Long Term Disability Appeals

Federal law (known as “ERISA”) requires that an employee whose disability claim has been denied is entitled to appeal that denial and submit additional information in support of their claim.

This is a critical time in the claim process.  Working with your doctors, an experienced disability attorney can help you present more effective medical evidence to greatly increase your chances of winning approval of the claim on appeal.  Should the company continue to deny the claim, the appeal period is also the time when the claim record can be strengthened in your favor if it becomes necessary to file a lawsuit.  

Obviously, at this point, you should consult with an attorney. Call our office and we can help you through the process. (937) 226-1212


LONG TERM DISABILITY - DISCLAIMER

Filing for benefits under your company disability plan is usually handled through your Human Resources or Benefits office. Your primary treating physician or specialist will need to complete a form to certify that your condition prevents you from performing your regular occupation. Most company disability plans also require you to be off a certain minimum period (commonly, 6 months) prior to filing for Long Term Disability status. Many companies also offer Short Term Disability plans to provide benefits during this initial period.


If you need a 3rd party to help you navigate the claims process, feel free to call us: (937) 226-1212

Mr. Henry did a great job for me to get a claim approved by the insurance company which initially denied my claim. I would highly recommend him for any matters involving insurance claims.
