Downard & Associates represented Jaime and helped her win her case. Here is her story:

​

 

“The day I got home from the pain doctor, I heard the message on my answering machine. My case was approved! I fell to my knees and started crying. They came through- they did it, just as they said!   I still have that message on my answering machine to this day.”  -Jaime

​

 

Jamie was recently diagnosed with deteriorating disk disease and was in a constant state of pain.   What was once a normal life became a struggle every day with countless physicians’ visits and constant nagging pain.

​

Before choosing Downard and Associates, Jamie talked with several other attorneys, and said,   “Downard told me the truth.  Up front, they told me the good and the bad….just the facts.   The other attorneys I spoke with only told me what I wanted to hear. I appreciated their honesty about the journey I was about to begin.”   Jamie adds, “David Downard is my hero.  He gave me my life back, not just monetary,  but mentally as well.   When you have always had a paycheck and then you have nothing, you don’t even feel like a person anymore, so his firm gave me my diginity back,  which is priceless.   I always felt like I wasn’t deserving because there so many others worse-off than me, but with the help of my doctors and Downard & Associates, I began to understand that I was/am truly disabled.”

​

“When I got my first check, I couldn’t believe it was real.  I still have that phone message on my answering machine.  Whenever I get down in the dumps, I listen to it.”
