Kevin P. Schaefer

Due to a traumatic medical condition, I was forced into a severe position…unable to work I invoked my right to apply for long-term disability from the company I worked for and had continuously paid into long-term for about 12yrs. Upon multiple denials, I contacted the Dabdoub Law firm, fortunately fo...r me Kevin Schaefer immediately took the time to listen and analyze the legal situation. Mr. Schaefer was honest from the first conversation, stating the probabilities of the outcome, nonetheless he was willing to take my case. Despite the duration of the case…over a year, Schaefer worked tireless hours to the best of his abilities, keeping me informed every step of the way. Mr. Schaefer went above and beyond battling on my behalf to make sure I was treated fairly and receive the compensation that was due to my family and our survival. Due to his dedication, respect, honesty and encouragement, my admiration for attorneys was restored. I recommend Kevin Schaefer without any doubts, because he will work diligently and be honest from the beginning to the end.

It was a blessing to have found attorney Kevin Shaefer from this firm .After two years of struggling with my Disability Insurance company a friend of mine strongly suggested that I seek an attorney. Dabdoud Law firm came up in my searches in several places and decided to seek their help. I was direct...ed to Kevin when I called. He was so professional and caring. The matter in which this firm treated me and was on the ball with the case was impressing. In Less than two months , Kevin call me and says , Sandra you are in for a wonderful Christmas Gift.. your disability has been approved! You will be receiving a check for back pay from Jan 2017 and then monthly from there on! Thank you Kevin and Dabdoud law firm! You are a true blessing . May God Bless you all !

When my disability claim was denied for vague, inactionable reasons and the inscrutability of my disability insurance company's appeals process finally drove me crazy, I did a google search for disability lawyers and by a stroke of luck connected to Kevin Schaefer. In talking to Kevin on the phone I ...realized how much sunk into questioning myself and my illness due to the awful treatment I received from the claims manager and her colleagues. Kevin gave me actionable strategies and advice and even more importantly simply made me realize I didn't have to question myself or try to sound more convincing or try to come across as more believable--that I had a right to receive this benefit because I was in fact sick and unable to work. His advice worked and my denial was overturned. He was generous with is time and knowledge and really made a huge difference in my life. I wish I'd known that this kind of support was available when trying to deal with less than honest insurance people at a time when your life is so stressful to begin with. I highly recommend working with Kevin.

I would not do justice if I simple clicked on the rating stars, without a true and humble thank you for attorney Kevin Schaefer. And by all definition is true as expressed by Mahatma Gandhi, that "In a gentle way, you can shake the world." Kevin was my appointed attorney, but also showed me a side ...of law that over shadowed any preconceived notions that aggressiveness showing as loud, overconfident and hard lined approaches indicated that the "shark" labeled legal representatives of today win the cases. There was nothing weak or with lack of confidence, in Kevin Schaefer. Just that I found a young man who had a side of humanity that was not willing to give up, even if I told him to. He saw the weight of the case wearing on me and my desire to release the pressure brought me to wanting to pull away and he just took over by letting me know that all I had to worry about was myself and my well being. Being disabled after a life long career is terrifying. Losing your well deserved benefits is even more. The only thing that would top that would be an attorney that you are intimidated by. From the onset, he was kind and gentle. Just what is needed to deal with clients who are disabled for health reasons and the last thing needed is to have additional stress. I found I was able to just let go and let him just use his knowledge and expertise, I knew from the beginning that he would do all he could. No matter the outcome. It is rare to find such humanity in the legal world. His soft spoken manner was not equal to his strength as an attorney in this very difficult field of appeals. Despite not believing I would win any appeal, Kevin never gave up on trying until he got something for me. If he didn't recover, he certainly wasn't going to walk away from the table without giving all he had in his knowledge and grit....mostly his strength as an attorney, clearly doing a job he has a passion for. Thank you Kevin for all your kindness, your constant advocacy for my case and concern to help me recover enough to help with my health care and to take some pressure off so that as he said, " can concentrate on yourself"...You not only get a strong litigator and advocate, but you have a man who walks softly and has a passion for humanity. I believe in praise when due. I could use the entire 3000 plus words to describe this young man. As he is a rare gem in an occupation where strength is thought to be loud and aggressive. Thank you again Kevin for not just winning the appeal but for being a kind human being!
