Process Steps

WE HAVE SUCCESSFULLY HANDLED

Matters Against Some Of The Largest Insurance Companies. A Sample Is Below.

How We Have Helped Others Just Like You

Smith v. Hartford

Our client suffered a stroke not long after giving birth, causing her to become disabled and unable to return to work. Our team prevailed on behalf of Ms. Smith and obtained the benefits she was rightfully due.

Smith v. Hartford

Reliance tried to portray our client as lying about his disability. As a dentist, our client needed to use precise dental tools on an average day, but his chronic pain prevented him from being able to use them. We countered the Reliance argument, challenged the medical opinions, and won.

Jones v Liberty

Our client suffered from degenerative disc disease, a serious medical condition that causes her to suffer chronic pain. Liberty terminated her benefits. The case eventually went to federal court, where the Chief Judge ruled in our client’s favor.

Doe v Allstate

Our client suffered a variety of injuries that caused migraines, chronic pain, and major health complications. Allstate required multiple medical evaluations and denied the benefits. Our firm was able to recover full disability benefits.

Why Partner With Us to Win
Your Disability Claim

Nobody Beats Us at
Getting Disability Denials
Overturned

We beat other firms at getting denials overturned because we execute a strategy to achieve that result, not just create a record good enough to get you a settlement in court. Because we are the greatest threat in disability litigation, insurance companies know they won’t fare well by denying your claim.

Nobody Beats Us in
Disability Litigation

Because of how we prepare your case before litigation, our cases end up there less frequently. That allows us to focus our attention on a winning strategy. We don’t have 100 appellate decisions because we didn’t lose our clients’ cases at the trial court 100 times. We assess cases and predict outcomes better than anybody, equipping you with the right tools to decide whether to settle or go for a judgment.

Our Core Values

Our Core Values set us apart from other firms, and are the reason we perform at a higher level.
