Choosing Bemis, Roach & Reed was the best decision for my SSDI claim. Mr. Craig Roach got all my medical information and kept everything perfectly organized, and attorney Jake Roach was an absolute pro representing me at my hearing. They turned a stressful situation into a manageable one, and for the first time, I didn't feel alone in this fight. I felt treated like a person and not just another case file. I am so thankful I found them! read more

This is by far the best law firm I've ever had the pleasure of working with. If you have a Social Security claim you will need help and BRR will give you the best odds to win. I dealt with many people over the phone and email. They were always available to answer questions or concerns. You couldn't ask for a more professional law firm. They actually care and will not give you false hope. I would use them again and would recommend you won't be disappointed. read more

The attorneys and staff at Bemis, Roach & Reed provided me with excellent service. They made going through the SSDI process so easy, smoothly, and as timely as they could.

My grandson has a mental illness that prevents him from obtaining and keeping a job, as well as fully functioning in daily life. We had applied for disability twice, and were denied. I was very distraught when I reached out to the law firm of Bemis, Roach, and Reed. Mr. Reed responded very quickly after reaching out to the firm, and began work on an appeal for my grandson immediately. Throughout the process, everyone answered all of our questions, were patient, kind, and understanding . We did win the appeal and had all of our questions answered. I highly recommend this law firm. read more

When my husband became disabled, we utilized the services of both Mr Roach, and Mr Reed to get his case fully settled. They and their staff went above and beyond to ensure that my husband's case was resolved positively. I highly recommend them. read more

The staff was very helpful and walked us through the appeals process. Responsive and kept us updated with any changes.

BRR was recommended to me by a lawyer friend when I found the need for a firm that specialized in Social Security and Disability insurance. From the initial meeting, they were open and honest about my case. Two years later, we are still working together they continue to stay abreast of my situation. I would highly recommend them to anyone having issues with their disability cases. When hiring this firm, you get a team that works together and will trive for results. Thankyou!! read more

5 Stars, Hire Without Hesitation! This firm is absolutely the best I have ever dealt with. They were relentless in their pursuit of my social security benefits. Also, they were accessible and, believe it or not, actually returned phone calls and emails very promptly. Mr. Bemis walked me through he appeals process and appeared in court on my behalf and fought steadfastly to accomplish my goal. I can NOT say enough wonderful things about Bemis, Roach and Reed. Top notch and highest recommendation! read more

I contacted this office in March 2016 after I researched on the internet with the office having good reviews. I had to appeal a decision made by the insurance company regarding my LTD benefits from my employer. After some confusion on what to do, I had only 2 weeks left to do the appeal and Lonnie Roach from this office contacted me right away. Lonnie right away took action for me. Everyone in the office working with Lonnie Roach did a great job of communicating with me by email during the last two years. After additional surgery was performed last year, Lonnie helped me to get my LTD benefits extended. Finally, a few months ago, Lonnie at his suggestion filed a lawsuit claim, which was settled with my employer's LTD insurance company. Lonnie helped ease my worries and improved my family's quality of life. I truly recommend Lonnie Roach and his office as your attorney. read more

This was an absolutely ridiculous experience. I sent a message through the website portal (which I have requested a copy of, but they refuse to send) explaining that we wanted to talk to someone about getting my father on disability for alcoholic dementia. I received a message from an Intake Specialist which stated "The SSA does not recognize drug-induced mental health conditions as disabling." This is patently wrong and I cannot believe they are spreading this disinformation to people. It is absolutely true that you can get disability benefits for brain damage and emotional damage caused by alcohol or drug abuse. Like, just google it. I responded back, challenging this assertion, and the intake specialist took A WEEK to respond to me. The intake specialist tried to walk her claim back, (saying that she should have included additional information/exceptions--that surprise, surprise, do probably apply to my case) and made the excuse that it took a week because she had to check with the legal team. Not only is this a ridiculous excuse for the discourteous delay (You can't send an email letting me know that you're going to check and get back with me?), but this flies in the fact of the entire reason this place probably has an intake specialist. You're having the intake specialist pass on legal advice from your lawyers now? Even worse, this person was so rude and dismissive. She offered to give us a list of medical resources (I came to you for an appointment with a lawyer, NOT medical resources) and after I expressed my displeasure with the entire experience, said "I'm sorry you're having such a struggle..." (Is this the intake specialist version of "bless your heart"? YOU appear to be the one struggling to do your job and YOU are the one causing the struggle.) I got this reference from another lawyer and from The University of Texas School of Law so I will definitely be informing both places of how terrible this experience was. It is clear that they only want to take on easy cases, not help people that may have more difficult cases. I can't believe these people weren't even willing to set me up with a consultation. They are not at all in touch with their community or willing to help people in need. And the fact that it took this long to get an answer even at the OUTSET of the case (even BEFORE they took my money) is not a good sign. I would like to remind everyone that the number one complaint about lawyers in this state is that they do not respond to their clients in a timely fashion. This firm does not appear to be very concerned about that issue. read more

I am forever grateful to the attorneys and staff at Bemis, Roach, and Reed. They were the only reason that I was able to receive my Social Security benefits. They were also sensitive to the nature of my claims. This work all came at a very stressful time in my life and the entire staff gave me a sense of calmness to get through the process. Amber Wooten was so encouraging and helped arrange everything from paperwork to appointments with the attorneys. I cannot say enough to them or about them to express my deep gratitude for their work. read more

Greg Reed impressed my family and I when we first met with him and he continued to impress me throughout the process. He is very good at what he does and knew exactly what to do. He was able to help with my social security case and with my private disability insurance case. read more

I enlisted the help of Bemis, Roach & Reed to apply for disability for my husband who has early onset dementia. From the very first phone call, I received excellent service. We were placed in the hands of Amber Wooten. She handled everything for us. Her communication was excellent. She was able to apply for benefits retroactive to the date my husband was first seen by the neurologist. I would definitely recommend BRR and would certainly use their services again. Thank you BRR! read more

Back in 2016 I was 45years old and found myself having emergency Neck surgery. I have been in a ton of pain since, From my neck down, I tried to continue working until 2020 when I just could not take the pain any longer. I applied for SSDI. I sent in what I thought was enough proof of ALL my medical issues. Bam, I was denied. Filed the appeal because of the time limits I think you have 60 days. I started researching Attorneys and came across Bemis Roach & Reed. They had a ton of excellent reviews so I called them and they accepted my case. I spoke to several people during the initial intake before before being assigned to Trisha and Mr. Reed, everyone was very helpful, professional, and patient because I had a ton of questions and if you are here reading this you to know this is a very emotional stressful time. Trisha was wonderful at responding to my questions quickly either through email or phone calls and if she couldn't answer my questions she would have Mr. Reed contact me. This is important that you have access to your Attorney. I have read other reviews where people never spoke to the attorney until the court date. My case went to the ALJ in Houston, where with the help of Trisha and Mr. Reed we won the case!!! During the hearing the Judge had brought in Medical Experts and one of them said he had looked over all 700 and something pages of medical evidence. Trisha and Mr. Reed are extremely thorough! So, when you think you sent in all the paperwork you need trust me, you didn't. Just let the experts at Bemis Roach & Reed handle your case! read more

I applied for disability and the law office of Bemis Roach & Reed took my case and took out all of the stress of having to deal with social security. I had looked at other firms and I was impressed with the approach of Bemis Roach and Reed. They called right away and let me know the process and what to expect. I filled out all necessary forms and they handled all the rest. A special shout out to Amber Wooten who was my case manager. She kept in touch during the whole process and kept me in the loop as to how my case was proceeding. She treated me as a person and not some case number. Thanks Amber and to everyone at Bemis Roach & Reed! read more

I chose Bemis, Roach, and Reed to represent me during my Social Security case, and I cannot express what a fantastic choice it was. Mr. Reed, and his associates, were incredibly knowledgable and answered all the questions I had along the way in a timely manner. It can be an overwhelming process, but having Mr. Reed represent me, really took the anxiety and uncertainty out of the process. read more

My wife was denied Long Term Disability from her job after an extended illness. I enlisted the firm of Bemis, Roach & Reed to help her obtain her disability payment. Lonnie Roach, and his staff, including Paul Cash got the results we wanted. They poured over countless files and Doctor's notes and worked hard to help her. They were able to negotiate a settlement that we were very happy with. The communication with Lonnie and Paul was outstanding. I was in almost constant contact with them the whole time. If you have been denied Long Term Disability Benefits or Social Security Disability Benefits, I highly recommend you contact Lonnie Roach at Bemis, Roach & Reed. They will do their best to help you with your claim. Art Del Negro read more

We met w/ Counselor Bemis and he told us our case would be an uphill battle but the goal was to win appeal before going to a hearing....that's exactly what happened. I can't give enough credit to their entire team. They shoot straight and what impressed me was their knowledge and experience in dealing with the red tape mess. I wish more people were as good as these folks! I would give them 6 stars if I could. read more

Very highly recommend for disability law issues. Everyone at the firm was professional and competent, and also compassionate and understanding. They helped turn an extremely stressful situation into something positive. read more

Legal issues are very difficult and emotional at best. Choosing the best lawyer for my case was a real concern for me. During the initial discussion Lloyd Bemis listened to me with compassion and understanding and made me feel comfortable. I was overwhelmed and he patiently explained the process I was about to go through, how long it could take and what I could expect. I left feeling - ok, I know what's going on now and I can make the best decision for me. When I couldn't talk to him he always returned my calls promptly. He gave me good advice and I believe it really helped to have an attorney who had so much experience and knowledge on my type of case. The road was long but Lloyd stayed with me the whole way never giving up. He and his staff were always willing to take the time to answer my questions and I always felt well cared for. I have great confidence in him and his staff - he knows what he's doing, is very professional, and you can trust him. Lloyd has become a great friend though this process. I would recommend him to any of my friends and family. read more

After nearly three years, my disability case has wrapped up with a judgement in my favor. Greg Reed was excellent, as was Craig, his paralegal. Between the two of them, they were always on top of my case, were there to answer any questions, and were extremely informative throughout the whole procedure. Not once did I feel like they put me on the back burner. Every phone call was returned promptly, and every email was replied to within 24 business hours. As opposed to the enormous disability law firms you see in ads, going with Bemis, Roach & Reed allowed me to deal only with the lawyer's paralegal, and the lawyer who would be physically present throughout the process. So, when the time came to sit in front of a judge, I was joined by someone I actually knew, had shaken hands with, and had joked with and conversed with in person, more than once. On top of all that, Mr Reed is a likable guy, someone that you'll be glad has your back in the fight that is applying for disability. Mr. Reed was an absolute rock of stability in the courtroom when it came time for my hearing, which greatly allayed my own nervousness. I initially chose this law firm to handle my disability case because their office is only a few miles away from my home, but that was merely an incredibly happy coincidence as I couldn't have possibly made a better choice. read more

I had a disability claim because of my disease that prevents me from working. My lawyer (Reed) was able to get all the documents and reports needed to fight my case. I won and I actually started crying because I was so relieved I would finally get some help with my medical issues. Highly recommend! read more

We would have never been able to fight for social security disability our self without their help. The customer service we received was outstanding!!! They always explained stuff to us that we were confused on. read more

Mr. Reed informed me up front that I had a difficult case, but he believed in it. After my hearing, he was very excited and we were expecting a favorable decision. Once decision came in and it was unfavorable, I reached out to Mr. Reed for further assistance with an appeal. A few days later, I received a letter stating that he was breaking contract with me. It's unfortunate to have someone shake your hand and inform you that they believe in your case and that things look great, only for them to kick you to the curb the moment something goes wrong. read more

After being denied for Disability, Lloyd Bemis and his team were able to get me approved. The staff was very accommodating, taking time to explain the appeal process and procedures. We had a few challenges to over come and we did so with flying colors! I highly recommend this firm! read more

Mr. Bemis was great!!! He helped my husband get his appeal for SSDI overturned on the first go. I have been told that rarely happens, and it did for us. He genuinely cares about getting the best results for his clients, and in a timely matter. He returned all of our calls promptly and I would reccomend him to anyone looking to get a favorable decision on their social security claim. read more

I doubt if it's common for the average person to understand eligibility for Social Security benefits resulting from a medical disability. Eligibility becomes even more complicated if a person's work disability is also involved ( where work insurance and Social Security each pay a portion - if a person does in fact qualify for Social Security ). These were my circumstances and Mr. Bemis and his staff ( Trisha ) navigated me from day 1 to day end where I received my back pay and future benefits. Thanks Bemis, Roach & Reed!! read more

I recommend Bemis, Roach & Reed wholeheartedly! Greg Reed worked with me almost three years to get Social Security disability. His paralegal, Craig Roach, was also outstanding. They were extremely responsive in returning my calls and answering my questions. I am sure I wouldn't have gotten disability without their outstanding representation! read more

HUUGE mistake going with this team, but what can I say, I'm in terrific pain and sleeping most of the time due to injuries. I needed a simple appeal for my social security disability case, and after I first sent in my documents, their paralegal emailed and said that they didn't take those kinds of cases any more. Then I called and spoke to someone else there, who said that yes they actually did take those cases, they were one of the main types of cases they worked on. I then spoke to the paralegal again and he was confused - basically lying to me because he didn't understand words in order on a page. I submitted all of my paperwork and heard nothing else from them. Today I received a denial from the SSA and since I have a broken neck, back, and pelvis, I have to thank Bemis Roach and Reed for my continued agony and utter lack of any way to support myself. Go team! I truly hope you find yourselves in my shoes someday soon. read more
