About
diattorney.com is the online home of Dell & Schaefer, a national law firm that concentrates almost entirely on disability insurance claims. The site is aimed at people whose long term or short term disability benefits have been denied, delayed or terminated by an insurance company, and who are trying to figure out what to do next. From the outset, the firm presents itself as focused on disability insurance rather than general personal injury or Social Security work, and highlights its experience with both employer provided group policies and individually purchased disability policies. Visitors are invited to request a free consultation and to send their policy and denial letter for a detailed review.
The site is organized around the life cycle of a disability claim. There are sections devoted to filing a new claim correctly, handling the ongoing claim while benefits are being paid, appealing a denial, and filing lawsuits when appeals fail. Much of the content is specific to ERISA governed group policies, with explanations of strict deadlines, the importance of building the appeal record, and the limitations on evidence once a case reaches court. There is also information on privately purchased policies, physician disability claims, own occupation coverage, residual and partial disability benefits, and the tactics insurers use to try to limit or cut off payments.
A major feature of diattorney.com is its educational library. The firm publishes hundreds of articles and videos about individual insurance companies and policy types, including common denial reasons, surveillance practices, use of so called independent medical exams, functional capacity evaluations and paper reviews of medical records. Visitors can browse by insurance company name or by medical condition, such as chronic pain, fibromyalgia, back and spine injuries, heart disease, cancer, multiple sclerosis, psychiatric conditions and many others. Each section explains typical problems claimants face and what steps a disability lawyer can take to counter those strategies.
Throughout the site, the tone is practical and claimant focused. Dell & Schaefer emphasizes that it is paid on a contingency fee in most disability insurance cases, that consultations are free, and that the firm works with clients nationwide using phone, email and video. Testimonials and case summaries reinforce themes of persistent advocacy and clear communication. Overall, diattorney.com functions both as a detailed guide to the disability insurance claim process and as a straightforward way for policyholders to connect with lawyers who deal with these disputes every day.
