Long Term Disability Settlements
A long term disability settlement involves a very significant amount of money. For the claimant, it replaces a part of the income that has been and will be lost due to injury or debilitating illness. For the insurance company, it means years, maybe even decades of substantial monthly payments. As much as we might like to think that insurance companies are there to help us in out time of need, they're not. Their primary goal is profit. So you can see that they will do anything they can to avoid having to make those payments. As recent scandals within the industry have shown, some companies may even deny or terminate perfectly valid claims. Each company has its own definition of what disability means, its own rules and regulations, and reams of fine print about how those rules are to be applied. Studies have shown that those claimants who use legal representation have their claims accepted on the first try 20 percent more often than those who do not have representation. Representation will very likely increase the size of your settlement as well. And of course, if you have to go to court, you'll need representation to present your case. Don't settle for what you think is an unfair decision by the insurance company, and don't settle for just any representation.
