Does Lupus Require You to File a Disability Insurance Claim with Lawyer Help?

Do you work in my state?

Yes. We are a national disability insurance law firm that is available to represent you regardless of where you live in the United States. We have partner lawyers in every state and we have filed lawsuits in most federal courts nationwide. Our disability lawyers represent disability claimants at all stages of a claim for disability insurance benefits. There is nothing that our lawyers have not seen in the disability insurance world.

What are your fees?

Since we represent disability insurance claimants at different stages of a disability insurance claim we offer a variety of different fee options. We understand that claimants living on disability insurance benefits have a limited source of income; therefore we always try to work with the claimant to make our attorney fees as affordable as possible.

The three available fee options are a contingency fee agreement (no attorney fee or cost unless we make a recovery), hourly fee or fixed flat rate.

In every case we provide each client with a written fee agreement detailing the terms and conditions. We always offer a free initial phone consultation and we appreciate the opportunity to work with you in obtaining payment of your disability insurance benefits.

Do I have to come to your office to work with your law firm?

No. For purposes of efficiency and to reduce expenses for our clients we have found that 99% of our clients prefer to communicate via telephone, e-mail, fax, GoToMeeting.com sessions, or Skype. If you prefer an initial in-person meeting please let us know. A disability company will never require you to come to their office and similarly we are set up so that we handle your entire claim without the need for you to come to our office.

How can I contact you?

When you call us during normal business hours you will immediately speak with a disability attorney. We can be reached at 800-682-8331 or by email. Lawyer and staff must return all client calls same day. Client emails are usually replied to within the same business day and seem to be the preferred and most efficient method of communication for most clients.

I am a 61 year old Senior Business Analyst. I had been working at a health insurance company for approximately 11 years when I became disabled and have had numerous, bulging disks, nerves that were severely impinged, and active arthritis and degenerative disk disease throughout my spine. I underwent back surgery for L1 thru L5 infusion which included insertion of 2 titanium rods and 6 pins. I continue to undergo physical therapy 3 xs per week. Not to mention the surgery left me worse than before the surgery considered a FAILED BACK SURGERY. I’m unable to sit or stand for more than 2 hours with getting up. I am unable to walk for more than 1 city block. I also have many other medical conditions. After collecting LTD from Lincoln Financial for about 3 years, the harassment began. They decided that I was no longer disabled. In short they felt I was capable of returning back to the work force. (Social Security Disability deemed me permanently disabled)

After fighting with Lincoln and exhausting my appeals I decided to research and hire an attorney. I selected Dell & Schaefer based on their website, case success statistics, and the speed at which they returned my calls and emails.

Let me tell you, my experience in working with Rachel Alters and her assistant Michal Mizrahi is nothing short of outstanding. They responded quickly to phone calls and emails and were mindful of my concerns and information needs. Talking with the both of them made me feel confident and assured they were doing the best for me. I cannot say enough good things about Michal. She anticipated my needs and was proactive in keeping me informed as my case progressed. What a TEAM they make. Any time I reached out with questions or concerns they were very responsive and always left me feeling satisfied that I had the best in my corner. Rachel is an angel. She is so down to earth compassionate, professional and trustworthy attorney. Rachel was there to guide me from the start and helped me get through this stressful and lengthy process.

While attempting to handle it on my own, my long-term-disability claim had been denied two previous times. With the help of Rachel Alters and her team, I was able to obtain a settlement I never would have been able to get without their assistance. Rachel and her team far exceeded my expectations in every capacity. She was focused, clear, responsive, efficient and above all exceedingly knowledgeable.
