It has become over the years we have represented claimants in Short Term Disability and Long Term Disability claims that insurance companies make a habit of denying claims that involve a relatively small amount for total benefits. I say “relatively” because the amount of money to the insurance company is truly a pittance but for our clients, that money may be critical.
One reason insurance companies can do this is that it is hard for claimants to find representation in these situations. Many attorneys who handle these claims are looking for “low-hanging fruit” claims involving significant monthly benefits over an extended time period. Our law firm takes a different tack. While we are grateful when one of these cases comes, we make sure we carefully examine the claims of all who call us. We will make every effort to find a way to successfully secure all of the benefits to which our clients have a rightful entitlement.
Another thing that sets our law firm apart is that we are not seeking to pursue benefits from which a contingency fee can be paid. We also walk our clients through every difficulty cases of this type can present. We can fairly confidently say we have been on just about every “horizon” cases of this type present. This includes starting from pre-claim counseling to filing Short Term Disability application, transitioning to Long Term Disability benefits, completing and filling out forms, handling interview requests, counseling with doctors and the like, through the point of appeals and lawsuits, if necessary.
We are a full service law firm for those with Short Term Disability or Long Term Disability claims. Give us a call and we would be happy to discuss your claim. We are available at 407-839-0005 or, toll free, 844-454-5995. If you would like, after discussing your case, we can set a conference. In most circumstances, that conference would be free of charge but in no circumstance would you be under any obligation to hire me nor would you feel any pressure from me to do so.
