If you have a disability in Mobile, Alabama, you can rest assured that you are not alone. 9.9% of Mobile residents 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 Insurance 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 look for any excuse to deny your claim. However, an experienced long-term disability attorney can help you recover the benefits you deserve and get your claim approved.
If your claim has been denied, you should request a free case evaluation. Our team is dedicated to helping you understand and navigate the appeals process, and, if necessary, the process of filing a lawsuit against your insurance company. We represent long-term disability claimants throughout 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 (ERISA). 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, involving a lot of brief writing, and a lot of correspondence by mail. It is highly unlikely that a court appearance will be necessary.
