Grand Rapids Long-Term Disability Lawyer
You have done your best to prepare for an uncertain future. You purchased disability insurance to provide for yourself in the event of a disabling medical condition. You’ve faithfully paid your premiums month after month, but now that you’ve developed a disabling medical condition that prevents you from working, you find that your claim has been denied. What went wrong?
Unfortunately for claimants, the insurance company is a for-profit business that would rather not pay your claim. When you need benefits, the insurance company will use every trick in the book to deny you the benefits you were counting on. If your insurance company has denied your claim, we can help you get your benefits. We can file an administrative appeal on your behalf. We can also file a lawsuit against your LTD insurance company. We assist claimants with group disability claims governed by ERISA and individual disability insurance claims.
