DeBofsky Law
Disability Attorney in Seattle, Washington

About DeBofsky Law
DeBofsky Law is a Seattle-based firm concentrating its practice on disability law and employment law, two areas that frequently intersect when a worker becomes unable to continue in their job due to illness or injury. Located in Suite 350 at 3101 Western Ave, the firm serves clients who are dealing with denied disability insurance claims or employer-related legal disputes. Their dual focus on both disability and employment matters positions them to handle situations where a client may need representation on multiple fronts at once. The firm handles cases involving both private disability insurance policies and federally governed ERISA plans, which are typically the type of benefits offered through an employer. These cases can be highly technical, involving administrative appeals processes, strict deadlines, and federal court litigation when insurers refuse to pay legitimate claims. Clients in Seattle and across Washington state can reach DeBofsky Law at (206) 333-2696 to discuss their situation.

How They Can Help
DeBofsky Law helps clients push back against insurance companies that have denied or terminated disability benefits, whether those benefits come through an employer-sponsored group plan or an individually purchased policy. The firm also takes on employment law matters such as discrimination and wrongful termination, which can arise alongside a disability claim when an employer takes adverse action against an employee who is ill or injured. By handling both areas of law, the firm can address the full scope of legal problems a disabled worker might face.
What to Expect
When you first contact DeBofsky Law, you can expect an initial consultation to review the details of your denied claim or employment situation. The firm will examine your policy documents, denial letters, medical records, and any correspondence with your employer or insurer to assess what happened and what options are available. From there, the attorneys will outline the steps involved, whether that means filing an administrative appeal, gathering additional medical evidence, or preparing for federal court litigation under ERISA, so you understand the timeline and what will be required of you throughout the process.
Service Area
DeBofsky Law serves clients in Seattle and throughout Washington state, including those dealing with employer-sponsored disability plans governed by federal ERISA law regardless of where their employer is based.
