I attempted to file my disability retirement application on my own in 2010. Little did I know that my agency within the Department of Homeland Security could hold up the application at every turn. They failed to file required forms to OPM and would not even reply to written requests from OPM. After being contacted by OPM numerous times about the issue, I contacted the Harris Federal Law Firm. From the time I made my initial inquiry to the time my application was approved I was kept in the loop with almost weekly emails or telephone calls. If I made any inquiries, I was contacted within the same business day and the staff of Harris Federal Law Firm was willing to answer my questions in detail. I never would have been able to navigate the OPM application on my own. It took nearly four years of reconsiderations and resubmitting documents, but the Harris Federal Law Firm persevered and in the end got my application approved.
I would recommend the Harris Federal Law Firm to any Federal employee who is going to file an application for disability retirement. Whether it takes months or in my case four years the legal fee is money well spent for peace of mind and excellent service.
