Mark Scherzer :: Health & Disability Claim Lawyers

Mark Scherzer practices health and disability claim law from his office on the fourth floor of 49 Nassau Street in Lower Manhattan, a location that puts him close to the federal and state courts where many insurance disputes are resolved. His firm is listed under the general Lawyers category on Yelp and holds a perfect 5-star rating, reflecting the level of personal attention he brings to each client matter. For people dealing with a denied disability or health insurance claim, navigating the appeals process alone can be overwhelming. Scherzer's focused practice means clients are working with an attorney who concentrates on the specific legal frameworks that govern these disputes, including ERISA, which controls most employer-sponsored benefit plans and imposes strict procedural deadlines.

Scherzer helps clients at every stage of the insurance claim process, from reviewing an initial denial letter to preparing and submitting formal administrative appeals and, when necessary, pursuing litigation in federal or state court. His work covers both health insurance coverage disputes and disability income claims, including long-term and short-term disability policies issued through employers or purchased individually.

When you contact the firm, the first step is typically a consultation to review the denial or dispute at hand. Scherzer will examine your policy language, the insurer's stated reasons for denial, and any deadlines that may affect your right to appeal. From there, he can outline the available options, whether that means an internal appeal, an external review, or a federal court filing under ERISA, and give you a realistic assessment of how to proceed.

The firm serves clients throughout New York City and the surrounding region, with particular accessibility for those located in Manhattan.
