How We Help Long Term Disability Claimants

Over an individual’s career, the possibility of suffering a long-term disability is several times greater than the possibility of death. The financial blow dealt when you’re out of work for a long time as a result of illness, accident or injury is softened by benefits paid by long term disability (LTD) insurance. You may already have an LTD insurance policy provided by your employer that agrees to pay a significant percentage of your salary if you’re unable to work for extended periods of time. However, having your disability claim approved by your insurance carrier can be an uphill legal battle; one that you’re more likely to win with the aggressive representation from an experienced long term disability attorney.

Appealing a denial or termination of LTD benefits

In the event of a wrongful denial or termination of LTD benefits, an experienced LTD attorney will counter the tactics used by your insurance carrier, protect your rights and fight for a favorable outcome. A person typically has 180 days to appeal a denial. The appeal process is complicated: You need an experienced lawyer working for you.

Filing an ERISA LTD lawsuit in Federal Court

ERISA is a unique area of the law. For the most part, general practitioners decline representing claimants in these cases because they are not familiar with the legal complexities involved. An ERISA LTD lawsuit cannot be filed in State court. Pursuant to Federal Law, these cases can only be filed in the U.S. District Court. RamosLaw is well-acquainted with ERISA disability disputes and with the process in the U.S. District Court. Hiring an experienced ERISA lawyer to fight for your disability insurance claim can increase the chances of a favorable outcome in your case.
