The Unique Challenges of Disability Appeals

Navigating a disability appeal can be an uphill battle. Insurance companies often deny legitimate claims for vague or unfair reasons, leaving claimants to decipher pages of complex policy language and meet impossible procedural deadlines—all while managing the challenges of their disability. These obstacles are compounded by the emotional toll of losing financial security, which can make pursuing an appeal feel like an insurmountable task.  

At Monahan Tucker Law, we know that this process is as much about your health and peace of mind as it is about your financial stability. Our attorneys are here to manage the details for you, ensuring every form, medical document, and legal requirement is handled with precision. You don’t have to fight this alone.  

Why Disability Claims Get Denied

Unfortunately, insurers often prioritize profits over policyholders. Common reasons for claim denial include:  

1. Insufficient Medical Evidence – Claims are often rejected because documentation doesn’t fully demonstrate the severity of a disability or its impact on your ability to perform your job.  
2. Policy Limitations or Exclusions – Insurance companies may misinterpret the fine print of your policy, arguing that your condition isn’t covered.  
3. Allegations of Pre-Existing Conditions – Some insurers deny claims citing a pre-existing condition, even if it’s unrelated to your current disability.  
4. Failure to Meet Deadlines – The appeals process often has strict timeframes, and missing even one deadline could jeopardize your chances of receiving benefits.  

Our attorneys are skilled at identifying these tactics and turning the tables on the insurance companies. We work diligently to gather new evidence, reassess the policy terms, and build a case that emphasizes your right to the benefits you’ve earned.
