Long Term Disability Insurance Claims
Insurance companies often do not play by the rules. You may have purchased a long term disability (LTD) policy on your own, or you may be covered by a group LTD plan through your employer. Either way, your insurer has gladly taken your premiums.
Yet when you file a claim on your policy, did your insurance company deny the claim? Did they promptly – and properly – investigate your claim? Are they giving you the runaround?
A denial does not mean your claim is defeated. Insurance companies can be very convincing to unsuspecting policyholders. Marc Whitehead & Associates has been dealing with insurance companies since 1992, and we know what it takes to prove your claim, overturn their denial, and win your rightful benefits.
If you have purchased your own insurance, find out how we can help you win long term disability benefits, even if your insurer has said “no.”
If you are covered by employer sponsored group insurance, this falls under federal ERISA law. Our attorneys are highly skilled in this complex area of insurance law. Learn how our ERISA claim attorneys can assist you.
Social Security Disability Benefits for Hot Springs Residents
Many people who apply for Social Security Disability benefits are wrongfully denied. If this has happened to you, you must not give up. At Marc Whitehead & Associates, we have successfully represented hundreds of Social Security disability claimants in Hot Springs and throughout Arkansas.
Two federal programs under the Social Security Administration provide disability compensation.
- Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) – this works like an insurance plan for disabled workers who have “paid into the system” through FICA payroll taxes.
- Supplemental Security Income (SSI) – SSI requires no work history. It is a welfare program for disabled people who have income and assets below a certain level.
It is our law firm’s mission to offer disabled residents of Hot Springs the best possible chance of winning Social Security Disability benefits and Supplemental Security Income.
Attorney Marc Whitehead is Board Certified in Social Security Disability Law by the National Board of Social Security Disability Advocacy.
