What Our Clients Say About Working with Amber
Without the Ortiz Law Firm I would not have been able to manage this very difficult time in my life. I struggled with hip and back pain to the point I had both hips replaced and was unable to live my life, much less work. I was approved for short term disability but was denied long term with very little explanation.
Mr. Ortiz and his team carefully, thoughtfully and professionally examined my claim, filed my appeal and navigated the process that led to an approval of my long term claim. I have used this time to recover, heal and am on the road to recovery. Without the help of Ortiz Law I would have either been forced back to a painful existence or filed bankruptcy.
I highly recommend you do not file for LTD without the assistance of a lawyer and with the utmost confidence I recommend you contact Ortiz Law.
I would especially like to thank Paralegal Amber Yelvington of Ortiz Law for her kind help during my claim. In a time when customer service is lacking Mrs. Yelvington was prompt, thorough, always accurate and compassionate when I had questions or requested follow up.
God Bless the Ortiz Law team.
I highly recommend this law firm! I found them after my long term disability was terminated at two years, with only a little more than a year to go. I’d also been trying to file for SSDI with the company my long term insurer provided. I’d been denied once and was starting an appeal. Nick was honest, kind and thorough. Amber, the person assigned to me was always responsive and kept me informed. We worked together to gather the right information. Only 6% of people get SSDI approved on appeal, and Nick and Amber did it! I was approved for the remaining LTD insurance and SSDI. I wish I’d engaged them sooner. What a relief, and reduction of stress! It is not easy to this. My deepest gratitude to a team who does this, truly because they care.
I HIGHLY recommend Ortiz Law Firm especially for cases involving Short and Long Term Disability claims/appeals. Nick and his staff are very knowledgeable and experienced at dealing with appeals, etc. with private insurance companies. They also have very helpful support documentation describing the process of appeal.
Amber Yelvington is the paralegal who supported my case and she is excellent! She is knowledgeable, professional, welcomes questions, and is very responsive. Her persistence and skill were instrumental in achieving a positive outcome with the insurance company on my LTD claim appeal.
The entire Ortiz Law Firm team demonstrated outstanding performance and communication throughout the process of appealing my LTD claim. THANK YOU Ortiz Law Firm!
Ortiz Law Firm is an absolute dream to work with. From the time I first contacted them to the end of my case and settlement they were always sending me emails or calling and updating me. They are a very efficient, no nonsense organization. I always felt they had my best interests in mind and I was always given information on every stage of my case. Mr. Ortiz is very easy to work with and he called me personally to let me know that my case was resolved to my satisfaction. Amber Yelvington was the paralegal that assisted with my case and she was always so pleasant and understanding when I had questions or concerns. She is very knowledgeable and always responded to my inquiries very quickly, usually the same day! The whole office is great to work with and I definitely would recommend them to anyone dealing with a disability claim. Thanks again!
Nick Ortiz and his team are amazing! Especially Amber Y! She was very communicative through the whole process, answered any questions that I had and provided expert level guidance at every turn. Nick and his team handled both my Social Security Disability and my Long Term Disability cases and I must say they KNOW what they are doing. Because of their experience and expertise they were able to get me the most positive outcome possible. Their knowledge and experience made the difference. Nick was very impressive during the hearing and his year of experience and knowledge were evident. I can’t say enough how impressed I am with this firm, especially Nick and Amber! Thanks!
