Battling with Long Covid symptoms and need ERISA Attorney, I highly recommend Kevin at Dabdoub Law Firm.

For past 5+years my Long COVID diagnosis forced me into long-term disability(LTD), my work insurance company wrongfully denied my claim. I felt overwhelmed and hopeless. Where I am drowning in Long COVID symptoms and more than half of the world including my own family(who don’t live with me and do... not not understand my everyday’s struggles with Long Covid) denied the existence of Long Covid and its symptoms, Kevin’s extensive knowledge about Long COVID really surprised me. He understood the complexities of my condition and how to present it effectively to the work insurance company. Kevin provided both expertise and compassion. He is not only an excellent ERISA attorney who knows the appeals process well, but he also has successful experience with Long COVID cases. He guided me through every step, explained everything in clear terms, and fought tirelessly for me. Because of his skill and dedication, he won my appeal and secured the benefits I needed and deserved. One thing I really like about Kevin is his honesty and he is upfront about everything. Which makes things whole a lot easier to understand. If you are facing a denial of disability benefits from your work insurance company, especially for a complex condition like Long COVID, do not hesitate. Kevin is the attorney you need. I wish there were more than 5 star ratings available, because Kevin and Dabdoub Law Firm(team) deserve more than 5star.

Knowledge and Confident

On my very first call to Dabdoub Law Firm I was immediately connected to Kevin Schaffer. He asked have you been denied, what did they send, what did they say, did they ask you to do this, all within the first few minutes of the call, regardless if I engaged his services he was already helping me. We ...then discussed the process of my employer’s disability insurance company, of which he was also very familiar and explained that multiple things were going on there as they were completing an acquisition. As a previous business leader this all made complete sense and I needed someone who knew all of this and their processes which immediately put me at ease. Finally he actually knew about the chronic disease I am diagnosed with, has had other clients with the same and knew what would need to be done to put together the proper rebuttal. Eight months later I have now been approved. I always had the confidence he knew what was going on and would manage anything that came up. Kevin is extremely knowledgeable and successful in his field as shown by all his success.

A+ attorney all around

I so highly recommend Kevin Schaefer!! After being denied by Cigna insurance company for my long term disability benefits that were so rightfully mine... i sought out representation to help with my appeal. It seemed every firm I contacted just referred me to another. Kevin, with Dabdoub happened to ...be the one who finally agreed to take my case and it truly could not have been a better experience from that day forward. I have been especially impressed with how prompt the communication was throughout. Kevin explained things that could have been quite complex to me in such a way that I could fully comprehend and understand. With every phone call or email, Kevin has given me the impression he is a genuine, kind professional. I am happy to report even after an additional denial, he fought for me again and WON! Cigna is paying me back all that is owed to me, as well as future monthly payments. This is such a huge victory since Cigna is so notorious for not paying claims. Praise God. God bless you and Dabdoub Law Firm. Thank you so much.

Best ERISA Lawyer Ever!

I was referred to and hired the Dabdoub Law Firm to handle an ERISA matter regarding UnitedHealthCare's refusal to pay the doctor and surgery center for Kyphoplasty surgery, even when my doctor contacted them personally to have the procedure approved and they refused. Mr. Schaefer was extremely nice..., always took my phone calls and answered emails right away. He had to file an appeal and the insurance company finally paid both bills. Winning this appeal saved me thousands of dollars. I work in a law office doing personal injury law. I will refer anyone and everyone to this firm with any insurance problems in the future. I have also advised my doctor to refer people to them where there is a problem with insurance approvals for medical procedures. Mr. Schaefer is knowledgeable and very professional.
