Put Decades of Experience in Your Corner

At Dabdoub Law Firm, we know how critical it is to receive disability benefits if you are disabled. Unfortunately, disability insurance companies will often delay or deny paying disability benefits to people who need them. If you or a loved one is disabled, you deserve every dollar of these disability benefits, and we can help you fight for them.

For over two decades, Dabdoub Law Firm has helped hundreds of clients successfully receive disability insurance benefits from insurance companies. We have recovered millions of dollars in disability benefits for our clients and have experience against every major disability insurance company. All of our lawyers focus on long-term disability claims and we can help you, too.

Disability insurance companies often implement ambiguous and confusing wording in their insurance contracts, providing them with multiple ways to deny or delay approving your disability benefits. After having spent years effectively fighting for our clients’ rights to disability benefits, we have a comprehensive understanding of disability insurance law and ERISA.

We know exactly what to look for in a disability insurance policy, how to spot weaknesses in an insurance company’s denial, and use these weaknesses to our client’s advantage. Our long term disability insurance attorneys have filed lawsuits and successfully fought against all major disability insurance companies.

What is Disability Insurance?

Disability insurance is a type of insurance policy designed to provide financial protection to individuals in the event that they become unable to work due to a disabling illness, injury, or other medical condition. This insurance is crucial because a disability can significantly impact a person's ability to earn an income, leading to financial hardship and potentially affecting their quality of life.

When a person becomes disabled and is unable to work, disability insurance provides a portion of their pre-disability income as a replacement source of income. The amount paid out is typically a percentage of the individual's salary or wages, and it is specified in the insurance policy.

There are two main types of disability insurance:

  • Short-term disability insurance: This type of coverage provides benefits for a limited duration, usually for a few months to a year. It is designed to cover shorter-term disabilities, such as those resulting from accidents or illnesses that require a temporary recovery period.

  • Long-term disability insurance: Long-term disability insurance provides benefits for an extended period, often until the disabled individual is able to return to work or reaches a predetermined retirement age. It kicks in after the short-term disability coverage ends, and it covers more severe and long-lasting disabilities that prevent the individual from engaging in gainful employment.

Disability insurance policies may vary in terms of coverage, waiting periods (the time between becoming disabled and receiving benefits), benefit duration, and the conditions under which benefits are paid. Some policies might cover only specific disabilities, while others might be more comprehensive, covering a broader range of disabilities.

Many employers offer disability insurance as part of their benefits package, but individuals can also purchase private disability insurance plans to supplement or replace employer-provided coverage. The cost of disability insurance premiums depends on factors such as the individual's occupation, age, health status, and the level of coverage desired.

It's important to carefully review the terms and conditions of a disability insurance policy to understand what disabilities are covered, the waiting period before benefits are paid, the duration of coverage, and any exclusions or limitations that may apply. Having disability insurance can provide peace of mind, knowing that financial support is available if an unforeseen disability prevents you from working.
