Verified ClientHired Attorney 2020-2021Never thought I would need an attorney, but when I did Seth was the only person I even thought about going to. Very kind and listened to my concerns. Julie Howard was always kind and helpful. Seth certainly knows his stuff! Got a positive outcome and would recommend him highly!

Verified ClientHired Attorney 2019-2020Mr. Seth Holliday is a highly professional attorney. He did a wonderful job representing me in a difficult ERISA case against a large private disability company. Seth possesses vast knowledge of the private disability sector and utilized a variety of skills and methods when composing the required legal documents. Additionally, I appreciated all of the time Seth spent ensuring I was completely prepared and informed throughout the entire court and negotiation proceedings. Seth accurately, compassionately, and concisely articulated the many aspects of my case, and I am pleased with the outcome. Ms. Julie Howard, Seth’s paralegal, was also very helpful during the legal process. She regularly communicated with me and provided updates on the status of my case. I believe that Seth truly acts in the best interests of his clients while fighting for the justice they deserve. I express my profound gratitude to Seth and his legal team at the McMahan Law Firm!
