Testimonials
“When my long-term disability claim was denied I had no idea where to start with the appeal process. My very first contact with Claire exceeded my expectations. She was so helpful, not with just cursory advice, but instead walked me through the appeal process, explaining the steps I needed to take at first and giving me the courage and confidence to start the process on my own. When the appeal did not end as we had hoped, I reached back out to her and she picked up right where I had left off and helped me all the way to a successful outcome. She is very patient and detailed in her work and in the explanation of each step along the way . I am not sure where my family would have ended up without her and her firm. Thanks again!”

“After having several attorneys review my LTD claim that had been denied, only to have them tell me I did not have a strong enough case, I was fortunate enough to locate Attorney Claire Bushorn. Claire definitely has a firm grasp on ERISA. I also appreciated the fact that Claire would come to me with updates, give me her opinion, provide options and allow me to ask questions, but at the end of the day, it was up to me as to how I felt most comfortable proceeding. Had I not met Claire, I truly feel by this point I would have become so frustrated that I would have shredded the file and walked away. Having the misfortune of experiencing health issues so severe that I could no longer work, only to be denied benefits at every turn, was an awful experience to say the least. Claire was my light at the end of the tunnel in regards to my LTD benefits”
