Posted on: .Category: Insurance Companies

Liberty Mutual Multiple Sclerosis Disability Denial

As disability attorneys, we represent unfairly denied Liberty Mutual disability claims for policyholders throughout the U.S.

Liberty Mutual has been selling group disability insurance to employers for over 60 years. These group benefits are intended to replace a portion of an insured employee’s income lost during a disabling sickness or injury.

Liberty Mutual sells group coverage for both short-term disability and long-term disability. Short-term disability provides benefits for intervals up to 13 or 26 weeks; Long-term disability provides benefits for longer durations, typically up to age 65 or retirement age.

Dentist Disability Denial

Founded 200 years ago, The Hartford Financial Services is one of the largest insurance companies in the United States and is a leading carrier of short term and long-term disability insurance. Our experienced disability attorneys represent Hartford LTD denial claims at the appeal and lawsuit stages of disability claims.

Recently, we represented a Dentist from Texas with severe back and spinal issues, lumbar spondylolisthesis, and a complete shoulder replacement in her appeal of Hartford’s decision to deny her claim for long term disability (LTD) benefits.

There was no real justification for the denial she received. The insurance company failed to take into account the substantial and ongoing medical limitations of our client’s physical impairments. They also ignored the severe impairments caused by our client’s necessary medications.

Lawsuits Against Unum

Posted on: .Category: Insurance Companies

Unum Disability Claim Denial Practices

Lawsuits against Unum, the disability insurance giant, have been the topic of TV news coverage, a multi-state investigation, state insurance commissioners, and years of negative press. More regrettably, this is also a topic around the kitchen table of many of its own policy holders whose claims were unfairly denied.

Unum sells short-term and long-term disability coverage. Many disability lawsuits against Unum fall under federal ERISA guidelines which govern group insurance benefits. Other actions against Unum include bad faith lawsuits in the matter of claims denied or terminated under individual disability coverage.

If you have been denied disability payments by Unum, you’re not alone. With Unum’s history of claims denial, it’s no surprise that lawsuits against Unum cross our desks on a steady basis.
