Our attorneys understand that, when it comes to employer-provided long-term disability insurance, the deck is stacked against disability policyholders and in favor of the insurance company. Our experience, knowledge and legal skill can help even the odds. We've taken many of the big insurance companies to court and won, including UnumProvident (now called UnumGroup).
Legal Help for People With Disabilities
Employer-sponsored insurance benefits are governed by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act or ERISA, which severely restricts the rights of employees. Insurance companies can often deny claims without threat of an insurance bad faith lawsuit and meaningful remedies. Disabled people whose disability claims are denied must follow complex procedures and meet strict deadlines for appeal in order to have any chance of receiving benefits.
Sadly, you cannot trust that you will be treated fairly or reasonably by your insurance company. People with legitimate disabilities are routinely denied disability benefits.
You CAN trust the ERISA lawyers of Pillsbury & Levinson, LLP to protect your interests and increase your chances of receiving long-term disability benefits. To learn how we can be of assistance to you, please contact a Bay Area long-term disability attorney today. From our offices in San Francisco, we represent disabled clients throughout California.
Our law firm focuses exclusively on representing policyholders in insurance-related disputes. If your long-term disability policy is not covered under ERISA, we can still help you. Visit our main law firm website to learn about our insurance bad faith practice.
