Dabdoub Law Firm is currently representing a client who was diagnosed with schizophrenia. The symptoms of their schizophrenia predictably caused cognitive impairment and other conditions that interrupted their work as a software engineer.
Our client was benefitting from short-term disability insurance as they attempted to adjust to and treat the mental illness. Without warning, though, Sedgwick, a claims management service, decided to drop the claim in March 2024. The company argued that our client no longer needed medical support for the condition, even though there was no medical evidence or statements from treating physicians that the condition had improved.
At this time, Dabdoub Law Firm is preparing to file an appeal for our client to restore the disability benefits. Our legal team will also seek long-term disability benefits, given that the condition is not expected to improve. At only 30 years old, the struggles with schizophrenia could be the greatest challenge our client has faced yet, and we are proud to stand with them as legal guides during this difficult time.
