If you suffer from a disabling condition in Mobile, Alabama, you can be sure that you are not alone. 9.9% of the Mobile population under the age of 65 have a disability. If your condition prevents you from working, you may need to apply for disability benefits from the Social Security Administration or a long term disability insurance policy. Our office assists long term disability and Social Security Disability claimants nationwide.
Long Term Disability Claims in Mobile, Alabama
Unfortunately, many disability claimants are denied the benefits they deserve. Insurance companies are profit driven and will actively seek out any excuse to deny your claim. However, an experienced long term disability lawyer can help you recover the benefits you deserve and maintain approval of your claim. If your claim has been denied, you should request a free case evaluation. Our team is dedicated to helping you understand and navigate the appeal process, and, if necessary, the process of filing a lawsuit against your insurance company. We represent long term disability claimants anywhere in the United States.
Most long term disability claims (not all, but most) are governed by a federal regulation called the Employee Retirement Income Security Act. Under ERISA, you do not have the right to a jury trial, and – in most cases – you do not have the right to engage in extensive discovery. This means that most of the work is paper-driven, involves a lot of brief writing, and a lot of correspondence by mail. It is highly unlikely that a court appearance will be necessary.
