The only lawyer you need for your long-term disability claim

Matthew Maddox is an exceptional long-term disability attorney. From day one, he and Arianna developed a thoughtful strategy for my claim and stayed on top of every deadline, medical record, and insurance request. Long-term disability cases can be overwhelming, but they made the process manageable... and always gave me confidence that my case was in good hands. Their experience with disability insurance was evident throughout the representation. I’m incredibly grateful for everything they did and would confidently recommend them to anyone navigating a long-term disability claim.

He is intelligent, and tenacious

I am an attorney who has practice law for over thirty years. I am relatively young, and so I thought, too young to be diagnosed with dementia. For approximately thirty years I have paid disability premiums to John Hancock, with Unum serving as its administrator, to protect my family should I ever... become disabled. Well I did, and when I filed a long term disability claim, I was surprisingly denied even though I was unable to perform the usual, customary, and necessary duties of my job description. I searched for a disability attorney, finding Mr. Matthew Maddox who provided a completely free consultation, clealry explaining the entire appeals process, in a manner, that as an attoreny or not, was informational and easy to undertstand. His assistant, Samantha Merritt, was extremely helpful, as she continually followed up with me to make sure I was doing well, and providing the information they required for my appeal to be processed. Mind you, this was a significant amount of money, a six-figure recovery which my family desperately needed as a result of my illness. I would 100% recommend that you consult with Mr. Maddox for any long term disability claims that you may have.

Grateful Client

Matthew and Arianna are wonderful to have on your side. I’m an attorney who had a disability claim against a private insurance company. I hired Matthew because he was throughly qualified, very knowledgeable in the area, and had a warm demeanor that left me feeling as though he truly cared about my c...ase. He also can highly recommended from other attorneys. I entrusted my case to Matthew, which he handled successfully. I am incredibly grateful to Matthew for his guidance.

The journey to attain STD and LTD benefits through Guardian was laden with complexities, and the need for timely assistance was paramount. To my delight, I found myself speaking with both Matthew and Arianna on the same day I reached out. Their immediate responsiveness and willingness to dive headfirst into our case were nothing short of remarkable. What sets The Maddox Firm apart is not just their rapid response, but the profound depth of their knowledge in disability law. Matthew Maddox and Arianna Gonzalez are true experts in navigating the intricacies of disability benefits.

Their astute understanding of the nuances involved in dealing with my Guardian, my STD/LTD insurance carrier, made all the difference. Moreover, the approach they adopt is nothing short of extraordinary.

Amazing LTD Firm

Matthew Maddox and Arianna Gonzalez of the Maddox Law Firm have represented me and worked so hard on my behalf to get me the claims that were rightfully mine. I never really understood what the process of putting in an LTD claim entailed but let me be straight up and honest as it is not an easy one.... I paid my premiums on time on policies to two major insurance companies who gladly accepted and even annually offered increased coverage. However, once I put a claim in, I got a completely different treatment as they did not want to pay my claims for various and sometimes ridiculous reasons. The LTD policy that I had through my employer was turned down outright and my personal own-occupation LTD policy was being delayed. Insurance companies try and break you and just want you to give up. However, Mathew and Arianna have been there to support, guide and fight for my family and I throughout the process. We were able to win my appeal on my employer LTD policy and with that, my personal LTD policy holder had no grounds to not grant my claim as it is an own-occupation policy. My family owes so much to Matthew and Arianna, and I highly recommend that you team with them on your LTD claim.
