About Law Offices of Barbara B. Comerford

Caring and Compassionate Lawyers and Staff

Law Offices of Barbara B. Comerford concentrates its practice in the area of disability law. Since Ms. Comerford began the private practice of law in 1985, she has made it her mission to make every effort to approach her clients' needs with kindness and compassion. Our staff reflects that commitment. Our associates, bilingual paralegals and legal assistants take the time to listen, and to assist clients through the maze of forms, and bureaucracy which can often overwhelm them. And when our clients' legal needs require outside assistance, we refer them to others who may be able to help them. In that sense, we take a holistic approach to the law. We understand that a call to our firm usually reflects months of anguish about whether to retain an attorney to help navigate through the disability process. Contrary to the public perception, most people call a disability lawyer when they simply have no other choice.

While Barbara Comerford began her legal practice in 1985 representing personal injury plaintiffs, as well as disability clients, in the late 1990's, she made a decision to concentrate her practice on assisting disabled clients. Since that time, she has referred all personal injury cases to law firms with vast experience in personal injury matters. However, Ms. Comerford encourages those clients to continue to reach out to her if they have any other legal questions or concerns.

Our firm remains committed to zealously representing clients with disability claims against the Social Security Administration, long term disability insurance companies (ERISA and individual disability income policies) as well as state disability pensions. Ms. Comerford has more than two decades of experience in this field and has earned a reputation for working hard to ensure that her clients are protected, and that their rights are zealously guarded. Please contact our firm for a free consultation. We look forward to helping you!

Barbara's associate Matthew Cantwell represented me in applying for Social Security Disability. Matthew took the time to explain the entire process, he filed all of the necessary documents on a timely basis, and my claim was promptly approved. Matthew kept me informed as to progress and was very responsive to all of my questions. I highly recommend Matthew and Barbara Comersford's firm for any assistance you need in their areas of expertise.

I would be remiss if I did not share my positive experience with Law Offices of Barbara Comerford. The firm provided me with an extraordinary attorney Jennifer Manger. The journey was long but I was fortunate to have Jennifer represent me. Grateful and relieved, when I received my Notice of Decision. Fully Favorable! Approaching the hearing, at the hearing, and post hearing Jennifer was extremely knowledgable, efficient, and most important to me, Jennifer’s care and concern. A million thanks

Attorney Sara Kaplan has been an excellent attorney taking time to always answer my questions with the patience of a saint. She understands how disability can be very upsetting and makes me feel comfortable that I can turn over what she needs and know she will take care of it. Thank you Sara for everything you’ve done for me. Maura McGarty

Hired Attorney Jennifer Manger

After two years of working with The Law Offices of Barbara Comerford I was finally granted Social Security benefits. As much of a nuisance as I'm sure I became, I was always greeted with patience, professionalism, and proficiency. The lawyer that handled my case, Jennifer Manger, was incredible! She always personally returned my calls and never gave me answers she wasn't 100% sure about. I don't know what I would have done without her.

Jennifer and her team were always compassionate with respect to my disabilities and responsive to my questions. They did a great job with setting realistic expectations. They helped me navigate what forms I needed and showed me how and when to fill them out and submit them. Jennifer helped me understand what was important to document from my ongoing medical treatment. She appealed an early unfavorable decision, and represented me at my hearing which resulted in a fully favorable outcome.

Absolutely the best! My attorney, Jennifer Manger and her team worked together so smoothly and professionally. They made me feel so at ease and were there for me the whole time if I had any questions. I have Fibromyalgia, CFS and other chronic conditions. I was so afraid of being denied, but Jennifer was so understanding, patient and strong in her representation of my case for Social Security Disability. I received a fully favorable decision. Many thanks to Jennifer Manger and Elena Rojas!

So much thanks to Miss Jasmine Dickerson and the Barbara Comerford Law firm for representing my case and winning a fully favorable decision.

She helped prepare me so well for when we went to the hearing and I was so happy with the results. I know my pain will never go away but thank you Jasmine for making me feel better. So recommended, Thanks.

Sara Kaplan and Matthew Schrieks were way beyond my expectations! They answered my questions thoroughly and were extradonaryly patient. They have completely relieved my stress of having to deal with my State of MA Disability Retirement request and UNUM (my long term insurance provider salary assistance) so I can focus on my health issues. Their paralegals have been amazing too! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this firm! I could not ask for more. Thank you Sara Kaplan and Matthew Schrieks for everything!
