I was so unsure about how everything works! I talked to Micheal and he walked me through every step and believe me had to review items over and over to me due to being so confused! Micheal is very pleasant and completes the work with great results and is always looking after your benefits. I am so happy with my results and thankful I had a great patience smart man
Mr. Akashian represented me on my ssdi and it was nothing but the best. He and his staff were very professional and got the job done. Not only is he a great lawyer but he's down to earth great guy. Thanks for everything you did for me. Thanks
Michael Akashian, in my opinion, is one of the best, if not the best attorney in The Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Michael represented me in two matters, one for Worker’s Compensation, the other for Social Security Disability Insurance. My cases were challenging, but he prevailed on both matters. Michael is knowledgeable, affable, on top of his game, and a straight-shooter. He is well-versed in both Worker’s Compensation and SSDI laws with considerable experience. I cannot express my gratitude, thankfulness and appreciation for all he has done for me in my time of distress. I HIGHLY recommend Michael Akashian.
I was injured on the job and heard of Mike Akashian from a co-worker, and hired Mike to take on the State. To say the least, he and his staff made me feel comfortable through the whole process. Not only have I got back all my sick time used due to my injury but am currently on Disability Retirement and could have never done it without Attorney Michael Akashian.
I hired Michael Akashian due to a work accident. He was very efficient, professional, and he and his staff are very friendly. The outcome on my case was 100% on what I hired him for. I would highly recommend him.
For over a year, on our own, my wife and I unsuccessfully tried to obtain benefits from Social Security for a work related injury that left me permanently disabled. We were referred to Michael Akashian by another attorney. Michael not only took our case but within six months won our case. Michael answered any and all questions, promptly returned our calls and addressed all of our concerns. Michael Akashian.....Professional, Knowledgeable, Affable, Courteous. John
Michael has always been and is currently in command of how the law applies to all workers compensation cases. He has always made me feel comfortable with the medical issues that I currently have and how it is applied to the workers compensation laws. He has given myself and my family the impression that he could bring resolution to the uncertainty of the complexities within my case and he has delivered in his efforts. He is an exceptional attorney a true leader among his peers. I could tell while at the court house other attorneys would go to him for advice and they were very gracious in how he presented his advice. His execution in the presentation of my injury was flawless in the way he protected my rights as a recipient of my benefits. He has exceptional vision and takes command over the issues that employer’s representing attorney is trying to dismiss. I really could tell that there is a reason why so many clients decide to hire the services of this attorney Most recently he presented a case for permanent loss of function for the injuries that I had incurred during my work related injury. Three days later I was awarded a favorable amount by order of the judge. Michael, has also represented me in requesting disability retirement for my injuries and won! His staff is polite, professional and helpful every step of the way during your workers compensation case. -William- client since 2011
