Claimants in Atlanta, GA, and the surrounding area frequently contact Ortiz Law Firm for assistance with various Georgia disability insurance and Social Security Disability Insurance matters. Lead by Board Certified Social Security Disability Lawyer, Nick Ortiz, our experienced team is ready to fight for the disability benefits that you deserve.

As our former clients attest in their many positive reviews, our firm is compassionate and sensitive to each client’s unique needs and will fight to recover the disability insurance and Social Security Disability benefits that you deserve. If you need help from an Atlanta Disability Lawyer please contact our office as soon as possible to schedule your free consultation. You may only have a limited time to submit an appeal, so time is of the essence.

Atlanta Disability Lawyer for Long Term Disability, ERISA, and Disability Insurance Claims

We realize that this is a time of unparalleled frustration in your life. 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, and that’s why it is so frustrating to have to fight with a disability insurance company to get the benefits you deserve. Your insurance carrier has nothing to gain from paying claims and will look for any reason to deny or terminate benefits.

Disability insurance companies understand the disability rules and regulations such as ERISA and will use those rules against you. You need an experienced attorney 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. Working with skilled and experienced disability attorney Nick Ortiz can help improve the chances of your claim being approved if you’ve been wrongfully denied benefits.

Do not let our location discourage you from contacting us to see what we can do to help. The Ortiz Law Firm represents long-term disability claimants anywhere in the United States, and in fact, the world. We evaluate each case on a case-by-case basis. Nick Ortiz can either be admitted to your local federal court by what we would call a pro hac vice admission, or he can file a lawsuit here in the state of Florida. Again, what we do is evaluate each case on a case-by-case basis. The insurance companies have billions of dollars of resources behind them, but the Ortiz Law Firm does not fear a single one of them.

We offer a free case evaluation if your long-term disability claim has been wrongfully denied or terminated. We file administrative appeals on behalf of our clients and, if necessary, we will also file a lawsuit against the insurance company. We handle both group disability claims (which are typically governed by ERISA regulations) and individual disability insurance (“IDI” or “DI”) policy claims. We do not typically handle short-term disability cases, but we may be able to help if your short-term disability benefits have been denied and you also have long-term disability coverage that may also be impacted.

Some long-term disability claimants who have been receiving benefits for an extended period of time may receive a lump sum buyout offer from the insurance company. If you have received a lump-sum buyout offer from your disability insurance company we encourage you to contact our office to schedule a free consultation for help evaluating the fairness of the offer. We may also be able to negotiate for a higher settlement amount (though some offers may be non-negotiable.)

Atlanta Georgia Social Security Disability Lawyer

Nick Ortiz is a Board Certified Social Security Disability attorney with years of experience representing claimants at the initial application, reconsideration, and hearing stages of the process. We have expanded our Social Security Disability practice to representing claimants nationwide so that our Social Security Disability lawyers can help a greater number of individuals receive the benefits they deserve.

The SSA has announced that it will begin conducting hearings using the Microsoft Teams platform, so it will be easier than ever to work with an attorney that is not in your local area. You need not settle for a general practitioner simply because they have an office within driving distance. The Atlanta Social Security Disability lawyers at our firm represent claimant’s anywhere in the country.

Even if you do have a long-term disability policy, the insurance company will likely require you to apply for Social Security Disability while you are receiving long-term disability benefits. More often than not, the insurance company will refer you to a specialized organization such as Allsup or The Advocator Group, but the representative working on your claim may not be an experienced Social Security Disability lawyer. Fortunately, you are not required to work with the recommended organization and are free to seek out an experienced Social Security Disability attorney in Atlanta, Georgia, or anywhere else in the United States.

Top Ten Mistakes That Will Destroy Your Long Term Disability Claim

View All Long Term Disability Insurance Resources


Allan N.

After paying a different lawyer thousands of dollars to represent me, the case got nowhere. Nick and his team took my case for the appeals process and it played out exactly as he said it would. As the case was winding down, there were "expenses". I asked how much the expenses were and he told me a REALLY low amount. This was the exact amount due from the settlement. They are very honest and set reasonable expectations. They certainly exceeded my expectations. Ortiz Law Firm is the real deal for long-term disability cases.
