Law Offices of Shirley Vu PLLC

"It took me 3 1/2 yrs of trying to get on disability. Thanks to Ms. Vu i was able to get everything done within 6 months. Very professional. On top of getting information to me. Explaining everything I would need to know. Thank you for all you've done for me!"

"I have physical and mental disabilities that make social interactions and work an impossibility. Shirley Vu and her office helped me navigate the years long process that wouldn’t be possible for me to do alone. Every step of the way they were kind and thoughtful, if anyone is in the a situation where they need help going through the disability process I would highly recommend them"

"If you need an attorney for your Social Security Disability application, I would highly recommend Shirley Vu. My case was a very difficult one, with no single issue that by itself would warrant disability very easily, and made our case very difficult to represent. Shirley warned us that the odds were against this case being approved. However, Shirley took our case for our Social Security Disabilty claim and hearing before the Administrative Law Judge, after being denied initially and starting with our reconsideration phase. Be mindful that the reconsideration phase and then the time to the Hearing before a judge was over a year-and-a-half. This does not include the 13 month time for the initial application to be denied- your lawyer CANNOT speed this up, and most of that time waiting for a hearing is just keeping, and gathering data from, doctor appointments. Shirley and her assistant, Valerie, were very helpful and very nice during this whole process, and were diligent in gathering all the paperwork from all those doctor appointments- also keep in mind that this is a collaboration with the Lawyer, so be diligent to make and keep those appointments. Shirley and Valerie always answered any questions we had, and communicated back to us very quickly- most of the time within minutes (during business hours, of course)! During the hearing before the Judge (done via phone conference in this case), Shirley represented me very well, summing up my multiple issues in the best way possible, asking me questions to put all my issues in the best light possible. Now for the hard part- no matter how good your lawyer is, you still only have about a 50-50 chance of winning approval for your disability- and in Texas, the odds are worse than most states. A good lawyer can make a difference, but only to a point (they do make a LARGE difference as to oppsed to having no lawyer- the stats back this up). In our case, Shirley was a good lawyer, AND we won approval! But had we lost, it would not have dimished Shirley's work and the professional way she represented us! Thank you, Shirley and Valerie! Forever Grateful, Donna"

"The law offices of Shirley Vu and her team have provided me with professional and caring help. I have consistently been informed through the process by Valerie. My messages and phone calls have been handled with a sense of urgency. They have given me a positive outlook. I highly recommend the law offices Shirley Vu. Along with her team. Thank you"

"Shirley was recommended to me by a colleague in the special-needs / disability field who stated that "She is one person who truly cares about the welfare of her clients". My own experience reinforces that statement. I retained her services for my 60 year old disabled uncle who was in desperate need of medical insurance. Though a patently difficult situation from the outset, she accepted the case and ultimately secured his SSI & Medicaid. He is infinitely better off for procuring her services, and I do believe she does take a personal interest in each case. Many thanks from the Long Family!"
