"Applying for Social Security Disability on your own is a challenging and frustrating process. Having GAR Advocates represent me in this process was the best decision I could make. They assisted me on every aspect of the process and made the necessary appointments to all the doctors I had to see. I couldn't ask for a better outcome on my case. Thank you Cindy Olson!"

"I have been a client of GAR since 2013 and recently received my notice of award. Now that this ordeal is over, I would like to acknowledge case manager Marsha Butler for whom I relied on heavily. She not only gave me updates on my case she gave me a sense of having someone looking out for my best interest. It is due to her professionalism, efficiency and kindness these past three years that has made all the difference. She has made an extremely difficult situation bearable and for that I will always be grateful."
