After researching for one in my area, I found that this law firm was best suited for my needs. I contacted them, made an appointment with Kevin LaPorte, and never looked back. My attorney handled everything; we had one meeting and it was done. Yes, there was some waiting, but it was well worth it. His assistant, Sylvia, was very professional, answering all my questions or forwarding them. They would call to see how things are, send me things to fill out, or ask for things to be sent. This was extremely good for me, because I was not very mobile at the time. I would highly recommend this law firm if you need assistance. They handled the case very well and did all the paperwork and filing. I couldn’t be happier.

Kevin and his assistant have been very helpful, and the process was painless. I only had to visit his office twice before getting a court date to see the judge. Overall, the service was excellent.

Kevin LaPorte represented me in my SSDI case. He was generous with his time, professional, and he always kept me informed throughout the process. I found Kevin to be knowledgeable about both the cognitive and physical aspects of Parkinson’s disease, which was instrumental in successfully preparing me for my hearing before a judge. During the hearing, Kevin was highly skilled at asking me the right questions that helped accurately convey my condition and limitations to the judge. I owe him a big thanks for a successful outcome and highly recommend him.

Kevin LaPorte was instrumental in obtaining my Social Security Disability benefits. My benefits had been denied previously and I felt defeated, but Kevin was optimistic and gave me hope. Kevin and his staff were always very courteous and professional, willing to answer questions and to ease my anxiety. My daughter was my support person throughout this process and Kevin had no problem keeping us both up to date on my case. He is a very capable and caring individual who advocates aggressively for his clients. I wish Kevin continued success and recommend him highly.

I cannot say enough great things about Terry. He has decades of specialized legal knowledge and experience in disability law and it shows. In addition to his level of competence, he is such a genuine person. He regularly demonstrated how much he cares about me. One of the things I particularly appreciated was how responsive he was to my numerous inquiries. He consistently responded to me in a very timely way, whether it was responding with an email or calling me on the phone. Attorneys often do not show this level of professionalism, so it’s refreshing to work with an attorney who does.

I prevailed in my disability claim, which was not straightforward, as it involved an ‘invisible disability.’ Terry was able to present convincing arguments during my disability hearing and I could tell how experienced and confident he is in that environment. After my hearing, he would track the status of my case and keep me updated whenever there was any movement in the process. I could tell by his actions that he was dedicated to making sure he did all he could to assure I prevailed.

Kevin and Sylvia were extremely supportive, professional, and courteous throughout the entire appeals process. Kevin is not an overly aggressive attorney, but he is very experienced and knowledgeable about the process, and I believe that is why he wins favorable outcomes. He prepared me for the very long and invasive appeals process. He answered all of my questions and gave me very good advice on how to answer all of the judge’s questions. I would highly recommend LaPorte Law Firm to anyone who needs a knowledgeable, professional, and supportive attorney to help with Social Security Disability.

Kevin LaPorte is outstanding! He is the best attorney for Social Security, and I cannot recommend him enough. I had a tough case, but Kevin successfully tackled every problem related to my case. With his professionalism, knowledge, thoroughness, and experience working with the Oakland judges, he won this tough case. I obtained a fully favorable decision with back pay going back three years. Wow!

After interviewing multiple attorneys, I chose Kevin because of his professionalism, expertise, commitment, and his willingness to prepare me as much as I needed until I felt very comfortable and very confident to appear before the judge. No other attorney was willing to put in that extra effort or study my medical records as carefully as Kevin. It’s rare to find an advocate as dedicated to clients as him as well as someone who has experience with the local judges, which is very important, as you don’t want an attorney going in blind. Go ahead and interview a few attorneys; I’m sure you will reach the same conclusion: Kevin is the best.
