We are very honored to have been named to the New York Metro Super Lawyers list as a top New York metro area lawyer for 2022. Justin Frankel has been named Super Lawyers from 2013 – 2022, and Justin Frankel was selected in 2011. Each year, no more than five percent of the lawyers in the state are selected by the research team at Super Lawyers to receive this honor. Justin Frankel has also been honored with AV-Preeminent ratings from Martindale-Hubble, a global legal publisher, and both have achieved the highest possible rating by AVVO, a leading website for consumer information concerning attorneys. Garden City resident Justin Frankel, Esq. is focused on representing long term disability insurance policy owners. He is a highly skilled and trained litigator and represents clients in court at all levels of litigation: state and federal. He represents owners of privately owned or individual long-term disability insurance policy owners whose benefits have been terminated, delayed, denied, or who are being investigated by insurance companies. Mr. Frankel represents clients in ERISA appeals and administrative proceedings, with a superior understanding of the ERISA appeals process, the highly complex laws and rules that govern the ERISA process, and the tight time frames that are so critical to this area of the law to each matter. He is an active member, Treasurer and long-standing supporter of the AHRC-Garden City auxiliary, an organization dedicated to enriching the lives of people with intellectual and other developmental disabilities. We would like to take this opportunity to thank our amazing team member, Senior Paralegal Christina Panzarella. It is with their intense commitment and dedication to our clients, the Law Office of Justin Frankel have achieved the results that have kept our firm at the forefront of disability insurance law. If there was a Super Paralegals ranking, we are confident both would be selected.
