In San Jose, 5.0% of the population under age 65 has a disability. Fortunately, long-term disability insurance is available to pay benefits if you are unable to work due to a covered disability. If your illness or injury prevents you from working for 12 months or more, you may also qualify for Social Security Disability Insurance benefits from the Social Security Administration.
San Jose Disability Insurance Claims
We are dedicated to helping disabled individuals get the benefits they deserve. When an insurance company wrongfully denies a disability claim, we are there to file administrative appeals and lawsuits against the carrier. We handle both ERISA group disability claims and individual disability insurance (“IDI” or “DI”) policy claims. If your insurance company has offered to buy out your claim for a lump sum, we can help you evaluate the offer and negotiate with the insurer.
The Ortiz Law Firm Handles San Jose Long-Term Disability Claims
Nick Ortiz is licensed to practice law in the state of California. The administrative appeal process can be easily handled by our firm because we can communicate with the insurance company by email, phone, fax, and mail. If we have to file a lawsuit, there are very few, if any, court appearances required, if any. For this reason, we can file a federal lawsuit anywhere in the country. As far as communicating with you, we use an electronic signature service, and then we e-mail and communicate by phone.
