NATIONAL DISABILITY ATTORNEYS
Ortiz Law Firm is dedicated to helping people recover the disability benefits they deserve. We handle group Long Term Disability (LTD) claims, individual policy disability claims, ERISA disability claims, and Social Security Disability claims. Led by Board Certified Disability attorney, Nick Ortiz, our team is ready to fight for you.
Disability insurance companies and the SSA understand the disability rules and regulations such as ERISA and will use those rules against you. You likely have enough worries with respect to your medical treatment, medical bills, and other complications caused by your loss of income and deteriorating health. That’s why it is so frustrating to have to fight with a disability insurance company or the Social Security Administration (SSA) to get the benefits you deserve.
You need an experienced team of attorneys and professional staff who understand the rules and know how to use those same rules to fight back and protect the rights of people filing disability claims. The national disability attorneys at Ortiz Law Firm can help improve the chances of your claim being approved if you’ve been wrongfully denied benefits.
For Long Term Disability claims, we help file administrative appeals and lawsuits against LTD insurance companies, and Nick Ortiz offers free consultations to claimants whose benefits have been denied or terminated. For Social Security Disability claims we help with the initial application and, if necessary, we will appeal a denial and represent you at a hearing before an Administrative Law Judge.

Disability Insurance Companies We Fight
The Ortiz Law Firm has recovered millions of dollars in wrongfully denied insurance benefits. We have litigated claims against all the major insurance companies, including Cigna, Unum, Lincoln, Prudential, Liberty Life, MetLife, The Hartford, Aetna, and more.
Despite the fact the insurance companies have billions of dollars of resources behind them, The Ortiz Law Firm does not fear a single one of them. Some insurance companies hire outside claims administrators to review and decide claims. We also handle claims against “first-party” plan administrators and against “third-party” claims administrators. Such administrators are indicated with an asterisk below, i.e. Aon Hewitt*.
