**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

after going through fighting SSDI for three years three years I got denied I googled disability attorney and the first one that came up was Rob Levine so I gave them a call and they were awesome. My caseworker Roxanne called me to check on me and I called and left messages especially ended up in the hospital three years of fighting it started five years ago that's when I had my first two strokes in 2021 my a little better so my first denial I just sucked it up. I thank God that I was able to work but then I don't know where my third stroke that happened in 2023 then from everything was downhill. I thought I would be one of those people that would be dead before Social Security took me serious. But then I called Rob Levine, and my Social Security case let's just say at least I'll get some money before you know ( saying those words,I will not)but this takes a heavy burden my family. So it may seem like they don't do a lot, but we don't know what they're doing in the background. So be patient. Just make sure you call leave a message it takes 24 hours before they can get back to you because their case load is heavy but be patient because patience is a virtue I know this personally . Thank you, Rob, Levine, and staff. 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 want to give a 5-star review to Rob Levine Law, especialy Mr. Gerry Cuadra my case manager, for the outstanding support he provided throughout my SSDI appeal. The Social Security Disability process can be extremely stressful, especially after being denied and having to go through the appeal and hearing process. Gerry was there to help guide me through each step. He was professional, patient, knowledgeable, and always willing to answer my questions and provide updates about my case. What stood out most to me was Gerry's communication, compassion, and dedication. He made me feel like my case mattered and helped take a lot of the stress out of the process. When I needed information or had concerns, he was there to help. I am extremely thankful to Gerry and the entire Rob Levine Law team for the work they put into my SSDI appeal. After everything I went through, receiving the news that my case was approved meant a great deal to me and my family. Thank you, Gerry, and thank you Rob Levine Law, for standing by me throughout this journey. I truly appreciate everything you did for me. I highly recommend this firm to anyone who needs help with an SSDI claim or appeal. Five stars all the way! read more

While needing to have an attorney is not a pleasant situation, my experience was amazing. I was an emotional mess but Kendra Aranas was patient and spent the time that I needed to get through our meetings. Her demeanor was professional yet emotionally supportive. She checked in periodically just to touch base. she went above and beyond to help me through this. She kept me updated when there was a change. I am incredibly grateful to have had Kendra to work with. Attorney Lyndsey Kelly was wonderful. She was thorough and clearly explained the steps that we would be going through in court. She was patient and gave me the full amount of time that I needed. She was very professional and competent in court. I was so very lucky to have the great lawyer that she is. No promises were made. Just honesty and hard quality work on all sides. Thank you both! I will refer others to Rob Levine and will use them again if I ever need a lawyer again. I give them a 10 out of 10! 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 applied for disability/social security in late January. Family friends & doctor's urged me to hire an attorney. Rob Levine attorney at law appointed Sarah May asy case manager & I'm proud that Sarah May is my case manager. Sarah May is helping me with everything that I can't & couldn't do. Sarah has the patience, compassion has been my rock. Sarah has been my shoulder to lean on many times. I know that Sarah works hard to help myself & people like me. If it weren't for Sarah I'd be lost in a world of chaos. Thank you Sarah May for all your doing for me & thank you for continuing to do for me. I asked God to bless you & I know God will. Thank you Sarah. read more
