I am an Attorney who represents Federal and Postal workers from all across the United States, including Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, Europe, Japan, the Philippines, etc. As this is a “Federal” issue, and not a “state” issue, my license to practice law extends everywhere and anywhere. I have been practicing Federal Employee Disability Retirement Law for over 25+ years. FERS Disability Retirement is a “paper presentation” to the U.S. Officer of Personnel Management. If the application is denied twice — both at the Initial Stage of the process as well as at the Second, Reconsideration Stage — then an appeal can be filed with the U.S. Merit Systems Protection Board.
This is the person that you want to help you with your case. He always is there for any questions that you may have and is extremely thorough, honest, and knowledgeable. This is a stressful process and he takes care of all The difficult paperwork. I’m so grateful that I hired him!
Mr. McGill changed my life. Disability retirement is a stressful process. Having Mr. McGill on my side made it less stressful. He did all the work and I was approved. I highly recommend this fine man. Shaun Postal Service (retired) Nebraska.
Mr. McGill gets the job done for a fair price, trust me not easy to find a gem like him. Don’t consider anyone else. It’s a lengthy process so be prepared but Mr. McGill got the disability first time around. Thank you so very much.
I am a Special Agent late in my career and became disabled with arthritis. I called Mr McGill and immediately knew he was the right person for me. He put up with my many phone calls, talked me through a Fitness For Duty Evaluation and was extremely responsive. He sets the bar for this type of proceeding.
Our initial consultation is always free. We are available for a free initial consultation to help you determine the merits of your case, based on your specific job requirements and the nature of your medical conditions.
We’ll help you to evaluate the medical or agency documentation you already have in your possession (official job requirenments, light duty offers, workers compensation correspondence, resignation form, etc.) to assess where you are legally and medically standing at that time.
We’ll instruct you how to deal with your Agency. We’ll let you know exactly what to expect from them. We’ll couch you specifically about the most appropriate time to let them know about your plans to file for Federal Disability Retirement benefits.

We’ll prepare and submit all of the proper OPM Disability Retirement forms for you, including both the “informational OPM Forms (SF 3107) and “specific content” OPM Forms (SF 3112).
Attorney McGill charges a “flat fee” which includes representation for all three stages of the Federal Disability Retirement process. That means that in the unlikely event that your claim gets denied at the first stage, you will not need to worry about paying any additional fees. He never abandons a client, and sees the client from start to finish, to whichever stage it needs to be taken to in order to obtain the disability retirement benefits.
The U.S. Office of Personnel Management is under constant pressure to reduce its expenditures by cutting down its payouts by billions. We understand this Administration’s effort to cut unnecessary and wasteful expenditures from all across the Federal Government.

It is important to understand that, in filing an application for Federal Disability Retirement benefits under FERS or CSRS, there is no “table of medical conditions” by which one may qualify. Instead, the focus is upon the symptoms exhibited, as opposed to a formally diagnosed medical condition.
The Merit Systems Protection Board (known by its acronym, “MSPB”) is comprised of Administrative Law Judges who oversee a variety of Federal issues, including wrongful termination issues, suspensions, pay disputes, overpayment issues, etc.,
