Do I Need A Lawyer in My LTD Claim?

ERISA is a framework of complex federal laws, regulations, and case law that apply to group disability claims. Most attorneys, including those who handle Social Security disability claims, do not have the knowledge or experience to properly handle an ERISA-governed LTD appeal or federal lawsuit. A general practice attorney may miss administrative deadlines or fail to address critical issues in the appeal process. Unrepresented claimants risk making the same mistakes. So my recommendation is Yes, you should consult with a lawyer in your LTD claim.
