According to the U.S. Census Bureau, 10% of Jacksonville residents under the age of 65 are living with a disability. That’s one in ten citizens who can’t work because of an illness or injury. If you’re one of these Jacksonville residents, you’re not alone in your struggles.
If you are unable to work due to a disability, you may be eligible for benefits from the Social Security Administration or through a long-term disability insurance policy. The Ortiz Law Firm is here to help claimants in Jacksonville, Florida, and its neighboring areas, such as Daytona Beach, Deland, Deltona, Flagler, New Smyrna, Orange City, Ormond Beach, and Palm Coast.
Legal Assistance for Long-Term Disability Claims in Jacksonville
Unfortunately, many Jacksonville residents with disabilities don’t receive the disability insurance benefits to which they are entitled. This is often because disability insurance companies, like all businesses, aim to maintain their profits, which can sometimes mean denying claims. However, our experienced disability attorneys at the Ortiz Law Firm are committed to helping you secure the benefits you deserve.
We strongly encourage you to consult with a Jacksonville long-term disability attorney to better understand how to get your disability claim approved or reinstated. Our team can guide you through the administrative appeal process or help you file a lawsuit against your disability insurance company.
Nationwide Legal Representation
A common question we often hear is, “Can I hire you if I’m not in your area?” The answer is a resounding yes! We can represent individuals anywhere in the United States!
Although we are primarily based in Pensacola, Florida, most group plans fall under the federal ERISA regulation. This allows disability attorney Nick Ortiz and the Ortiz Law Firm team to handle cases nationwide.
Because ERISA cases typically don’t involve a jury trial or extensive discovery, they are primarily paper-driven. This allows us to efficiently manage cases by mail, fax, and email. It is highly unlikely that any court appearances will be necessary. This means we can handle a federal court case anywhere in the country.
