LTDBL claim

I was represented by the Daboub Law Firm, specifically Geannina Burgos, J.D., M.B.A. (Nina), Disability Insurance & ERISA Attorney. My case involved depression and anxiety, rather than a physical disability. I initially tried to apply for LTDBL benefits on my own, was rejected, appealed and rejecte...d again. I then found the Daboub Law Firm and, after much negotiation including the filing a lawsuit, they were able to obtain a settlement that was satisfactory to me. Nina was very kind, upfront and detail-oriented. My only regret was that I did not have her representing me at the start. Thank you Nina and Daboub Law Firm for your fine work!!

Nina obtained money we could not have gotten on our own

Geannina A. Burgos, with the help of her team, worked hard to obtain a fair settlement for me. Nina had a good understanding of what the possibilities and risk’s were and worked hard to overcome any known risks. Nina is very good at navigating a very complex and daunting process. Nina and her team w...ere on top of things and very responsive and timely in getting things done that needed to happen on time. She reached out to us, rather than us having to chase her down, to get statuses and information about where we were in the process and how it was going. She also made herself available when I asked to speak to her. Nina took the time to answer any questions and concerns my wife and I had and she explained the possible expected results. Dabdoub Law Firm had a great support team during a challenging time of life.

Gets Results!

Listen! If there is one disability attorney I would recommend it will definitely be Geannina Andrea Burgos. I was referred to her to help with my LTD disability that was abruptly closed. After months of me fighting an appealing their decision I knew I needed help. I am so grateful that Geannina Andre...a Burgos was able to help me get my benefits back in less than 2 months. This is the best Christmas present ever. I was so stressed with fighting the LTD company and my loss of income. Geannina Andrea Burgos ensured me that she would get an answer and get my benefits back either in court or without court. Luckily we did not need to go to court. If j could give 10 stars I would. If you want an attorney that is compassionate, understanding and efficient that gets results look no further.

Thank you so very much… You Rock!!

Thank you, thank you Nina & Sonya! When I first contacted you I was scared and felt hopeless, due to the actions of my LTD insurance company. You put my mind at ease from the onset, and always took the time for my many *many* questions. Your knowledge and keeping me updated is so appreciated & finall...y we won!!

LTD claim approved quickly

Geannina and her team were fantastic! They were able to settle my claim quickly, after I had been unsuccessfully fighting the insurance company for months. They went to work on the case immediately, answer all my questions and made me feel like I had professional help in my corner.
