I tried the disability process on my own and got denied. I tried again and got denied again. It came to the point where I had to prove my disability to a judge. I knew I should get an experienced lawyer to help me. I found Tex Chalkley in the phone book,and I am glad I did. Within two months Tex represented me in front of the judge, and did such a great job that I got approved for disability on the spot. On a similar note, my experience with the entire team at Chalkley & Smith was terrific.
My husband is on disability, so I knew it was a very involved and complicated process. One of my doctors recommended that I call Tex Chalkley. Tex had also helped one of my good friends get disability and improve her quality of life. It's been less than 9 months, I am already receiving benefits, have received medicare, and am in a much better position than before I hired Tex.
I received injuries from an accident at work, and was in the middle of a Work Comp claim. I also applied for social security disability. At first I applied for disability without the help of a lawyer. I was denied that first time. Luckily, I obtained Tex to represent me. Regardless of all the hoops that the social security administration makes you jump through,Tex represented me well, he and his firm took the burden of all the work on,and got me the benefits I deserved MUCH sooner than expected!
I knew getting disability wasn't going to be easy. I applied twice without a lawyer and got denied. I contacted a social security lawyers organization to help me find a good lawyer. They gave me Tex's number. Even though I was denied when applying on my own, Tex made me feel like I had a chance. I think that Tex and his team did a great job building my case and getting me the disability that I deserve. I hope anyone needing help calls his office.
I hired a lawyer for social security disability. Once I hired them, I didn't see or hear from them again, unless I tracked them down. I needed a new lawyer. I found Tex in the yellow pages. I felt good about Tex and his staff from day 1. I have heard horror stories about the disability process, and actually experienced some of it myself with my first attorney. In less than 6 months after hiring Tex I have already been approved for social security disability, and received my first few checks.
I was injured at work and was no longer able to work. I was referred to Chalkley & Smith by a family member, and I'm glad I was. Within 1 month of hiring Tex, I had a surgery scheduled. Tex was able to get me a settlement without going to court.Once we took care of my work comp injury, we filed my social security disability claim. Before I knew it I had my first disability check in my hand. I recommend Tex and Chalkley & Smith to anyone that needs help with work comp injuries or SS Disability.
I heard how difficult it is to apply for disability, so I wanted to get a lawyer to help me with this process. I was referred to Chalkley & Smith by one of my doctors. Tex and his entire staff are great. Everything was explained to me very clearly, and I felt comfortable during the entire process.In addition to how difficult I heard it was to apply for disability, I also heard that it took a long time. The entire process with Chalkley & Smith took less than 9 months.
Tex is a wonderful person, and he has helped me through a lot. Sometimes I lost hope,got frustrated or impatient, but Tex and his team reassured me, held my hand, and motivated me to continue seeing my doctors and proceeding with my claim. When I called Tex, I either got a call right back or an answer right there on that call. Everyone at the firm is extremely polite and helpful. I would most definitely recommend Tex and his firm to anyone who is injured or disabled and unable to work.
Mr. Chalkley and his entire staff are efficient, extremely competent, "get the job done" people. They are also friendly, compassionate people with a lot of patience who will never make you feel bad and are always there to help. I recommend them highly.
I hired tex for a work comp injury and it drug on for many years. While my work comp lasted over 12 years I believe it was finely settled. Then we went for my disability and that was 4 years and 3 denials but we eventually won that to but it took alot out of me and I don't wish that on anyone. It's exhausting totally. Cathy and tracy are very helpful to. You'll wait but tex will get it done for you eventually.
