Working with Mrs Garrison and Mrs Crow was simply a pleasure. Mrs Crow is very knowledgeable when it comes to dealing with the VA. I’ve been trying to get my benefits increased with the VA off and on since 1989. Once I contacted Berry Law my problems were solved and with the help of Mrs Garrison and Mrs Crow I was awarded an increase and am now being paid at the 100% level. I can’t thank them enough, so great to work with them, they’re extremely knowledgeable. If you’re a Veteran and need help with a claim, it would be in your best interest to contact this great law firm! Berry Law is the real deal and they treat Veterans with the utmost respect while fighting for our rights, because they’re Veterans too!

Seth chambers was my attorney and I'll tell you this. If anyone else on the berry law team is as good as him consider your case won. I went from 40 to 100 percent with him. They kept denying me and he kept fighting. Thank you Seth and the berry law team.

From day one I was impressed with my lawyer and team. Everyone was very professional and very informative. I had some doubts when deciding to reach out to a law firm to help my case with the VA but that disappeared quickly after meeting with David. Everything happened the way he explained and he was very patient with all of my questions and concerns. Once we got things started and the first results came back David and team actually went above and beyond by relooking at all of my decisions and continued to fight for me until I was due exactly what I was deserved from the VA. I will recommend the Berry Law Firm to anyone I know who needs help fighting the VA. If I could give more than an Excellent rating I would.

Montana Crow is my Attorney.. If you have ever tried to file the correct forms required by the Veterans Administration you know what a challenge that is.. Very knowledgeable of my VA disability claim Kept me up to date on progress. Very understanding of veterans medical conditions.. A appeal was required for a claim, attorney Crow handled all the appropriate forms and filed the appeal in a very timely manner. I was kept in the communication process, If you need a attorney.. Call Berry law.. Thank you Tom Paine

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.

For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings™, please visit our Ratings Page on Martindale.com and our Frequently Asked Questions

Avvo Client Reviews

Ratings and reviews are feedback from people who have either consulted an attorney about an issue (but may not have hired the attorney) or people who hired an attorney as a current or former client and provided their feedback to our sister site, Avvo.com.
