Mr. Cervoni represented me in a Social Security Disability case. He was extremely professional and listened to my case. At the hearing he was fully prepared and presented my case. He was honest and I would definitely recommend him to others and use him for future needs.

Because of my rare medical condition I had no hope of winning my case. I could not even get a proper diagnosis from a physician. But Mr. Cervoni did not give up and continued to help me. He was always easily accessible and kept me informed of the entire process. Because of his knowledge, guidance, tireless effort and encouragement I hung on and within a short period of time I won my case. Mr. Cervoni is not only an expert in his field he is a compassionate person who truly cares about his clients and their families. I am thrilled with the results and so glad and grateful I found him because without him I would not have pursued or won my case. If you need an attorney I would not look any further, he is your man, a top notch well respected attorney who genuinely cares. I would not go anywhere else. Thank you again for helping me and giving me hope when I did not have any.

I have spent my career being involved in government regulations or working on statutory language. This area of law is complex. We were completely lost until we retained Cervoni Disability Law. Thorough. Competent. In short, they provided excellent representation. We were very pleased with their service and, more importantly, the outcome.

Derek Cervoni assisted my wife and I with our claim for Social Security disability benefits after a brain aneurysm. Derek was one of 3 lawyers referred to us by Brain Injury Services, and after researching our options, we opted for Cervoni Disability Law practice. And very pleased we did.  Thanks, Cervoni Disability Law, and thanks to Brain Injury Services of Northern Virginia.

I want to thank Mr.Cevoni for helping me through the SSI filing process. Mr. Cevoni was always there when I had a question or a concern about my case from star to finish. I was never left in the dark with the process.  He kept me updated on what was going on with my case and what I needed to do as it was going forward.  I will recommend Mr. Cervoni to any of my friends and family members that might need SSI disability.

Mr. Cervoni was an excellent choice to handle my disability appeal before an administrative law judge. He is a specialist with years of experience in the SSA disability field (he had even previously appeared before the ALJ who caught my case); he adapted quickly to the changes in the appeals process caused by the covid pandemic; he got to know my case by reading the material I had already submitted on my initial application so that I didn't have to explain it to him on the phone; and he always kept me updated on developments and responded promptly to my requests for information...

Approximately eighteen months ago we hired Derek S. Cervoni to handle our Social Security claim! Both my wife and I found him to be professional honest, knowledgeable, sincere and kept any promise he made to us!  All of our expectations, questions and concerns were always met! His representation is the reason our claim was approved! Presentation is everything! I would absolutely recommend Derek Cervoni!

Mr. Cervoni and his law firm helped my mother win her case on the first try! He is very knowledgeable and professional. I always got a response to all my questions in a timely manner from him and his staff. He worked with us from the very beginning and helped us every step of the way. 100% recommend!!!

My attorney was always on top of my case. He was in constant contact throughout the process guiding me to get something for him or letting me know the next step in the process. If it wasn't for him by my side I would of had no guidance and I would have been all alone in this.

Derek Cervoni is a great lawyer and as others have written, he's patient, empathetic and a pleasure to deal with. My claim was denied twice yet Derek was able to secure for me a hearing before a judge. He patiently walk me through my testimony and made the process as stress free as possible. As a result, I felt comfortable and confident during the hearing. Thanks to Derek's counsel, my claim was approved and I couldn't recommend his work more.

Mr. Cervoni and his staff helped me through my appeal, reconsideration and my hearing. Mr. Cervoni and his staff were excellent they knew exactly what records and documents were needed to present at my hearing. They gathered and compiled all the necessary documents and records for my hearing. Mr. Cervoni always kept me updated on what was going on and was always available and would respond quickly by either phone or email to any questions or concerns I had throughout the process. Mr. Cervoni prepared me for my hearing and knew exactly what evidence to present as well as what questions to ask to both myself and the vocational expert. Due to this Mr. Cervoni and his staff we were able to get a fully favorable decision at my hearing. I am so grateful for both Mr. Cervoni and his staff, especially Mrs. Clarke and Mr. Camper-Barry for all of their help. I cannot thank you enough. If you are looking for professional, dedicated and knowledgeable representation through the SSDI process I would strongly recommend Mr. Cervoni.

I highly recommend Mr. Cervoni as your disability attorney. You will not regret his service. He is an extraordinary attorney and he made every step of the process easier for me. I'm very thankful for his amazing service!

Before coming to Mr. Cervoni I had been denied twice, and needed assistance appealing my case before a Judge. I received a call back from a friendly receptionist within a short while after submitting my online inquiry. After explaining my situation, I received a callback that same day from Mr. Cervoni to further discuss my case! From the beginning, he treated me as a person, with dignity. He explained everything, and always answered my questions same day with a email or phone call. My case turned out favorable, thanks to Cervoni Disability Law.

I had to stop working because of cardiac and pulmonary problems. I contacted Mr. Derek Cervoni about filing for disability. He explained the process and the needed documentation to me in thorough detail. He filed the application for me which was quickly approved. Mr. Cervoni was very thorough and experienced in handling my claim process. I was fortunate to have Mr. Derek Cervoni help me with my claim and highly recommend Mr. Derek Cervoni to anyone who is looking for the best experienced disability lawyer to help them with their claim.

Through out the whole process, when in doubt Derek always made me feel he is fighting for me. He is a 10 in my book!

Mr. Cervoni helped us secure SSI for our special needs adult son. He kept constant communication, was quick to follow up and clarify, persistent until the end. Highly recommend.

Derek S. Cervoni knew precisely what specific facts and medical tests results to present at my hearing. I highly recommend him.

I thought navigating and applying for SSDI would be similar to that of the VA benefits. It was not. Although 100% P&T, I was denied initial SSDI benefits. I researched Mr. Cervoni's record and contacted his office. His staff was pleasant and very helpful right out the gate. He accepted my case. I didn't look back; however, I was amazed at how swift and un-stressful my hearing was. After months of waiting, my case was over in less than 20 minutes. Mr. Cervoni was prepared to the point the SSA expert witnesses had no rebuttals. Would I recommend Mr. Cervoni? Yes, without hesitation. However, I would also recommend you as the client to help yourself out in advance by seeing the doctor(s),start gathering your medical records, and research all disabilities being claimed.

Mr. Cervoni helped my wife, who was suffering from a permanent brain injury, get approved on her first go around. A lot of people get denied their first time. Mr. Cervoni is well versed with social security methods, rules and regulations and was always contacting the necessary parties by phone vs email or snail mail. He kept us abreast of the case status throughout the whole process and made us feel confident that the case was proceeding as expected and not lost between the cracks.  I would recommend Mr. Cervoni to anyone who has a legitimate claim.

Derek is Awesome! I have applied for mental health disability on my own the 1st time and was denied. The whole process was overwhelming to me, so I did not appeal it. I then ran across a YouTube video of Derek S. Cervoni… I was sold. After watching his video, I was actually relieved, I had found my attorney. I contacted him the very next day and the process of filing for disability began again only this time I felt good about it.

Disability claims are a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma. The process is long and tedious. Please don't apply for benefits without counsel. Mr. Cervoni is patient, empathetic, responsive, and persistent. His familiarity with local Administrative Law Judges was especially helpful.

What a long and tedious process. After my 1st denial, my Mr. Cervoni accepted my case and worked with me very patiently and professionally answering all my emails and calls. I would suggest you contact him prior to submitting your initial application. Thank you Mr. Cervoni for always hearing me out when I needed to vent and for making sure all my questions were always answered.

I was referred to Mr, Cervoni when filing my claim for disability. I was not disappointed and was so thankful to his staff and him for helping guide me through the process. All of my inquiries were responded to timely, he explained the process to me in terms I could understand and ultimately represented me before my appeal before the judge. He was extremely knowledgeable and treated me with respect during the entire process.

As someone who was indigent and homeless at this time one year ago and with several co-occurring medical conditions, I was experiencing multiple challenges around this time last year. Several law practices were not able to take on new cases given the size of their caseloads or their preference for taking a case only on appeal. However, with the Cervoni law practice, he was able and willing to take my case from the time of the initial filing without all of the prerequisites being demanded from other law practices. My case was favorably decided in less than four months. ... Finally, Derek's familiarity with the local DDS and their local SSA offices made for an even smoother process which I would have never been able to navigate by myself. I consequently recommend Mr. Cervoni as the best disability attorney whom one can work with on any given appropriate and suitable disability claim.

Derek, was a lawyer who was attentive, hardworking, listened, understood, supported and was very responsive. Derek’s ability to decipher and work diligently in the background to win my case is someone I would recommend to family, colleagues and friends. Derek, has the ability to deliver results and I am grateful to him and his team for there hard work and dedication.

After my 1st denial, my Mr. Cervoni accepted my case and worked with me very patiently and professionally answering all my emails and calls. Many times he followed up a voice mail with an email. The SSDI process is long and tedious, I would suggest you contact him prior to submitting your initial application. Thank you Mr. Cervoni for always hearing me out when I needed to vent and for making sure I had a successful outcome.

Mr Cervoni was very professional and very diligent in submitting all the necessary paperwork. My disability claim was approved in less than one year. I would recommend Mr, Cervoni to anyone.

I contacted Derek for help filing for SSDI benefits and on our first phone call he walked me through the process, explained everything, and answered my (many) questions. Derek is exceptionally knowledgeable regarding Social Security law and the benefits application process. He is thorough, always available, regularly kept me updated on my claim status, and made me feel very comfortable knowing he was handling everything. I cannot recommend Derek enough and will continue to refer friends to his practice.

Derek is an amazing lawyer who handled our SSI case. He began the process with explaining how the application is submitted and the documentation needed. He communicated with both SSA and us regarding additional documentation needed, and meetings to attend, until our application was finally approved. He made the entire process smooth and easy. We are very happy with his service and expertise. We would highly recommend him and his staff.

I was very worried about finding a lawyer to help me through the SSDI process. With my new neurological condition, I didn't know what to expect. Mr. Cervoni and his staff were very professional, responsive, and understanding. Most of the time when I called, I either got a real person or they called me back quickly when I left a message. They were very clear as to what they wanted me to do and what information to provide. Thanks to Mr. Cervoni and his team, I just got awarded SSDI! I'm not happy to be disabled, but at least I've got the SSDI to help! Thank you Mr Cervoni!

Derek Cervoni represented my son in his disability application with SSA. His thoroughness, competence, timeliness, and courtesy went beyond my expectations and he was successful in getting my son approved for disability in 4 months. He responded quickly, usually the same day, to any questions I had. He made the normally difficult process of applying for disability very easy for my son.

The expertise the professionalism the downright respect and concern for you these people are doing what they do because they genuinely care! Thank you CDL for giving me my life back by winning my disability case!Bless you and yours Mr Cervoni!

We consulted Mr. Cervoni after our SSI claim was denied, and we were not successful with our appeal. Mr Cervoni helped us understand the benefits application process, and guided us through a successful SSA Hearing date, where we were successful in getting a disability ruling from the court. Derek Cervoni is highly knowledgeable and experienced in SSA claims, and extremely Professional. Mr Cervoni is highly recommended for the great service he has provided our family.

Mr. Cervoni represented me on my Social Security claim. He is Very professional and dedicated. He went above and beyond my expectations. Mr. Cervoni did a great job, always keeping me informed of any updates and prepared me before we had to go to court. When other lawyers wouldn’t take my case, he did. Excellent Lawyer.

First, allow me to say I have the utmost respect for Mr. Cervoni and his staff. About a year ago I was contemplating on filing for disability after working for a very strenuous, physical, and demanding job for 35 years. I am not one to quit as I tried several work attempts to continue my job after taking time off but my back and lower extremities we're really taking a toll on me which made it hard to function outside of work let alone work 14 hours a day at times. I decided to call Mr. Cervoni's Law Firm just to get a feel of what to do as I knew nothing about this process. Derek politely and calmly give me every answer I needed with no pressure at all, as a matter of fact, I even tried going back to work after giving him the information an indication I was going through with this case, I took his time and he was more than patient with me. I think this is another reason I called him back after my last work attempt. Mr. Cervoni asked me a few questions to get the initial application started and to submit a few forms, then he took over right away. Between Derek and Michael, both always promptly answered my replies or emails with issues that sometimes weren't even relevant enough for the case, but made me feel at ease anyway and extremely professional and courteous. They were very descriptive and detailed of what they needed from me and if I didn't completely understand they would walk me through it with no problem. Filing for disability is extremely difficult and technical and if any mistakes are made, it could prolong or even have your case denied. I believe it is extremely important to have professional help in this matter and Derek Cervoni is that man. I was awarded the first initial application which I heard is rather rare. I was speechless and relieved, to say the least! I would highly suggest using this firm for any type of disability through SSA or disability period! The man knew every question I threw at him with great detail and confidence. I can only imagine him in action at a hearing, even though ours didn't make it that far. I cannot thank him enough for what he and his staff have done for me and my family in such a short time. I was made to feel completely comfortable throughout the process with a lot of compassion expressed from Derek towards the disabled and special needs. Thank you, Derek and Michael! You changed my life for the better!

Very understanding and knowledgeable about Social Security disability law. Mr. Cervoni helped me from day one with filing the first application materials and moving it through the Social Security disability system/maze. I would recommend his services if you want to win your case.

We worked with Derek Cervoni to file a Social Security Disability claim for my husband. He made a complicated process go smoothly and explained all the steps and status of the claim along the way. I was pleasantly surprised how quickly my husband was awarded the benefits, with no rejection.

Derek ably handled our daughter's SSDI application all the way to a hearing before a judge. Thanks to his experience, expertise and persistence, she received full benefits. It helped to have someone who had experience appearing before this judge.

Mr. Cervoni was able to help me navigate the extremely complicated process of my SSD claim. He took control and made a very frustrating situation easy. After being rejected (twice) by SS, he was able to help convince the judge to approve my claim. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND Cervoni Disability Law!

I had nothing but a wonderful experience from the moment I contacted Mr. Cervoni’s office. From the initial intake person up to talking to Mr. Cervoni. If I had any questions I sent a e-mail or requested a phone call and I always received a quick response. I had an issue getting some of the requested information and his office was very understanding. Even after my case was closed I had questions and as usual his office answered all of my questions. I will make sure to pass his information along to anyone in need of assistance.

He is very knowledgeable about the SSA disability system, and uses this to his client's advantage taking care of virtually all the aspects of this difficult process. While he basically took over the process, he kept us informed every step of the way with clear and timely communication. We would absolutely recommend Derek Cervoni to anyone seeking assistance with their Social Security Disability claim.

Mr. Cervoni and his staff were very kind from the very first call. They clearly care about each client. They took their time to explain the process and kept us updated the entire time. I can't speak highly enough about him. I would recommend Mr. Cervoni to anyone.

Mr. Cervoni is very knowledgeable about how the system works and always responds in a timely manner. He always explained things to the fullest with me to insure that we were both on the same page.

We were referred to Attorney Cervoni by our family lawyer, following a disabling brain injury suffered by our daughter. After a careful consideration and review of the case by Mr. Cervoni and his competent staff, he agreed to represent our daughter and assist with her disability case. His office did all the legal paperwork and he represented our daughter in meetings and case review with SSA . He is very responsive and helpful, promptly responds to EM and phone messages. He kept us fully informed until resolution of the case. We strongly and warmly recommend Attorney Cervoni and his team, if you would like your disability case to be handled by a group of top-notch legal professionals.

Unfortunately I was diagnosed with Cancer and very soon after, was unable to work anymore. I was referred by a relative to Mr. Derek S. Cervoni who I couldn't say enough good things about. I contacted him via email and he responded right away. I must say, this is one of the most pleasant experiences I have ever had when dealing with anyone. He carefully guided us all the way, made sure all forms were correct, followed up with me on every question I had immediately. We got approved the FIRST TIME! for disability benefits and got me back pay from the day I was not able to work anymore. Other friend attorneys of mine say "this is not normal, he must be good at what he does," I can't agree more! Thank you so much for all you have done!

I highly recommend Derek Cervoni, who represented me in filing a Social Security Disability (SSD) claim. Mr. Cervoni was recommended to me by a partner at the Goodwin Procter law firm in Washington, DC. Mr. Cervoni was wonderful to work with during every aspect of my case. He was very approachable, and he was extremely helpful in filing my claim. He filled out all of the SSD forms for me, and he continually kept me up-to-date on the status of my case. I am very grateful that he was able to represent me in my SSD claim.

My wife and I have worked for years (with an advocate) to get disability benefits. Her doctors have diagnosed her with Parkinson's, Dementia and much more. Our advocate failed miserably and even embarrassed us in front of the judge. Derek was our last hope. He was kind, conscientious, attentive and thorough. He took our calls and clearly explained the processes and procedures. What we couldn't accomplish in years Derek accomplished in months. My wife's disability claim was approved due to the efforts of Derek Cervoni. We are so grateful!

When my wife’s SSDI disability claim was denied we lost all hope but then I hired Mr Derek Cervoni to file an appeal and persue her case with the Social Security Administration. His professionalism, knowledge, experience and the way he presented the case to the Judge was extraordinary. He provided the highest level of service and I am very happy and grateful to him that my wife’s disability benefit was finally approved.

Derek successfully guided Daniel's SSI claim through the Social Security system in a timely manner.

Attorney Cervoni helped us file a disability claim for our disabled son and guided us effectively every step of the way. There is a lot of paperwork involved but he helped us sort through all the documents and navigate smoothly through this system, which was totally unfamiliar to us. He also anticipated every step and kept us informed on what would happen next. Aside from being knowledgeable about all the ins and outs, Attorney Cervoni was very responsive to our needs. We highly recommend him.

Dealing with a severely disabling chronic illness can be treacherous on many fronts. Aside from the daily pain of living with disease, having SSA dismiss your case only adds insult to injury. Mr. Cervoni took on our case when another disability lawyer wouldn't due to the complicated nature of the disease. Not only was he there every step of the way during the multiple appeals processes, he was quick to answer any and all questions in a timely manner and guided us through the disability hearing process.
