I thought would have to face the insurance company on my own until was referred to McDermott Law. Mary Sue , Lisa and Shawn helped me through the difficult times of getting my Long Term Disability benefits reinstated. They answered all of my questions (and there were many) and kept me going when I was at my lowest moments trying to fight back. Later when my husband became disabled they fought for him too. We can’t thank them enough!
