What our clients say about us

We appreciate the opportunity to help you get the benefits you deserve

Cliff has been a  fantastic lawyer for me. He was immediately very attentive to my needs and  was able to advise me on the best course of action to get disability. He won  my case for disability on the first attempt and has been very responsive to  my questions even after winning the case.

Nicholas Gulliver

My experience with the law firm of Clifford Weisberg was wrought with questions & uncertainties from the onset. But thankfully the staff & Mr. Weisberg were seasoned professionals in providing quality service in a very timely & efficient manner. They were readily available to answer all my questions & to provide assistance at every turn of the process. And for that, I am eternally grateful. They made me feel as if me & my situation truly mattered. I will recommend this firm to family and friends who need legal assistance any day. Thank you all very much.
