Long Term Disability Law
If you've sustained an injury or developed a debilitating illness (physical or mental) that prevents you from working, you should consider legal representation when making a long term disability claim. Your insurance provider might try to represent the process as relatively simple, but that's because they don't want you to have the same legal firepower on your side as they have on theirs. If you are lulled into thinking that this will be easy, you will likely be unpleasantly surprised when your claim is denied. The law regarding long term disability is incredibly complex. Each insurance entity, whether public or private, will have its own definitions, restrictions and deadlines. Understanding even one of them is difficult, and when you try to coordinate several sources of benefits, the complexity increases exponentially. Even if it seems that your disability is obvious, your claim may be denied at first application. Often insurers deny claims just in the hope that the claimant will become discouraged and give up. Bringing in representation early in the process makes that much less likely. And since contingency fees are typically paid based on back benefits, an early win will cost significantly less. Furthermore, claims submitted with representation tend to receive higher benefit awards. Call on the attorneys of Daley, DeBofsky and Bryant to help you present your claim.
