“Should be 10 stars! Not the typical lawyer experience in any way. Every person we spoke with was just as kind and professional as the one before. They kept in touch with us; we never had to call them, they beat us to it! In the end we didn’t need to proceed with our case, and they were just as kind and professional about closing everything. I found them last minute, online, right before we were giving up the fight. How blessed we felt to have their help. We didn’t have a lawyer on file. We do now! Hopefully we’ll never need one, but if we do, or know someone who does, this is our first call. Thank you so much for your help Audrey and team!”

“Eric Buchanan & Associates have gone above and beyond to help me with my disability claim. It has been very challenging to handle a disabling illness and try to deal with an insurance company that has fought me at every turn to try to deny me from receiving the benefits of my policy.
Ren and Audrey navigated me through the last 2 years of struggling with my insurance policy carrier. They guided me through several denied claims, poor communication, and shady practices of the insurance company, and they helped get the information from my doctors that were not very cooperative, to say the least. Even the receptionist that answers the phone was helpful! I feel like I got lucky to have found them. If you have a tough claim, they will put in the work to help you.”
“Absolutely wonderful team! Highly professional and dedicated. Took my case when others didn’t want to and won! Everyone who worked was me was very attentive. They made me feel like they really care and I felt highly supported during quite an uneasy time. Could not thank them enough. I highly recommend working with this attorney firm!”

“They are working hard to insure a good outcome. They are all friendly, and caring.”
“In a time of great despair I am glad that I had Eric Buchanan & Associates by my side. They quickly demonstrated their professionalism and willingness to answer my questions. I also had Ren Orlic, the best legal assistant, available for questions any time I needed.”
“I worked with Audrey (attorney) and Ren (legal assistant) at Eric Buchanan & Associates to file my long-term disability appeal after Lincoln Financial Group cancelled my policy.
They were professional, friendly, and kept in touch with me during the long appeals process. Without their help, I know the insurance company would not have reinstated my benefits.
Having someone to manage the claim now that I am receiving benefits again has given me extra peace of mind too. I would recommend EB&A to anyone who is forced to fight to get the benefits they are owed.”
“I was very happy with the personal service I got from Eric Buchanan & Associates. My attorneys and paralegal (Noah, Hudson, and Madeline) were easily accessible, had a complete grasp of the law and the individual facts of my case, kept my case moving as fast as possible, and developed a strong case strategy. I couldn’t be happier with my choice to bring them on my side!”
“What a joy to let everyone know how a team of professionals will do their very best for you! Easy to speak with and understands the disability laws better than others. This team does not give in, they dot their, “I”s and cross each “t”. Keeping you posted and explaining what each step will be and what is expected. I found that my experience with challenging my disability insurance company was nothing new for them. Familiar experiences with these insurance companies did not scare or intimidate Eric Buchanan. He gave me his undivided support, wisdom and due diligence in my claim! He won for me and I am humbly grateful for he has let me live my life as well as I can. Thank you my friend.”
“After an unexpected diagnosis and subsequent death of a parent at a young age, the last thing you ever want to hear is that the life insurance benefits you’re counting on to pay medical bills and funeral costs will not be coming. I had the misfortune of receiving this news and being shut down at every turn when trying to pursue answers on my own. I was then fortunate enough to be referred to Buchanan and Associates. Mr. Buchanan listened patiently to all of the details of my trial and error approach and said he thought he could help. Within a week, he had already looked into my options and reached out to the insurance company on my behalf. This particular company did not make anything easy, but Buchanan and Associates fought for me for years. I was given regular updates and asked to provide additional information only a few times throughout the process. They made a terrible situation the best it could possibly be, and ensured that the insurance was dealt with without my ever needing to speak with them or do anything at all. I can’t begin to explain how thankful I am for their competence and experience. The path was incredibly rocky and full of turns so outlandish you’d consider them fiction is you hadn’t seen it. Despite this, everything turned out better than I could have ever expected. Consulting Buchanan and Associates is easily one of the best decisions I’ve ever made, and I strongly encourage anyone with an insurance-related case to seek their counsel.”
“My case was a complicated one. Eric and Dacey worked tirelessly to handle everything in a proficient and professional manner. I am very pleased.”
“On August 2018 I was notified by my union that I was going to have my disability pension cut drastically. After pleading with my union and many sleepless nights I decided it was time to find the very best disability law firm To represent me and possibly other disabled members of my union. Eric Buchanan and Associates came very highly recommended. They assured me that if my union backed down that I would not owe them a thing. Hudson Ellis, Dacey Cockrill and the rest of his team went to work. When this fantastic team got involved my union resended. Maybe it was out of the kindness of their heart or the best disability law firm getting involved in my case but either way Eric Buchanan and associates kept their word and did not charge me a dime. The integrity, knowledge and professionalism of Eric Buchanan and associates is second to none!! If you are looking for the best disability law firm look no more, Eric Buchanan and associates are a top-notch law firm that you can trust, if they tell you something they will stand by it. I cannot thank them enough for the help they gave me and all of my disabled brothers and sisters in my union !!”

Anytime anyone has ever mentioned disability to me, I make sure they get your contact information. I make sure they hear my story. I will always do so.”

I highly recommend Hudson and the entire firm to anyone who needs advice and representation for their disability concerns. Great personality and willing to go the extra mile with help and advice.”

I really appreciated his efforts and that of the whole team in working on my case. The team has been very helpful with any ongoing needs or questions that I have and I really appreciated their efforts during a very difficult time. My experience with them has been excellent and I would easily recommend them based on my experience.”
“Eric Buchanan and Associates recently handled a disability case for me. From my first meeting, I found Eric to be extremely knowledgeable, quite personable and down to earth. This also extended to every member of his staff that I interacted with (Barb, Molina, and Chandler). My phone calls and e-mails were always returned promptly. His Staff consistently kept me informed about any and all developments in my case. I couldn’t have picked a better law firm. My case was settled much quicker than I had expected and my award was substantially larger than I thought was even possible. I’m very thankful for all the hard work they did on my behalf. Eric Buchanan and Associates has my highest recommendation.”
“I was discouraged and without hope. From the moment I spoke with the staff at the Buchanan law firm, I knew I had called upon the right people to help me. Nadia made me feel as though she cared about my case as much as I did! Melissa spoke to me with compassion and understanding! And when I arrived at their office, Barbara made me feel welcome, offered me a beverage, and made me feel like I was at home!!! My attorney, Chandler, took over two hours of his time to sit down with me as I expressed every emotion ranging from anger to sadness! He listened until it was time for him to speak. When he began speaking I knew in my spirit that I had come to the right place and God had raised up a group of warriors to fight an overwhelming battle that I could not fight for myself!!! Now it’s in their hands and I’m just waiting for the day when we all celebrate the victory that is to come!!!”
“This is one of the best teams around for SSA. I sought the help of two other SSA law offices before talking with Buchanan and Associates PPLC and in am so glad that the others did not accept. I was placed in the best hands dealing with the hard times and legal facts of SSA that anyone could ask for. If anyone needs true professionals to help in their time of need they need to forego all other calls to any other offices and call Eric Buchanan and Associates PPLC Eric, Scott, Cassey, Barbara and the whole teamwork for you to get you what you deserve in your time of need after dealing with all the SSA hoops and loops.
Great people and expert knowledge make up Erich Buchanan and Associates as a team. [I] would suggest any and all give them a call if you need the best hands dealing with SSA! They helped me, my father, my uncle, my uncle-in-law and many others through their years of knowledge. Great people and knowledge be on what anyone could imagine. Thank you for your time and thank you, Erich Buchanan and staff!”
“After serving my country for 30 years in many hostile areas including Iraq and Afghanistan and returning with injuries the VA classified me as a 100% Total and Permanently Disabled Veteran. I never imagined my biggest battle would be back home first in the divorce court and then with my long term disability benefits. My experience with the law firm Eric Buchanan & Associates was nothing less than amazing. They made the experience much better than I had ever expected. Throughout the almost 20 month process they kept me well informed and ensured I understood everything starting with our agreement.
While most legal proceedings are by their nature not very enjoyable, throughout this period Scott Wilson and Damon Miller made it a refreshing and a positive experience considering the circumstances. I would highly recommend Eric Buchanan & Associates Law Firm to any individual that needs wise legal counsel as to their specific situation. They will be honest with you starting with an initial assessment as to the merits of your case. Again I owe a great deal of gratitude for Eric’s team. Thanks for all each [that] of you have done!”
