PTSD Disability Lawyers
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a debilitating condition that often develops after experiencing or witnessing a traumatic event. For many, PTSD makes returning to work or maintaining employment impossible. If you are unable to work due to PTSD, Long-Term Disability (LTD) benefits can provide critical financial relief—but insurance companies don’t always make it easy.
At Martin & Hillyer Associates, we understand the profound impact PTSD can have on your life. Our experienced disability lawyers are here to guide you through the claims process and fight for the support you need.
How PTSD Impacts Your Work Ability
PTSD can manifest in a variety of ways, including:
- Flashbacks, nightmares, and intrusive thoughts that disrupt concentration
- Hypervigilance or heightened anxiety in work settings
- Avoidance of situations or environments that remind you of the trauma
- Sleep disturbances, irritability, and emotional outbursts
These symptoms can make it difficult to hold a steady job, yet insurance companies may still question your claim.
How We Advocate for Your PTSD LTD Claim
At Martin & Hillyer Associates, we provide compassionate and thorough legal support by:
- Documenting Your Condition:
- Gathering detailed medical records and psychological evaluations to demonstrate the severity of your PTSD.
- Challenging Denials:
- Addressing common insurance tactics, such as claims that your symptoms are exaggerated or not adequately treated.
- Securing Your Benefits:
- Ensuring you receive the financial support you’re entitled to, allowing you to focus on recovery.

What to Do If Your PTSD Claim Is Denied
Insurance companies may deny claims for PTSD, often citing reasons like:
- Lack of “objective evidence” of the condition
- Claims that therapy or medication should enable you to return to work
- Arguments that your PTSD does not significantly impair your ability to function
Our team knows how to challenge these denials effectively. We’ll work tirelessly to build a strong case and advocate for your rights.
