Navigating the world of insurance benefits and disability can be almost impossible, but with the help of Miriam Sterk, the results I desperately needed came very quickly. Miriam understands the intricate workings of the insurance industry, and is able to explain them clearly, so that I could easily choose the best course of action for obtaining the surgery I needed, as well as my Long Term Disability. Miriam Sterk is a lifesaver, and I cannot recommend her services highly enough. Tanya Young

After months of dealing with a denial from our health insurance company and getting know where, I contacted Miriam. In a matter of a few months I learned the tricks of getting a claim paid and had resolve. Her expertise of knowing the right people, professional letter writing and the correct way of even mailing letters and documents was so important. I was told by the health insurance company to fax everything. (WRONG) I was so grateful for her help and will never go through this on my own again. Paula Schulman
