Federal Disability & Retirement Law

I had the privilege of working with Kimberly Berry, on a contract that had complicated terms and significant monetary implications, in an area where I hold zero knowledge. She took my case on short notice by the holidays and worked with me even when the whole world was vacationing, to meet deadlines. She is extremely professional, knows her stuff top to bottom, and most importantly is a true fighter for fairness with an unwavering passion for employees.

Nobody ever wants to be in situations calling for representation, but Kimberly gave me ammunition, poise and helped me come out with my integrity and peace intact. She is worth way more than her fee and I would not sign an employment contract without her consult ever again.

I had an exceptional experience working with Berry & Berry. From start to finish, their team demonstrated professionalism, compassion, and a deep commitment to their clients. Kim Berry and Aidan Connor were consistently responsive, thoughtful, and thorough in every aspect of their work. What stood out most was their integrity and dedication to delivering high-quality legal services. It’s clear they take great pride in their work and truly care about the people they assist. I’m grateful for all their help and would highly recommend Berry & Berry to anyone in need of knowledgeable and trustworthy legal counsel.

I would highly recommend this firm. Mr. Berry quickly grasped the details of my case, and worked diligently towards a favorable resolution. I really appreciated his expertise and concern for my situation.

Berry and Berry was a great firm to work with, and specfically Attorney Melissa Watkins was FANTASTIC! She was very knowledgeable, experienced, and hard working! She was able to quickly assess my case which was previously mishandled by a horrendous law firm and did outstanding work to reach a resolution in the matter. I would not hesitate for a second to rehire Melissa should I need legal representation for the same or similar issue.

Melissa truly went above and beyond on my case. She was patient and answered all questions using her vast experience. She very accurately predicted future events and provided excellent guidance which matched what was, or was about to occur. Her communication was equally excellent, returning questions and calls at her first opportunity to respond to frequent changes and information. Thank you Melissa and Berry&Berry!

A caring, skilled and relentless team that won’t quit until they get the results you seek. Highly recommend.

I cannot say enough great things about Berry & Berry. I reached out to them regarding my security clearance, and I knew I was in good hands from the beginning. Both John Berry and Todd Hull took the time to truly understand my situation and provided clear, actionable advice throughout the entire process. The entire firm was always prompt with communication, incredibly knowledgeable about the law, and showed a level of professionalism that put me at ease.

Not only was John Berry diligent in handling every detail, but he also worked very hard to ensure a positive outcome. He kept me informed at every step, explaining complex processes and legal terms in ways I could easily understand, which made a stressful situation feel much more manageable.

What truly stood out to me was his compassion and dedication. John showed genuine care about my situation and went above and beyond to provide support.

If you are looking for a firm that is not only incredibly skilled but also trustworthy, responsive, and compassionate, I highly recommend Berry & Berry. I would not hesitate to work with them again in the future.

When I started my litigation against my employer I was unable to find representation in my local area as I worked for a government institution. I was desperate having never been in a situation of this magnitude. Upon calling the firm the staff listened and guided me to one of the most effective attorney I could ever imagine. The dignity afforded me and her extensive knowledge of federal law was unparalleled. Ms. Watkins is a GEM. She was upfront forthcoming and forthright. When she surmised and articulated salient facts, she just Got It. I would hire HER again. If you find yourself in litigation with the US Government, Department of Defense she is the attorney to consult with.

“Highly recommend Berry & Berry. Kimberly Berry picked up a tremendous mess (from previous attorney) of a case that was about to expire. She not only picked it up but revived it and was able to arrange a settlement after many months of stagnation. I can’t thank her enough for her professionalism, tenacity and timeliness throughout. Thank you Berry & Berry for your EXCELLENT service!”

“John Berry and Aidan Connor! Security Clearance GRANTED! IF I COULD GIVE AN INFINITE AMOUNT OF STARS I WOULD. If moving mountains was a thing that men could actually do, they can do it! My situation was definitely difficult and one for the books. I mean a checkered past for sure. Recovered from it and actually walk the walk. Just the same, very CHECKERED! They are professionals, they are knowledgeable, and they really took the time and care my case needed. I was going to be denied and I truly believe if I had not put them on the job I would be! I am cleared NEVER TO WALK THAT OLD PAST AGAIN but these guys made it happen, truly eternally grateful! Praise God and KEEP MOVING MOUNTAINS Gentlemen!”

“Attorney Todd Hull and his team at Berry & Berry were fantastic. I had an issue with my security clearance that was favorably and quickly adjudicated. Todd walked me through the process, set reasonable expectations, told me what documents to request and was often the voice of reason when I was understandably a little angry sometimes. More importantly, he took the draft response I had written and all the documents I provided and turned it into a crushing response that blew the government’s case to pieces. He told me to expect a response in 3-4 months and that I would probably have to go to court to get a fair shake and hope for a favorable outcome. Two weeks after submitting my response, I received word that my clearance had been reinstated. This would not have happened without his excellent work. I also think he was extremely fair about billing. I feel he produced a product that required more hours than he billed. He’s a great attorney and I’m so glad I found him.”

“Absolute strongest recommendation. John and his team were professional, knowledgeable, and experienced. He knew the appeals process backwards and forwards, he prepped me for what last ahead at each milestone and was especially thorough.”

“Outstanding legal representation. Highly recommended. John Berry and his team are first class professionals. Melissa Watkins was great!”

“Berry & Berry is a great firm. Kimberly was very knowledgeable, detailed, professional, and kept me in the loop of the process. I would recommend this firm without hesitation.”

“I would definitely recommend Berry& Berry. My case was a success thanks to Kimberly she was great. They made me feel very comfortable.”
