Charles Stokes
There Is Not a Better Lawyer or Law Firm
My story is not that much different from others, I, having years of honorable service in the US Army and being denied disability benefits from the VA, until I reached out to Affleck & Gordon law firm, where I was introduced to Mr. Harry Brenner, whose first words were, "I'm here to help you." Not knowing that those words couldn't have been more true. Mr. Brenner went to work on my case, keeping me posted and updated on every aspect of the journey to my 100%. And, when the VA tried to reduce my disability 100% down to 80%, I reached back out to Mr. Brenner, and again he simply said, "I'll handle it"... and again he did just what he said... securing my 100%. I can honestly say with a lawyer like Mr. Brenner on Affleck & Gordon's legal team, there is not a better lawyer or law firm... And I will continue to recommend them to my family and friends as well as any veterans who are going through any issues with the VA... Thank you for all you have done for me and my family and friends.....

They Go Above and Beyond
I really appreciate Affleck & Gordon's willingness to answer all my questions even while I had not officially retained them. They were always friendly and remembered me, and they were very patient as I had many questions throughout the SSDI process. They were a referral from another law firm that was working on a related matter for us, and we're so glad that they suggested Affleck & Gordon. I can highly recommend talking to them about your situation; they'll really go above and beyond to help people out.

Affleck and Gordon changed my life.
Affleck and Gordon changed my life. I am a veteran with PTSD, kidney disease, and heart disease. Last year I was homeless with no financial support. After 1 year of having Affleck and Gordon represent me in my Veteran and Social Security disability claims, I have a home and I am able to support myself financially. They are my guardian angels. Even though I have never personally met the staff, I love them because they truly cared about my well-being. I recommend this firm to veterans and civilians seeking representation. They will fight for what you deserve. Thank you, Affleck and Gordon.

Attorney Harry Brenner is who you need as your representative if you are fighting for the benefits that you deserve and not receiving. Yes, I'm talking about your Social Security or Veterans Affairs disability for you deserving vets out there. Without having any second thoughts and with no hesitation on my mind, I would call him up not even thinking of anyone else. He comes highly recommended, and you won't regret hiring him.

I was treated as a True Veteran
This law firm was amazing, punctual, caring, and professional. I was treated as a true veteran and not just a number. They care about what you have gone through. Thank you Mr. Brenner, Mrs. Affleck, and the rest of the faculty. I am sending every veteran that I know personally who needs help your way. May God bless Affleck & Gordon. And happy holidays. - Veteran Jack
Sheena
And here we are….. APPROVED.
I had given up so many times on getting my VA benefits. I stopped focusing on me and helped my daddy get approved. He passed in 2023 and my daughter’s dad told me to contact Affleck & Gordon. They took my case and I still received rejection letters which sent me into a deeper depression. But their calls and updates gave me a sense of hope because they kept fighting when I had no fight left. And here we are….. APPROVED. I can’t express how grateful I am.
Yvette Mitchell
I highly recommend Affleck and Gordon!
I highly recommend Affleck and Gordon! The level of care this firm shows is truly unmatched.
Jackie
I absolutely recommend Affleck & Gordon
I absolutely recommend Affleck & Gordon for representation. I'm exceptionally grateful for Harry Brenner as the attorney who represented me thru the process. I truly believe his knowledge, professionalism, and commitment to my case is why I received a favorable outcome. Thank you, Harry!
BRENDA B.
I would recommend them 100%
Great firm. I would recommend them 100%. Kept me informed. Ms. Elizabeth went above and beyond. So very satisfied.
Michelle Kane
Harry doesn't stop until he achieves his goals.
I would like to take him in and share with everybody about what an amazing lawyer Harry Brenner has been for me. The VA had denied me on multiple occasions, and it's taken 5 years to get justice, but Harry has stood by me every step of the way. He's always been responsive to any of my questions. He's always let me know what's going on and kept me informed, and he fought for me at every turn. Even now he's still trying to get me up to 100%, and I believe he'll get that done because Harry doesn't stop until he achieves his goals. There's not enough superlatives that I can assign to what he's done for me and what he means to me. I consider Harry to be a good friend as much as my lawyer. In summation, if you need a VA lawyer, I don't think there's a finer VA lawyer in Atlanta than Harry Brenner.
Eric Whedon
A Unique Approach in Addressing VA Compensations
Harry Brenner and his team of legal experts at Affleck & Gordon have a unique approach in addressing VA compensations often filed incorrectly, in most instances by the Department of Veterans Affairs. Mr. Brenner and his team accomplish this task by fully understanding the needs of each veteran and ask detailed questions of each individual situation, to ensure nothing is left undisclosed or overlooked.
Parrish Marisco
Highly recommended
Very good law firm for my son’s SSI claim. Worked very closely with us to win the case. My advice is to hire them before you apply for benefits. Highly recommended.
Les Martin
Attorney Harry explained my case well
Affleck & Gordon represented me in my disability claim. Their team is professional and worked diligently on my case. They explained everything in detail and walked me through the process. They answered all of my questions to my satisfaction. I will always recommend Affleck & Gordon. Attorney Harry explained my case well, straightforward—10 star, the best ever.
Miss Lei
Harry represents people, not cases.
I chose Affleck & Gordon after my first meeting with Harry Brenner. I was referred to Harry from a fellow veteran during a VA visit. Harry has a great reputation for getting claims approved for deserving veterans. I could have gone with a law firm that was more VA-specific. It was Harry's reputation that drew me to A&G. However, once I met with Harry, I knew he was not just a lawyer. Harry is the people's lawyer. Harry represents people, not cases. My family motto is 'Never give nothing less than your best.' We live by that motto, and so does Harry! He will give you his best!!!
Byron Armstead
There was never a moment when I didn’t know what was going on
Ms. Dawn Croom and her team at Affleck & Gordon were amazing! We started my claim in early 2024, and it was just approved August 2025, without any appeals. From start to finish, there was never a moment when I didn’t know what was going on with my case. Ms. Croom was always in contact with me via phone or email throughout the entire process. Ms. Croom was always available when I had a question. I always felt like this was just as much her “fight” as it was mine. Thank you, Ms. Croom, for everything. If given the opportunity, I will definitely recommend you and your team to others!
C Walls
They Went Far Above and Beyond My Expectations
I cannot say enough about Affleck & Gordon. As a retired vet, who retired over 27 years ago, I did not think I had a chance of receiving anything for my disabilities. I was assigned to Ms. Mitchell and Mr. Brenner as my case worker and my lawyer. Their professionalism was amazing. They kept me in the loop constantly, and it put my mind at ease. They are second to none. I can’t thank them enough for how they treated me. They went far above and beyond my expectations. If you need any assistance, please give them a call. You will not be disappointed.

The success rate of appeals can vary based on several factors, including the strength of the initial application and any new evidence presented. Hiring an attorney may increase your chances of approval, as they can effectively present your case and address any questions from the judge.
Do I need an attorney for my appeal?
While you are not required to have an attorney, having one can be beneficial. An attorney experienced in Social Security appeals can help gather evidence, represent you at hearings, and navigate the complex appeals process, increasing your chances of success.
How do I start an appeal?
To start an appeal, you must submit a written request to the Social Security Administration (SSA) within 60 days of receiving your denial notice. The appeal process has multiple levels, so it's important to act quickly and follow the proper steps outlined by the SSA.
What happens at a disability hearing?
At a disability hearing, you will present your case before an administrative law judge. This is an opportunity to explain your disability and how it affects your ability to work. You may bring witnesses and present new medical evidence. An attorney can help guide you through this process.
