Highly recommended!

After my initial LTD claim was denied, Geannina (Nina) Burgos and the Dabdoub law firm’s team took control of the communication with the insurance company, and successfully secured my benefits. I highly recommend Nina to anyone seeking reliable and experienced counsel. Thank you for working so hard t...o help me!

The best there is! Hands down!

Dabdoub Law Firm won my long-term disability case, and I couldn’t be more grateful. Geannina Burgos and Audrey were professional, responsive, compassionate and extremely knowledgeable. They truly understand how disability insurance companies operate and how to hold them accountable. They don’t drag t...heir feet and I felt supported, informed, and genuinely cared for during this very difficult time in family’s life. They made a stressful process so much easier and truly fought for me. I highly recommend them to anyone dealing with an LTD claim and wouldn’t choose any other firm!

This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

They listened to my case.

I had been off of work due to a disability for nearly a year. My recovery time was undetermined, due to my medical condition. My employer provided both short-term and long-term disability insurance. It took New York Life nearly a year to reach a final denial decision on my claim. I contacted seve...ral law firms and was repeatedly turned away because I was a minimum wage worker and there wasn't enough money involved. I had a lengthy conversation with an intake representative from Dabdoub Law. Nina actually took the time to listen to the facts in my case, and run the numbers. The firm took my case! They stayed in contact with me by phone and email, to explain the process and request information about my medical records. I had a difficult time with retrieving records and using the computer. They were very patient with assisting me along the way. I was update at each step of the process. They were able to get my LTD appeal approved, and will continue to assist me in retaining my benefits as long as my disability necessitates.
