★★★★★

This firm is extremely knowledgeable with the Veterans Affairs appeals process. They took me from 20% to 80% in less than 5 months and when I call them they always answer the phone if not they get back to me in a timely matter. I recommend Jackson and MacNichol very highly, they are the best!!!

Client

For over 9 years now I've been waiting for my inherent rights as a disabled veteran and Jackson&MacNichol have repeatedly told me to be patient about my 100% disability appeal! But all that's happened is more waiting for something to happen, but the only thing that has happened is asking for new forms to be filled out, over and over and over again. As of September 27 2025 it's been 9 years going nowhere and I've repeatedly asked the Attorneys to contact the office of The Inspector General to demand that the VA act on the Order Of Judge Doolittle that he remanded my case back to the Veterans Administration to correct their mistakes in my records which indicated that I am 100% disabled. That was over 3 years ago and still nothing has been done about this matter by my attorneys at Jackson&MacNichol, then over 3 years ago the VA granted my current wife as my dependent and indicated that payment would be processed, but nothing was processed and now a person I've never heard of at Jackson&MacNichol; Jennifer Contreras, reached out to my email wanting more details about previous marriage which I supplied over 3 years ago. In the last month I've sent more messages to my Attorney Devin Sorkin and Andrea Jackson without any response from either of them! Additionally I've sent messages to the Attorney representative Megan Potter for over two weeks now and no response either! What sort of Legal Representation is this supposed to represent for any disabled Veteran? I'm just supposed to continue being patient with repeatedly filling out new forms and getting them more information from doctors and hospitals and historical records? Who's working for me, besides myself? I've actually begged for help when I was homeless and living in my car and no one did anything about it only filled out another form and afterwards they didn't pursue anything else to help me. This continued neglect has led to such deep depression and emotional distress that I've attempted suicide several times in these 9 years of waiting for someone at Jackson&MacNichol to do something other than telling me to be patient? In those 9 years Jackson&MacNichol I have supplied the attorneys with over 1300 pages of documents and evidence and met with several professional doctors who have also provided evidence of my 100% disability! But still nothing has been done by the attorneys at Jackson&MacNichol! All I see is Nothing being done and only promises and promises and promises and asked to be patient? Where does patience run out and neglect come in by the attorneys who are supposed to be responsible and representing me as a Disabled Marine Corps Veteran since 1972 over 53 years ago! I've lost all hope and faith in my attorneys and now I'm just waiting to die and preparing for my cemetery plot and funeral plans. Since I've had 2 heart attacks and an Aortic Valve replacement and several minor strokes as well as multiple seizures from my injuries in the Marine Corps, with several serious seizures being near death seizures! But who cares about it or my life and my family at Jackson&MacNichol? NO ONE!Additionally, Devin Sorkin and Andrea Jackson were negligent with my documents medical records that I'd sent them over the past 9 years. I'd requested them to file my Cervical Spinal Stenosis associated The diagnosis of spinal stenosis and Epileptic seizures with my Cervical Spine injuries in the Marine Corps in 1972. I submitted documentation and medical records for over 6 years concerning my Diagnosis from medical Neurologist and treatments at multiple Veterans Medical Centers and hospitals which they failed to provide and failed to do. Over 9 years of waiting for them to do as they were supposed to as legal representation for my veterans disability and they did nothing. And recently Devin Sorkin just dumped my case without saying anything to me or advising me who's supposed to be representing me. There are a few good attorneys at Jackson&MacNichol, but Devin Sorkin and Andrea Jackson are not included as good attorneys for their failure in professional representation .

I am absolutely thrilled with the outcome of the work by Jackson and MacNichol. Without them I know the results would have not been possible. I would strongly recommend to all my Veteran colleagues. Thanks again

Client

It took from 2008 until 2013 for me to receive any compensation and then it was just 10%. The staff turnover is crazy. The employees seem angry and they let you know just how unimportant you are. Terrible experience. Don't use them. I don't believe that high star review rate. It really was a nightmare dealing with this company.

Client

★★★★★

I am not typically a person who does reviews. Jackson and MacNichol deserve every accolade available. Through the almost 7 years of waiting for this they constantly encouraged me to be patient. Sometimes I was not. I am forever grateful to them.
