Hired Attorney Evan Daniel Stein

Working with Evan was a pleasure. He always kept me in the know and made sure I understood everything. I didn’t have to do anything as Evan handled everything the minute he took my case. Evan communicated with me just about weekly throughout the entirety of my case. I truly appreciate his help and would definitely recommend Evan to others and will be using him in the future should I need legal assistance.

Sarah and her team got me from 78 percent, to 84 percent, to now 90 percent (so far). There are other claims we have on appeal so I would realistically think that we could possibly get to 100 percent sometime this year or early next year.

Thank you Berry Law, this law firm has helped me out with my VA claims. They have made my process very easy for myself and with no stress at all. A lot of time we as veterans see paper work and we are discouraged due to misunderstanding what proper paper work is needed of us but Berry Law and Corina Bartels have made my experience a great one. My new claims have been processed and now I can be more comfortable knowing I can come to them if I have any future concerns. Thank you again for your wonderful help.

I just want to say THANK YOU to Berry Law, Sean Shepherd for doing such an amazing job at getting me my rating. I reached out to them because I had all these issue from my service in the military and didn’t know which direction to go in order to get what I deserved. From the beginning he and his legal assistant Jazsmine Cryer have been excellent at advising me in a timely fashion. They are located in the Omaha office but that did not stop them from being effective communicators via phone or email. I loved that a fellow veteran was helping me with my case because he knows the struggle and everything we go through and I know that he really wanted to help get me what I deserve for my service in the military. I strongly recommend using Berry Law, they are great!! Thank you, Edward E

Since I have been out of the Military I have always had a pride issue with asking for help and fighting for disability and saw it as a weakness. After a meeting with Corrina Bartels and her helping me to realize I deserve fighting for my claim and disability..I opened a claim with the VA and with her help I was able to walk away with thousands of dollars I didn't think I qualified for and we are still fighting for more. If you served don't hesitate. You deserve it for all you have done. Thank you again, Corrina and Berry Law Firm!

Berry Law is AMAZING! Mr. Seth & Ms. Missy are absolutely incredible to work with. I was told about them by another veteran where I live in Arkansas. He said that they were the best in the business , and he could not have been more correct. I was at 80%, and a VA doctor diagnosed me with PTSD, however, the VA would not service connect me for it. After much taxing & difficult work, the VA finally service connected me for PTSD. I went from 80% up to 90% after that. I am beyond pleased with the results that I have gotten thus far, and Mr. Seth continues to work with me in order to service connect other issues that have arose.

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.
