Orlando Disability Insurance Claims

Most people living in Orlando who have disability coverage are provided that coverage through their employment. Due to its central location in Florida, Orlando has become a hot spot for vacationers and tourists all around the world. In response to its year-round appeal, employers and commercial industries of all sorts have also taken root there.

According to recent employment research from the Florida Department of Labor and Employment, some of the largest employers in Orlando are Walt Disney World, Orange County public schools, offices belonging to the state government, and Adventist Health System. As with most any employers of these natures, long-term and short-term disability coverage are provided to most employees due to federal rules established in ERISA law.

If you are privately employed in Orlando, perhaps as a small business owner or medical provider, then you may have disability coverage through privately or individually purchased insurance policies. Such policies are made available through major insurance companies, like MetLife, UNUM, and Prudential. People who are covered through private insurance plans need to foot the bill themselves, but generally gain noticeable, additional coverage benefits as a result.

Whether you are self-employed or working for one of the large-scale employers in Orlando, your disability insurance claims are likely to be filed in a federal court. In particular, you are likely to file your claim at the George C. Young Federal Annex Courthouse on West Central Boulevard, which belongs to the Middle District of Florida.

As a law firm dedicated to assisting and representing the good people of Orlando who need to file a disability insurance claim, there is nothing about your claim that can surprise us. Throughout our years of legal experience, we have interacted with every major insurance company in Florida and the rest of the country. We know what tactics they use to try to deny or delay claims—and we know how to counter them. To date, our attorneys have recovered millions of dollars in benefits for disability insurance claimants in Orlando, throughout Florida, and nationwide.

Put a Proven Legal Team on Your Side

Navigating disability insurance law is complex and takes considerable skill and know-how. It is important that you not only find an attorney to guide you through this process but also that you find the right attorney, one who knows the ins and outs of the disability insurance system.

Here are some of the key advantages:

Expertise in Disability Law: Our firm specializes in disability law, which is a complex and ever-changing field. We have in-depth knowledge of federal and state disability laws, regulations, and the Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) application and appeals processes. This expertise ensures they can navigate the system effectively on your behalf.
Maximizing Benefits: Our disability lawyers are experienced in assessing the strength of your disability claim. They can help you gather and present the necessary medical evidence and documentation to maximize your chances of approval for benefits. Their experience allows them to identify potential issues and address them proactively.
Representation at Hearings and Appeals: If your disability claim is denied, we can represent you at hearings and appeals. Our team understands the administrative and legal procedures involved and can present your case persuasively before an administrative law judge or appeals board.
Reducing Stress: Dealing with disability claims can be emotionally and mentally taxing. Having a lawyer handle the paperwork, communication with the Social Security Administration (SSA), and other administrative tasks can significantly reduce your stress and allow you to focus on your health and well-being.
Improved Communication: We act as intermediaries between you and the SSA. We can effectively communicate with SSA officials, medical professionals, and other relevant parties on your behalf. This ensures that your claim is processed efficiently and that any questions or concerns are addressed promptly.
Contingency Fee Arrangement: Many disability lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, which means they only get paid if you win your case. This fee structure can be beneficial for individuals who may be financially strained due to their disability, as it eliminates the need for upfront legal fees.
Faster Resolution: Our Orlando disability lawyers understand the importance of a timely resolution for your case. They can help expedite the process and reduce unnecessary delays, ensuring that you receive your entitled benefits as soon as possible.
Knowledge of Appeals Process: If your initial claim is denied, the appeals process can be daunting. We are well-versed in the appeals process, including filing appeals within deadlines, gathering additional evidence, and presenting your case effectively.
Increased Approval Rates: Statistics show that individuals who are represented by disability lawyers have a higher chance of having their claims approved compared to those who go through the process alone. We know how to build strong cases that meet the SSA's criteria.
Personalized Legal Advice: Our team can provide you with personalized legal advice tailored to your unique situation. We can assess your disability, medical records, and work history to determine the most appropriate legal strategy for your case.

At Dabdoub Law Firm, we devote 100% of our practice to disability insurance law. Our attorneys have decades of experiencing filing initial claims, appealing denied claims, reversing early termination of benefits, and negotiating favorable lump-sum payments from insurance providers on behalf of our clients. We understand the challenges you are facing, and we know how to go up against all major insurance companies to recover the benefits you rightfully deserve. We are not afraid to take your case to trial and have a longstanding history of winning lawsuits in federal court.

Most disability insurance claims fall under federal ERISA regulations. As such, you do not need an attorney who is physically located in Florida.
