Dabdoub Law Firm has been my LTD claim attorney for 3 years, and has successfully represented me in 2 claim denial reversals. Most recently, Prudential Insurance denied my claim stating that the reasons for my inability to become gainfully employed had not been substantiated. This was despite their having paid my claim for 4+years, due to irreversible and declining health concerns.
Attorney Edward Dabdoub personally and immediately drafted a letter requesting that Prudential reverse this recent claim denial, or litigation was eminent. Additionally, he was candid and prepared me for litigation, as my HMO physicians were not being fully supportive in referring me for updated diagnostic tests; and updating Prudential's required paperwork.
We were so surprised and excited when Prudential reviewed their records and reversed their claim denial!
If you expect representation that includes prompt responses to inquiries, being kept abreast of all aspects of your claim/case, consistent personable yet professional interactions with everyone in the office, and a sounding board when required, Dabdoub Law Firm should be your first choice for a LTD attorney.
This review was from 2017. I failed to press the "post" button: I chose Dabdoub through a Google search, and had reached out to a few other offices as well. After speaking with a kind gentleman that asked me a few questions, Attorney Carter Sox called me, and we had the warmest conversation ever. I was ecstatic when advised that Dabdoub Law Firm and Carter, would represent me.
Working with Carter, Sonya Myers, and Maria Calvo made my Long Term Disability claim denial appeal proceed fast and effectively. They always returned my calls (even one that I didn't even remember making. I was so stressed), and emails, and kept me abreast of events relative to my appeal.
Please do not hesitate to give Dabdoub Law Firm a try. You won't be disappointed.

I received the disturbing call in April of 2017, when I was told that my long term disability benefits were abruptly cut off in an annual review. That phone call changed the course of my life at that moment, as failing health and very limited income from SSD left me in a place where I would lose 60 % of my monthly income. I had heard the horror stories of being ejected from benefits I worked for and was entitled for as long as I remained "disabled", that was according to the definition set by my carrier. My panic to find representation led me to Dabdoub Law Firm.
I was recommended several other large firms, but after conversing with these various "specialty" firms, I was made to feel even more panicked and at a loss , as each assured me that this was their specialty, but it was not an easy process. After contacting Dabdoub, I found a group of legal representatives who saw further into the hardship I was now facing and offered options that would eventually suit my difficult situation. They reached out not only as a law firm, but I received several calls from my appointed attorney Kevin Schaefer, who was determined to help find a way to approach the pending appeal and how much the costs would be and resolution fees tailored to me. For the year forward, through the complex process, I knew I could just continue to work on my life and rebuilding, knowing I had a firm that was looking out for my interests despite me not knowing how to handle any of the process or the outcomes. Kevin consulted constantly with his superiors to find ways of continuing to not let go, even when I was so concerned that the insurance carrier would overshadow any appeal I could possibly put together. In the end, Dabdoub carried the ball across the finish line as I just sat back and put my trust in their abilities. Not from any prior experience, but how gently and carefully my well being was being considered throughout. They succeeded in securing a settlement, one I truly didn't believe would happen, going up against such a large and overpowering insurance company who had no regard for my life and well being. I can't tell you how important it is to put your trust in and hire a firm that handles your case with compassion, taking into account that you were on disability for a reason. ..That your health is compromised and you need advocates that will say, " just rest, we will take care of it". Those words were worth millions, anything acquired in the appeal was gravy above the value of hearing that when your life is in disarray. Thank you Dabdoub for all you did for me and on behalf of me. I hope others see the value in those words as well.
Gratefully,
Sophia

Dabdoub Law Firm was refer to me by Joseph McDonald at McDonald & McDonald Law firm located in Daytona Ohio. I couldn’t be more satisfy and happy I contacted Dabdoub law firm. After contacting 12 law firms before contacting Dabdoub law firm. I was giving up hope. My case for long term disability was a quick case that just needed to be reinstated. Lawyers I contacted where giving me this whole big long stories on how they will go about my case. Really, they made it seem worse than it was and I knew they were just going to prolong my case and on top of everything they would ask for 33.3 % of any present and future payment for 5 or 7 years. That I taught it was crazy! Run away from any law that request that.
After speaking with Eddie at Dabdoub law firm and explaining my situation. He is very straight forward, honest individual and knew where I was coming from and we decided to be a team. He will charge me a certain percent, no future payment and I will get him all the information needed and there firm will submit to Guardian. In just 5 months my case was reinstated.
My disease is becoming more common these days and not many law firms has heard about it. So, if you have Hidradenitis or any other LTD situation trust me you won’t regret it you are contacting the best Law Firm.

World class team that over-delivers for its clients!!!
When I spoke with Kevin Schaefer, for the very first time, I knew he was the lawyer and Dabdoub Law firm was the first and last firm I needed to work with on my private insurance disability denial case. The extremely kind and warm-hearted nature towards me was top-notch and combine this with the laser-like tactical approach to case management made for an amazing client experience. I always felt very comfortable with the entire team that I interfaced with I knew I was in great hands.
These folks are heroes and warriors at the same time and I'm very grateful to them for getting my denial over-turned!!
Mazal Tov!!

Hello this review regarding the professional and timely handling of my Disability Case is being done it a effort to assist anyone who has a legitimate disability claim and would like the absolute best chance of it being settled favorably . My assessment of the professional job that was needed to win my case and the services received that resulted in winning a settlement that was 100 % larger than the insurance company has originally offered , was accomplished by Nina and Eddie at the firm . I am the first one to admit that I AM WITHOUT A DOUBT THE MOST DIFFICULT CLIENT THEY HAVE HAD OR WILL EVER HAVE . I can make this statement due to the fact that I have spent over 30 years in the insurance / financial services industry , as matter of fact one of my specialties was the marketing and selling of both individual and group disability products . I am sure both Eddie and Nina would agree that this made there job of representing me and negotiating my settlement very challenging , as my extensive knowledge of the industry and in particular disability income products was often times a hindrance . I also need to state that I had a previous law firm that was handling my case for over 2 years before FINALLING finding Dabdoub and specifically Nina . My previous lawyer was a friend and a very good real estate / general law professional , however he lacked the integral and detailed knowledge necessary to navigate the SHARK INFESTED WATERS known as THE CLAIMS DEPT OF A MAJOR INS COMPANY . This lack of experience and knowledge cost me time and money WITHOUT ONE SINGLE PENNY IN BENEFITS BEING PAID . I was so frustrated I even considered filing the lawsuit in the courts and represent myself as I had the knowledge , however what's the saying " a person represent himself in court , has a fool for a client " . In the final analysis I searched the internet and spoke to over 50 different law firms all over the US ( from California to NY to Fl and all points in between before being BLESSED to find Dabdoub . I will admit I was highly reluctant / skeptical to retain / hire a firm that was 1,000 miles away and I could not sit down and meet with face to face . Let me try to close by saying after speaking to over 50 firms across the county that NOT ONE OF THEM UNDERSTOOD THE DISABILITY INCOME PRODUCT AND PROCESS AS WELL AS I THE CLIENT / CLAIMANT . This mere fact troubled me until I spoke to Nina and Eddie regarding the type policy I had and the unique features , that ONLY A EXPERINCED AND SEASONED PRO WOULD KNOW AND UNDERSTAND HOW TO NEGOIATE SUCESSFULL . Nina and Eddie are without a doubt the most knowledgeable lawyer I have ever dealt with in my 30 + years in the financial services industry in the area of disability claims and negotiations . In closing I have NEVER in my 35 years in business taken the time to give a review , take a survey or give my thoughts regarding my interactions with a business , however I had to make sure for those out there LOOKING FOR THE BEST IN THE DISABILITY CLAIMS INDUSTRY , could find what took me OVER 2 YEARS AND 10 s of thousands of $ , WITHOUT ONE PENNY IN RESULTS , that is Dabdoub Law Firm , the Undisputed Best in the business , THANKS NINA AND EDDIE , I'm 100% positive had I not found your firm I would not have reached the absolute best outcome for me and my family / CLAIM SETTLED . THANKS
