Results that matter

"In workers’ compensation cases, I sometimes run into situations where a client also has an insurance claim denial. Those cases can get complicated very quickly, and they really require attorneys who focus specifically on long-term disability and ERISA disability insurance denials. That’s why I refer those clients to Michael Horrow and the team at Donahue & Horrow LLP.
They have the experience and the resources to handle difficult disability insurance disputes and aren’t afraid to challenge insurance companies when claims are denied. Just as importantly, they are great to work with as referring counsel. They communicate well, keep you informed, and handle referral fee arrangements professionally. It’s an easy referral for me because I know my clients will be in good hands."

I found this law firm to be professional, courteous, and very knowledgeable in disability law. The attorneys made clear all my rights under the law, what to expect during the process, and explained my options available. The firm was quick to answer my calls, and prompt in completing all the required paperwork. Michael Horrow did what my previous attorneys could not and got me my disability payments guaranteed for life.
