Why the Law Office of Justin C. Frankel Is the Ideal Partner for Filing Your LTD Claim
When you’re dealing with a disability that jeopardizes your ability to work — and facing a long-term disability (LTD) insurance company — having the right attorney can make a dramatic difference. Here’s why the Law Office of Justin C. Frankel, PC stands out:
Deep Expertise in Disability Insurance
From the start of his legal career through today, Justin C. Frankel has devoted his practice solely to disability insurance matters. His firm is laser-focused on long-term disability (LTD) — whether that involves preparing and filing initial claims, managing ongoing claims, or filing appeals when claims are denied or terminated.
This specialized focus means that Attorney Frankel understands the strategies insurance companies often use — from dense policy language to delays or wrongful terminations. On the firm’s website, they note: “We have seen your situation before” and “We know the insurance companies’ tactics.”
Proven Track Record of Success
When it comes to long-term disability claims, experience is important — but results matter. The Law Office of Justin C. Frankel, PC has secured over $300 million in recoveries for clients, a testament to both the firm’s strategic approach and its persistence in standing up to major insurance companies. Attorney Frankel’s peers have repeatedly recognized this excellence: he holds Martindale-Hubbell’s highest “AV Preeminent” rating and has been named a Super Lawyer in the New York Metro area for more than a decade.
These honors aren’t just plaques on a wall — they reflect years of consistent success, rigorous advocacy, and unwavering commitment to protecting the rights of disabled professionals. Clients benefit from an attorney whose reputation has been built one victory at a time, in a field where precision, knowledge, and tenacity make all the difference.
⚖ Skilled ERISA Advocate — Guiding Your Appeal When It Matters Most
Many disability insurance firms limit their involvement to surface-level paperwork. By contrast, Attorney Frankel brings decades of experience handling complex administrative ERISA appeals, a critical stage that often determines whether a claim is ultimately approved or denied.
If your long-term disability claim has been denied or your benefits have been terminated — or if the insurance company is pressuring you for more documentation or creating unnecessary obstacles — having an attorney who understands the intricacies of the ERISA appeal process is essential. Attorney Frankel’s extensive background in preparing comprehensive administrative appeals, responding to insurer pushback, and building a strong evidentiary record ensures that your case is positioned for the best possible outcome.
Personalized, Client-Focused Representation — Not a “Big-Firm” with Pass-throughs
One of the distinguishing aspects of the Law Office of Justin C. Frankel, PC is its commitment to a personal, one-on-one relationship. According to the firm, you work directly with Justin himself, supported by a small team of experienced and compassionate paralegals.
That kind of personal attention can matter a lot when you’re going through a difficult time — dealing with health issues, financial uncertainty, and the stress of fighting a large insurance company. The firm’s website emphasizes that clients are treated “with the utmost of concern and care during very difficult times.”
Real-Life Results: When Experience and Strategy Matter
The difference this kind of representation can make is exemplified by a recent case handled by Attorney Frankel’s firm: a client suffering from blood cancer and associated neurocognitive impairments. The insurance company tried to limit benefits by categorizing the condition as a “mental nervous” disorder — which would cap payouts at 24 months.
Attorney Frankel and team pushed back: they obtained neuropsychological testing, worked closely with the client’s treating physicians, and engaged vocational experts to demonstrate that the client could no longer perform the demanding functions of his job. Their appeal was successful, overturning the wrongful classification and securing full disability benefits.
That kind of aggressive advocacy — knowing how insurers often classify and delay claims, and having the resources to counter those tactics — is exactly why someone in a complex or high-stakes situation should consider using the Law Office of Justin C. Frankel, PC.
