**Beware of Rob Levine & Associates - Unethical and Incompetent Representation** Our experience with Rob Levine & Associates in handling my husband's Social Security Disability case has been nothing short of a nightmare. I cannot emphasize enough how deeply disappointed and frustrated we are with their services. Firstly, without our knowledge or consent, they contacted the Social Security Administration (SSA) claiming to be our children's minor representatives. We can only assume this was part of a scheme to collect a larger contingency fee, as the standard fee is capped at $7,200 or 25%, whichever is less. This move felt incredibly deceitful and unethical, raising serious concerns about their integrity and motivations. Communication with them was another major issue. After our initial representative was abruptly switched (something that appears to happen frequently based on other reviews, particularly on Yelp), we were left in the dark. Most of our attempts to contact them were met with silence or unhelpful responses, making an already stressful situation even worse. It's clear from other reviews that this lack of communication is part of a broader issue within their corporate culture. To make matters worse, they mishandled crucial details of my husband's case, including getting his disability onset date wrong. This mistake cost us thousands of dollars in benefits that we should have received. When we confronted them about it, they offered no meaningful solution, leaving us with the difficult decision of whether to risk a re-appeal or accept the loss. Rob Levine & Associates' handling of our case was not only unprofessional but also detrimental to our financial well-being. They failed to fulfill their basic duties as legal representatives, and their actions have caused us significant stress and financial loss. I strongly urge anyone considering their services to think twice and look elsewhere for representation. **Stay far, far away from Rob Levine & Associates.** read more

this is a horrific law firm. do not take your case here. they will send a person out to your house and they will ask questions and leave. you will never ever see an attorney and you will never get calls back and you will go from one paralegal to another and then one year later you will discover they did not have your records and screwed up your entire case. then; no other attorney will take your case because they will say it was with another attorney for a year and they will say they sent you your file but they have not. you literally will be left with thousands of dollars of bills; life long injuries; medicare liens and blue cross liens and all because this law firm does not act like they are lawyers and they do not meet with their clients and what they are doing is enough to sue them for legal malpractice. other lawyers will tell you to report them to david curtain; who is the disciplinary board for attorney's in ri; but the disciplinary board in ri has not done anything about any complaints in ri but for one. unless you are raped; they do nothing. leaving you with life long injuries and debt because they practice law illegally does not matter. do yourself a big favor and never ever go to any law firm where you do not meet face to face with the attorney handling your case or a law firm that has no receptionist; no secretary and literally nobody in the building or office but one person who says he or she is a lawyer and then wants to take $15,000 from you and then does nothing for three years. ri needs to have a much better disciplinary board and ri lawyers are getting away with malpractice all day long. read more

I called Robert Levine law office because I needed an Attorney for Social Security. They are very nice and sincere. They really care about you and your problems. And I mean I called them a lot. Crying my eyes out. Michael Puente was awesome very nice man. I ended up not wanting to go through with it. He didn't charge me anything. Then I decided I have no choice because I can't work. He took. Me back and gave me a new worker Gerry Cuadra he also was so kind. They both helped me so much with my case getting all the paperwork together. They assigned me to Dee Hansberry she was my Attorney. I really didn't care for her at first because she was kind of rude because I didn't understand some things. And I felt like she was rude I was going through a lot. When we went to Court she did an absolute great job she won my case. Thank you Dee Hansberry. I just have one problem. I called her because I didn't understand what the Judge said. And she sent me a text back and I took it like she was being rude talked to me like I was stupid. I didn't appreciate that considering I have a lot of mental problems. And she just pretty much discarded what I asked I felt like I got on her nerves by asking my question. And it was the first time I ever called her. Like I said I have some problems could have been how I took it. And it made me not want to reach out to her again. I need to see the Judge again because they are not giving me my SSDI or my back pay. Only Social Security. And the Judge said I get it all. read more

Rob Levine is 300% an Amazing Law Group. I have experienced nothing but excellence from the entire Firm, no matter who you are working with as your case manager at the Firm. My husband had been trying to be approved for SSDI for at least 10 years prior to working with Mr. Levine's Team. It was stressful, frustrating and seemed like no one was listening at the VA Administration. Just a lot of paperwork with denials. Mr. Lavine got all our information from the VA and our doctor's information and started the process of the appeals for us. Mr. Levine eliminated the stress and all the agonizing headaches, of communication with the VA. He took all the exhaustion and burn out of defeat we endured, and turned it all around for us. My husband was not awarded what he was due for his severe injuries while serving in the military. Mr. Lavine appealed all the denials. Within a short amount of time we got backpay from the time we first started the VA case, back 10 years ago a 6 figure sum payout. We were floored, ecstatic and amazed that Mr. Levine did it so quickly. He doesn't stop fighting for you, and he will get you to 100%. I highly recommend his services. He was answered prayer for our us. read more

I originally called Morgan and Morgan when I wanted to get help w applying for SSDI. They said I wasn't eligible bcuz I had already retired. I called Rob Levine and his assistant Marichu Dianon handled everything for me. She called my local SS office on a three way call and waited on hold for 40 minutes to make sure I was eligible. She filled out the application by asking me all the right questions and submitted it for me on my behalf. I really couldn't have done that myself, with the am state I was in. She also got me a few extensions for me when I was missing deadlines to return forms from SS. She was very kind and explained things well. My case was approved in 3 months. Part of that is bcuz I'm over 60, but Marichu really helped and I'm glad that she was the one talking to SS for me. She was kind and calm and easy to talk to about my health conditions. I highly recommend her! It was worth the money to not have to figure this out myself. Thank you!! read more

Hazel has been a great point of contact for my disability case. She is the person I send all of my doctor visit updates to, and she does a great job serving as the liaison between myself and SSD. Although Hazel was not my first contact at the firm, since taking over my case she has been much more consistent with communication than my previous contact. She has regularly taken my phone calls, confirmed my emails (which in any given month could be approx 8 different physician visits that need updates, answered my questions when needed, and has always been willing to help. Hazel also has a very positive attitude, which has made the process easier and less stressful. I appreciate her support and dedication to my case. Although my cased is still ongoing, I truly appreciate that Hazel has been helping me. I only wish she would have been on my case from the beginning. Hazel, THANK YOU! read more

I want to take a quick second to brag on my case manager Alyanna Caragan. Working with Alyanna has been a fantastic experience and a breath of fresh air from the start. Being a military veteran, I have always been big on communication and I can't thank her enough for her communication skills. Alyanna is professional, responsive, and an excellent planner who always goes the extra mile. She has broken down the complex process for me into manageable steps and has kept everything on track while also keeping me informed every step of the way. Alyanna is also incredibly empathetic and has made me feel heard throughout the entire process. She shows genuine compassion and is a true advocate for my needs, which makes a huge difference. I've always felt confident knowing my case is being handled efficiently and professionally. I would highly recommend Alyanna to anyone needing assistance. read more

The staff members are so pleasant & very patient with clients. The receptionist is so busy but makes it look so easy and every call she answer super friendly. During my intake session the paralegal was very nice. Rob came in and spoke with me during the session. He did not look down at me because of the facts to my case. I did advised them I had all the needed information he required. With that additional information, I believe he knew that I was sincere about the day in question. Since, then they have help me get all the needed medical attention for my injury. I am very pleased with how they are handling my case. They have provided step by step updates regarding where the case stands. Any time I have questions, they are very quick to respond.. Which is very helpful and puts my mind at ease. Thank you for making this process easy.. heather read more

I was in the process of claiming Disability when I chose the help of Rob Levine & Associates. It all started on September,2016. It started off slow with their receptionist. (if thats what they call themselves). I was not getting anywhere with the first two people contacting me.. It is when I got Kathleen when I got my angel. 3rd one was the charm . She was effective in many ways. She kept me updated frequently, sent me the proper paper work & also informed me of what I needed to be doing & when to do it. To get me ready for my court date in February 2018 with their lawyer Jen right by my side.. And as it turns out as of today April 3,2018 I received the best news from Kathleen that I was awarded the disability. So a big thank you to all who work on this with me.. Sincerely Bonnie Fox read more

I will start by saying how difficult our system is to navigate through, I had nearly lost faith in it until I found the right law firm to assist me with this! Rob Lavine and his staff were great! Diocel who works with them was great, she was easy to talk to, always answered asap and made things very easy for me to get through! To have someone understand and listen is very helpful! Ive been in so much pain for so long not being able to do the things in life anymore that I loved, its hard going from the caregiver to being cared for, it's true that by the time a decision is made, you've lost everything! Being approved won't change my pain, but it did restore a bit of my faith in the system! I owe it to Diocel and the Law office of Rob Lavine! With that I say thank! read more

I can't say enough good things about Rob Levine & Associates. After years of fighting for disability and feeling like no one cared, they helped me finally win my case. Attorney Dee Hansberry was amazing. She treated me like a real person, not just another file on her desk. She listened, understood what I'd been through, and fought hard for me. My case managers, Roxanne Navels and Alexander Rosas, were also wonderful. They were patient, supportive, and always kept me updated on what was happening. This process was long and stressful, but this team made me feel less alone through it all. I can honestly say they changed my life. If you're going through the disability process and need someone who will actually care and fight for you, I highly recommend this firm. read more

strongly recommend Rob Lavine and associates. They really helped me receive Social Security disability benefits after I thought it was lost. I first worked with Harley Davia, she got everything started, Very nice person to work with. Then I worked with Ana Contreras, who is one of the most patient person I know and has a lot of answers for every question you can think of. Then when it was time for court, with preparation and working with the Judge as well Attorneys Ellen Elwell, Dakota Smythe and Jennifer Hinchey. I started this process when I was living in Vermont and in the middle I moved to Georgia so we had to switch Social Security regions. Even that curveball couldn't stop the "Heavy Hitters" Thank you Attorney Lavine and all your team read more
