Dabdoub Law Firm recently secured total disability benefits for a dentist in Los Angeles who was unable to complete even part-time, light-duty tasks due to debilitating hand pain. Attorney Edward Dabdoub personally worked on this case and communicated with Protective Life Insurance Company on behalf of our client. Without the need for difficult settlement negotiations or litigation, the insurance company agreed to continue paying her disability benefits.
Details of the Dentist’s Arthritis Case
A dentist who loved her practice began to suffer from serious hand pain that would often flare. The symptoms were expected of someone with arthritis.
Recognizing the seriousness of her condition and how it would make it unsafe for her to complete many dental procedures, such as tooth extractions, she decided to try to keep working part-time and only with light-duty work, such as basic examinations. Unfortunately, after just three short sessions of work in a row, her symptoms worsened to the point of swelling, soreness, and aches. The setback made it clear that she could not continue to work at all unless she risked her health and perhaps that of a patient.
She came to Dabdoub Law Firm for help filing for total disability insurance through Protective Life Insurance Company. Attorney Edward Dabdoub took charge of this case himself. Thanks to his vast experience with such cases, he knew that the insurance company would likely try to argue that part-time and light-duty work should be possible, even when medical evidence said otherwise. Using his reputation as one of the nation’s leading disability claim attorneys and his talent of shining a light on the most important, irritable issues in each case, he convinced the insurer to continue paying the total disability claim owed to the dentist. The positive result was attained before any stressful negotiation or courtroom litigation sessions became necessary.
