OUR STORY

Our Story from 1999 to Today

Attorney Kenneth Hiller opened his own law firm in August 1999 as a solo practitioner after gaining extensive experience in Social Security disability law at a firm.

In 2021, Timothy Hiller and Ida Comerford acquired the practice. In June 2024, they officially rebranded it as Hiller Comerford Injury & Disability Law, a name that reflects both who leads the firm and what it does. June 2026 marks the firm's second anniversary under this new name and a proud milestone in its 27-year history of advocacy.

Though we have grown into a major firm with 48 attorneys and 240 staff members at office locations located in New York, Illinois, and Michigan, we continue to provide personal attention to each client. If you hire us to represent you, you will work directly with an attorney, not just an assistant.

"Putting our names on this firm was both an honor and a responsibility," says Timothy Hiller. "We're carrying forward the standard my father set in 1999, while expanding what we can do for people who've been hurt or denied the benefits they earned."

Why Fighting For Our Clients Is Personal

Ida Comerford, Managing Partner and Social Security Disability attorney, reflects on five years of leadership and what this milestone really means:

"Five years in, what stays with me isn't the new name on the door, but the people behind the cases. The veteran who finally got his benefits restored. The mother who was denied SSD before she found us. That's the work, and that's what this milestone means to me.”
