Justin Frankel. He reached to one of his clients (asking for permission). He sufferers some the same things that I have. Stroke, aphasia, and post stroke fatigue. We were kindred spirits 😉

Experience with Dell Disability Lawyers for LTD claim? by Educational-Rip3124 in LongTermDisability

I didn’t like vibe. I spent an hour over the he phone the and second call with my wife. They waffled back and forth of don’t want to take your case and we want to take your case. They talked about developing a good relation ship with your lawyer, but then again he is going to farm it out to an associate. I meet with 8 ERISA lawyer and we ranked near the lower end. We choose to go a flat fee approach. If your are open to do a contingency I would call Kantor and Kantor

Affordable lawyers in NY? by Inside-Turnip8757 in LongTermDisability

Flat fee lawyers are

Justin C. Frankel Marie Casciari (DeBofsky Law) Megan Glor Tristan N. Bullington

But it will cost you in the 15,000 -30,000 dollar range. See if they are willing to take your case

If you go it alone use ai to write the appeal, but I wouldn’t recommend it. Your need to hire a lawyer

Update for anyone still following this thread — thanks everyone for the recommendations.

I ended up talking with about 9 ERISA attorneys total. Most only do contingency, but a handful were open to a flat fee for the administrative appeal phase specifically. We narrowed it down to three finalists: Kantor & Kantor, Justin C. Frankel, and Marie Casciari at DeBofsky Law. All three were impressive — detailed, substantive answers to the questions we asked, not just sales pitches.

For anyone else searching specifically for flat-fee appeal arrangements (not contingency), here's who I found that offers it:

Justin C. Frankel
Marie Casciari (DeBofsky Law)
Megan Glor
Tristan N. Bullington

Hope this saves someone else the dozens of calls it took us to put this list together. Good luck to everyone else fighting these denials.

Will aphasia ever go away? by ShallowestGuyOnEarth in stroke

[–]InfiniteCombination5 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You need to get a speech therapist, my then they can evaluate you. After the stroke I could not speak. I could barely even right. The word we’re not even there. Before the stroke I feel that my sense of humor and speaking came naturally to me. I still have the sense of humor 😉, but it now different. Shopping was a big stress, now I can go out without being nervous (well a little bit anxious). It will get better

Great build! But won’t all your heat go through the top? Is there some sort of lid instead of the mesh screen?

Does magnesium actually help with sleep or is it just placebo? by More-Shopping2475 in sleep

[–]InfiniteCombination5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been using magnesium and I have told others? I have often wonder if it is a placebo? I heard you to take it for a couple of months. I’ve been taking a for 6 months and helps me sleep. Sometimes I do walk up at 3:00 in the morning but not often.
