Ethan was a valuable resource for me to successfully navigate my private disability claim! I was overwhelmed and struggling with the process of taking on a huge task. He walked me through how the process works; he gave me the positives and negatives of my case, and how the insurance company would be viewing it and operating. He empowered me to work through my case to a successful ending. He was extremely generous with his time and great to work with! I highly recommend that you reach out no matter where you are in your process, whether you think you may need help or not. Just make the call, you won’t feel pressured or stressed; you will leave informed and empowered. A lawyer giving lawyers a great name! Thanks again Ethan!

i was offered a settlement from the insurance company and I wanted some help in looking through the fine print and working out if I should accept it or not. I contacted Ethan Abramowitz from a recommendation of a colleague and I was not disappointed. I received fast and courteous response. All the numbers were explained to me in clear and simple terms so that I could make a decision based on that information. Everything went smoothly and I am very satisfied with his service.

Ethan Abramowitz was truly an asset during a trying time in my professional and personal life. He is knowledgeable, caring, and eager to assist. His office is easy to work with, and the cost of services was appropriate. It was a relief to have such quality support on my side, and I wouldn't hesitate to utilize his services again.

I want to thank Dominick V. LaGravinese Jr. and Beth Marr for all their help following my health issues and subsequent disability claim. I could not have done it without them! Their expertise, guidance and compassion was greatly appreciated. I would Highly recommend them for anyone trying to deal with insurance disability claims especially Dentists who have had health issues.

Excellent legal services and generous with time.

I am thankful that I was referred to Mark Seltzer for physician disability representation. Mark oversees all aspects of the claim process. Mark's knowledge, experience, and attention to detail provide reassurance during a time of uncertainty. Mark and his legal assistant Brianna are very responsive. I highly recommend Seltzer & Associates to anyone going through the disability process!

With Atty Ethan Abramowitz of Seltzer and Associates at my side, I walked through the process of filing my claim and maximizing my available benefit. It was like walking into the lion's den with a dentist who pulled teeth. If you should suffer a disability, do not hesitate to engage this attorney.

In 2021, I was faced with having to medically retire from dentistry. My insurance agent strongly suggested that I contact ETHAN ABRAMOWITZ prior to submitting any disability claims. I couldn't be an happier that I followed this advice. Ethan guided me through the entire process. He and his assistant, Monica, with my input, prepared my claims, and presented them to the insurance companies, professionally prepared and in a timely manner. Ethan advocated for me when an insurance company wasn't treating my claim fairly. Our relationship is on-going as my claims are reviewed annually. He serves as a liaison between me, my doctors, and the insurance companies. In hindsight, I couldn't imagine going through this process without his guidance. ETHAN ABRAMOWITZ is an expert in this field, and should you be faced with a similar situation, I urge you to utilize his services.

Ethan Abramowitz helped me with a personal matter with my long term disability. He was prompt, professional, compassionate, and very helpful. I would absolutely recommend him - and already have to another colleague.

Ethan was recommended to us to help us with a disability claim. He has been beyond responsive and knowledgeable in guiding us through this and helping us understand the policy. Highly recommend him!

As an educator, I teach my residents the importance of the security provided by disability insurance. The main issue that arises when going out on claim, is to be protected by having great legal representation. That’s where attorney Mark Seltzer Associates has expertise. They will make sure the insurance company plays fair and provides the protection you paid for over the many years of your practice. Mark is a hands on expert in the field of disability. Let’s hope you never need his services, but if you do, he’s the man!

Ethan and everyone at Seltzer and associates have been without a doubt the most professional, caring, supportive and successful legal team with which I’ve ever been associated. I have always had the very real impression that these folks all genuinely care about their clients. Years later, to this day I’m grateful to Ethan and the whole team at Seltzer.

I was fortunate to be referred to Seltzer and associates when I became progressively ill and it was clear I would no longer be able to continue working as a physician. I contacted the firm before filling out any disability paper work. I cannot emphasize how important it is to get a competent law firm like Seltzer and Associates involved in the process as early as possible. Their experience and competence in dealing with physician disability made a huge difference in the successful outcome of my disability claim. I highly recommend this firm if you need expert assistance at any point in your disability process. I worked closely with both Mark Seltzer and Ethan Abramowitz and found them to be responsive and highly competent.

I have always taught my children that there are attributes in life,that define an individual.They include kindness, hard work,commitment, and "doing the right thing". The constellation of the four will contribute to helping others and secure confidence in themselves. I mention this because, I needed a lawyer who possessed those four qualities and i knew, that the search would be difficult. I was frightened,anxious, and insecure, having minimal exposure to legal care in my past. Then thru the recommendation of a trusted therapist, I was led to Mr.Seltzer. Beginning with the initial phone call, he was kind,reassuring,commited to my issue, with the conviction that he would do his best for me. I took a deep breath and knew that I found a lawyer who exemplified the attributes that I taught my children would lead to success. Not only was he persistent and successful with the issue, in addition, he navigated several steep hurdles, therefore,I have been the beneficiary of his tireless effort on my behalf. Despite the near completion of my case, he continues to persue the matter with "hard work and commitment". I am indelibly grateful. His staff of paralegals could not be nicer,or more cooperative, and it is obvious that his attitude has permeated the entire staffs approach. As aforementioned,I was frightened and anxious prior to our connecting. The offices entire approach and effort have made this issue pleasant, gratifying and successful for me.I think that says it all.

Seltzer & Associates deliver top notch services. They have been representing me for nearly a decade. Ethan Abramowitz takes all the stress away as he manages the relationship with the insurance companies. He oversees and reviews all correspondences with the companies. That includes paperwork and conference calls. Ethan determined my compensation had been underpaid for 7 years. I highly recommend retaining their services.

I have been assisted by Seltzer & Associates with my disability claim for over a decade. Their firm has been an invaluable resource and source of support throughout this entire period. After functioning as a Pathologist/physician for 25 years, I was diagnosed with malignant lymphoma and underwent intensive chemotherapy and a stem cell transplant. Over the next 14 years I had three recurrences with subsequent intensive therapies, and, with Mr. Seltzer’s counsel, I retired approximately 3 years ago. Following my initial treatment, it took me a year to return to a full workload; however, I then discovered that I was no longer able to work at my prior pace. Following thorough evaluation this was determined to be the result of chemotherapy-related cognitive impairment (“chemo-brain”). As a result, I negotiated with my Group to practice at a 50% workload during a regular work week for 50% compensation. Though the disability insurance company provided complete coverage of my illness during the year of treatment while I was not working, I was unable to receive their support a year later for residual disability in my newly negotiated work arrangement. I was referred to Mr. Seltzer’s firm and they knew exactly how to assist me in obtaining the disability benefit due to me. His partner and their administrative support team helped me with everything – from showing me how to properly apply, complete, and submit forms, to arranging evaluations, to overseeing compensation calculations, to communicating with and following through with the insurance company. Though the initial struggle with the insurance company took a few months to resolve, once the benefit was finally determined, Mr. Seltzer’s team has ever since been with me every step of the way. This has included periodic additional evaluations, additional status updates, additional benefit review, etc., all required by the insurance company. Seltzer & Associates knowledge base, experience, and service was reassuring and supportive during every one of these follow-up assessments over the years. When my initially assigned attorney moved on to another firm, Mr. Seltzer himself took over my case to assure me that nothing would be lost in translation. Mr. Seltzer and I have since become very good friends during these many years, and I have gotten to know his staff extremely well. They are all extremely professional, knowledgeable, competent, friendly, and personable. The entire team has always been there for me during all my ups and downs, and together we have never missed a step. Thank you to the entire team for their professionalism and incredible service. My life would not have been the same without you! Marty K, Ohio

I used this office to handle my disability applications. They were wonderful with walking me through the details. The person I worked with mostly was Ethan Abramowitz and he was very attentive to all of my needs. I highly recommend this group.

Client is Lilia Gorovits: Ethan has been incredible and extremely helpful to work alongside with from the very first day. I'm a physician and direly needed his help when I acquired an injury that required disability. As his client, he was there for me through every step of the way and worked endlessly to help me in every way that was possible. I am extremely thankful for him and all of his hard work. He would get back to me instantly no matter how small or large the matter was, and I felt like I was in safe hands throughout the entire process. Ethan is exceptionally hard-working, diligent, pays attention to every detail, compassionate, knowledgable, supportive, dedicated, and all around a pleasure to work with during a difficult time in life. I am very grateful to have had him to advocate for me. Highly recommend Seltzer and Associated to anyone. -Lilia Gorovits

Ethan Abramowitz did an excellent job on my behalf and continues to do in follow-up. I am convinced that his experience and insight was instrumental in an appropriate outcome during a very stressful time in my life. His efforts are greatly appreciated.

Ethan Abromowitz has been my disability attorney regarding two different matters since 2017. I simply cannot recommend his services enough. He has an expansive knowledge of the law, and extensive experience dealing with disability cases involving professionals. In addition he’s been personally supportive and understanding of the life issues that come with the difficult situation his clients go through. 5/5. You can’t go wrong.
