I wouldn't recommend a dog use Parmele. Please don't use them. I have been trying to get my disability for the last eight and a half years. In 2015 I had gotten ahold of parmalee and had to get a new case started. I went through all of their $@!#% and finally got a court date and apparently I must have filled out some form stating that I wanted the judge to be there in person instead of doing a video. the judge was upset that he had to drive from Springfield Missouri to Joplin Missouri and raked me over the coals for about 10-15 minutes. Before court started I asked my attorney if he had gotten the paperwork from my specialists in Kansas City and he said he didn't know and it doesn't really matter that's exactly what he told me "it doesn't really matter " I was like yes it does matter but I know now why he said it doesn't matter because the judge was $@!#% and he wasn't going to give me my disability anyway and this guy knew it he didn't even know how many times I had filed for disability after it was all said and done they sent me a text wanting me to come in and fill out another application for the disability and they said for my second time this is my third time that I have to refile the attorney they assignment was a joke he didn't even stand up for me while the judge raked me over the coals I kept trying to get his attention and he just acted like a whipped pup with his tail tucked between his legs. He was scared to death to say anything to the judge I blame them for me not getting my disability and they wouldn't take my case to federal court so I had to find another attorney out of New York City that took my case to the federal level so now I've wasted 4 and 1/2 years on parmalee and I have to wait another at least a year if not longer to beat it in federal court they had all kinds of information from several doctors about my situation and still couldn't get me my disability it's horrible the way these people are they don't know what is going on especially that Ashley Baines if you get stuck with him tell him you want somebody else if you do go with parmalee but he's just at a horrible attorney the whole place is horrible. I got another text from them asking me to give them a call and I told them that they could go straight to $@!#% because I wasn't ever going to be contacting them again and that they had better not contact me either. the way they treated me was horrible I'm already ill and not well in the first place and then you get treated like s*** from your attorney's office it's just b******* I'm not even giving them one star just don't waste your time.
