Have you consulted or hired this lawyer?
Leave a review about your experience with this lawyer.Working with Mr.Rinck was an amazing experience, he won a case for migraine and truly was such a strong communicator as well as knowledgeable in this field. The experience speaks for itself, if you have any opportunity to chose a lawyer this is the best lawyer in grand rapids for disability cases!! Thank you for all of your work!
Too Mr. RINCK An his secretaries , an all the staff unseen. Thank you for working hard an fighting for me its been a long hard road, an for me my prayers were answered when he took my case. Mr Rinck took my case when Covid closed everything ,an greatful to meet him on the day of my hearing . 10/6/2022 I would give my attorney an the staff 10 plus for customer service an 10 plus for helping clients fighting for Social Security. Thankyou much Sincerely Tammi D
Well versed in his work to streamline you through the process. Staff always friendly. They answer their phones, drop ins welcome.
In spite of the ruling. I still was extremely pleased with my atty.
We are waiting on the government. Takes years.
When I originally met with Mr Rinck about my case he assured me that he had much success with challenging cases like mine. Fast forward to 18 months later…. His response to questions is just send us in the forms and we’ll get the ball rolling. Save yourself the headache and pick someone else.
Never make the same mistake as I and others have made in hiring this bubbling clown of a lawyer. His appearance is sloppy and his communication skills are horrible. His so called knowledge of the law is a joke, constantly has to ask others of their knowledge of the law.
Don't make the same mistake as I did as use this clown. You'll be better off representing yourself. All the positive ratings comes from fellow colleagues who write favorable ratings for each others. He doesn't know the law. Always gives in to the otherside. Lies to your face.
It was a once in a lifetime opportunity for me because i could no longer work once the semi hit me. But luckily i worked very hard the years prior to my accident and was barely eligible for SSDI benefits. Attorney Rinck promised to fight for my disability claim, but once he won the SSI portion, he quit "because of my age." He seemed resentful that i might get benefits at such a young age. But i rightfully earned my credits and was medically diagnosed disabled within the appropriate timeframes. He just took out his anger on me and I'm sure he will do it again. Don't let it be you. Attorney Rinck hooked me and promised me, but didn't finish the job.
I used rinck and I'd wished I'd listen to a close friend of mine and would have stayed far far away from him!! They need negative qualities in this survey to show his true qualities!!!!! Non-trustworthy Poor communication and responsive skills Value of money is that of his own Dosen't really know his profession
