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. We were able to protect the long term disability benefits that he and his firm had paid for with their insurance premiums.
