Dell Disability LawyersReviews of diattorney.com

My disability claim was denied. I used another lawyer and still denied. I was at a dead end. With failing health and 2 special need children at home. Not able to sleep at nights, frustrated, depressed. I came across Attorneys Dell and Schaefer, decided to try one last time. Sure enough, my claim was reinstated in few months. They are straight forward, no surprises with fees or agreements.

When I needed attorneys for my disability insurance case I went online and did research on different attorneys. By the time I was done I decided on Dell and Schaefer to represent me. It wound up being a great choice. From the very beginning to the very end of my case I knew I was being represented by a very competent attorney if I had a question and I called the office, somebody always called me back well before the end of the day to answer any questions or concerns I had. I was always kept aware of what was going on by their superb Staff. Danielle Lauria was the paralegal that my attorney Alex assigned to help me. She was awesome. Always keep me aware of what was going on through emails and with the telephone. Always returned my calls or my emails promptly. I must say I wish I had this firm when I started my case in New York State. I would not hesitate to use this firm again and would recommend them to anyone who needs excellent competent attorneys with a great staff that understands the needs of their clients.

Steven Dell was excellent in working with us and helping us through the stressful process of filing a disability claim. The "adjusters" who work for the insurance companies are paid to try to delay or deny benefits even if the claim is legitimate.That is why we hired Dell & Schaefer to communicate with the insurance company and be on our side to support and guide us though the entire stressful process. It would be very unwise to file a claim on your own without the experience, knowledge and skills of Dell & Schaefer . We had a successful outcome from our case and give Dell & Schaefer the highest rating possible.

I have been a client with Dell & Schaefer for the past two years. They have successfully helped me with my appeal for LTD benefits after being denied with Prudential on my own. My attorney, Jay Symonds and paralegal, Vanessa Arriaga, are excellent. They always take the time to answer my questions and walk me through each step of this complicated process. Their client commitment makes them stand out in comparison to other firms. When you are ill and fighting your own health battle, you want them as a member of your fighting team!

I had an excellent experience working with the team at Dell & Schaefer. Ms Rachel Alters & her assistant Sonia Nogueira kept me updated on the status of my appeal on a regular basis & provided same day responses to my email inquiries, often calling to explain certain details that may have been too overwhelming otherwise. They were respectful, professional & extremely patient with me. Rachel was very clear & confident in our conversations & effective in communications with my physicians during the course of documenting my condition. My case involved a 10-year disability income stream that was suddenly & unexpectedly terminated. The financial situation it created & future uncertainty left me very stressed, so having such an experienced professional representing me was a huge comfort. I am very pleased & grateful that Ms Alters won my appeal. I feel as if a huge weight has been lifted! I found Dell & Schaefer online after unsuccessful attempts to find a local attorney that was familiar with ERISA disability plans & qualified to get terminated benefits reinstated. My situation was unique in the fact that I had already been receiving LTD benefits for almost 10 years, but was suddenly being told by the insurance company that my diagnosis no longer qualified for coverage. When I found the Dell & Schaefer site I watched a few videos, read a few articles & KNEW that if anyone had a chance at getting my LTD benefits back, it was them. I called a number on the website & the person who answered "got it" & understood that my sudden termination of benefits deserved a second look. They made some notes, took my name & number. I was amazed to find a missed call & voice mail received from Rachel Alters that day / evening. She tells you what you need to hear, even if it is not necessarily what you want to hear at the time. Rachel is direct, knowledgeable & compassionate. In my cas e, there was very sensitive material in my medical files, however it did not feel awkward for Rachel & her assistant Sonia (Nogueira) to have that information. They did not judge my neurological limitations or exasperated stress level. They took all of my concerns seriously & did not condescend... And most importantly of all, WE WON! Rachel has continued to.provide me with guidance & representation regarding reviews of my condition (in the form of an annual recertification form) that the insurance company has requested post-victory. I am so glad that am not alone. The emotional & financial peace-of-mind that working with this talented legal team continues to provide is absolutely priceless. Thank you Dell & Schaefer. God Bless!

My D&S experience spanned over 7 years and it was in one word “Relief”. A fantastic relief. Why relief? Because dealing with my disability insurance company was nightmarish and D&S instantly relieved me of all the worry. From the very first conversation I had with Greg Dell, on a Sunday I believe, thru his help, he and his most competent team including Alex Palamara, Danielle Lauria, and Anneli De-Cardenas removed the proverbial 800 pound gorilla off my shoulders. Greg and Alex spent an initial, and draining 3 hours listening in while an insurance rep grilled me on an in-home interview. This was after they had filmed me on two separate previous occasions. They even followed me thru Walmart, cameras on!! Yes folks, they will try to catch you doing anything outside the limits of your disability. They don’t want to pay you!! That's the bottom line. My D&S attorneys told me from the start, be honest when you talk to the insurance company people on that interview. I did and from that interview and beyond, D&S handled everything regarding my policy. I was able to sleep at night knowing I had expert representation. Everything from my disability company went through D&S. This was a huge burden, relieved! I "highly" recommend D&S because I know there are legitimately disabled people, like me, who haven’t a clue on how to deal with an insurance company, with expert investigators at their disposal, looking for ways NOT to pay. D&S represent. They know this business. They provide expert counsel. Watch Greg Dell's and associates videos. Those videos are available online on YouTube. D&S attorneys and staff not only act as your disability attorneys and staff, but they also empathize with their clients. They show compassion. They’re accessible. They’re very reasonable in their fees. Trust me, they were worth every penny. I recommend D&S, so that others in the same boat as I was can feel relaxed and know that their entire organization has your back and will go to battle for you when necessary. D&S were wonderful, ALL very approachable, and true friends.

Dell and Schaefer helped me where I could not against my insurance company who failed to pay me. Dell and Schaefer was able to help me get a settlement.

All of the employees at this legal firm were personally involved with me, the client to get the best legal outcome even though ERISA is stacked against disababled patients who buy short term and long term disability from their employers. A special gratitude of thanks goes out to Rachel Alters and team and my heartfelt sincere prayers go out to the sick (medical or physical) victims of insurance financial and mental abuse.
