Mr, Tripp is very knowledgeable & knows how to get the job done. After being denied SS Disability twice when filing on my own, Mr. Tripp got all the information needed from my various medical providers, gave me guidance & helped me to prepare for my hearing which we won. I am extremely satisfied with my experience with this law firm.

I ALWAYS tell people to go to Tim as he is an individual "that gets it done." Tim listens to what you have to say and gives sound and easy to understand advice for the layman with no understanding of law. He lets you know what must be done on both sides of the table. Very personable. No messin about. If you go with Tim, you go with one of the leaders in the field.

Timothy Tripp was recommended by a friend. It was possibly the best advice I have gotten in years. My case was extremely challenging. Tripp and his staff were phenomenal to work with. They dedicated themselves to standing besided me for 3 years to wade through the red tape. Had it not been for the skill and advice of Tripp PC, I simply would have given up. If you are seeking professional, diligent and ethical representation, Timothy Tripp is the attorney for you.

I feel very fortunate to have had Mr. Tripp as my attorney for my S.S. disability case. He is smart, savvy, an excellent communicator, understands the system intimately, and gave me a real feeling of hope throughout the long process, where before I had felt only anxiety. If you are a disabled Iowan and not receiving S.S. benefits, contact his office without delay.

Mr. Tripp provides excellent legal advise and services as it relates to Social Security issues. I would most definitely refer my family and friends for his assistance in a field that often times is very frustrating for the general public

I was impressed with Mr. Tripp and his staff, they are a high energy sharp minded group that gets the job done. I wouldn't think twice about using their services again. Their fees were discussed at the beginning and reasonable. I also felt that I could call and get a quick response, which I really appreciated.
