About
- I love working with brilliant people who work hard
- All of my clients worked hard to build amazing careers that were cut short
- I'm lucky to spend my days (and sometimes nights) protecting folks going through some of the largest changes they have faced
- I know that if they do it the right way, they'll get through it
- Recent Successes Here are just a few examples of recent successes on behalf of clients that have gotten me really excited: • My client, a trader, suffered from multiple hearing-related issues
- The long term disability insurer did not understand that the client’s workplace – a trading floor – was loud and raucous
- Through the insurer’s appeal process, I reversed the insurer’s termination of benefits. • My client, a physician, had severe pain issues that led him to decrease his productivity
- The long term disability insurance company approved his claim, but it miscalculated his benefits
- I sued the company in federal court
- Due to our efforts, the insurance company paid him back benefits and increased his benefits going forward. • My client, a partner at a major law firm, suffered from vision issues
- I guided him as he left his job
