Fearful. Exhausted. Hopeless. These are just a few of our clients’ reactions when their disability insurance benefits are denied or terminated. At Monahan Tucker Law, it’s our job to give you back your sense of safety and certainty by taking on the insurance company so you can focus on healing and moving your life forward.
Realizing and accepting that you are disabled from working is difficult enough, but navigating the complicated world of insurance claims adds even more stress to the situation. The disability itself can make the work needed to comply with the insurer’s demands almost impossible. If you’re struggling to get the disability benefits you deserve, know that help is available. A Portland long-term disability insurance attorney can help you navigate the system and get the compensation you need.
First and foremost, a long-term disability attorney can help you understand your rights and options. Understanding the legal jargon of a disability insurance policy can be confusing for anyone. It is much harder for someone who is in pain, exhausted, and often cognitively impaired by medication or their disability. Insurance companies know this and rely on it. They literally wrote the language you are trying to parse and have a huge advantage because of it. Having your own attorney review your policy and explain your rights and benefits provides much-needed clarity to the process.
If your claim is denied, a long-term disability attorney can help you appeal the decision. Sadly, legitimate claims are routinely denied or terminated by insurance companies for no good reason. Your attorney can help you understand the appeals process, prepare and file the necessary paperwork, and fight for your right to benefits.
Another benefit of hiring a long-term disability attorney is that they can help you negotiate a settlement. In some cases, it may be in your best interest to settle rather than continue to fight. An attorney can help you evaluate settlement offers and ensure that your rights are protected. Every individual has their own unique calculations to consider in determining how to best resolve an insurance claim. Whatever resolution you seek, we listen and obtain it for you.
Finally, having an attorney in your corner can simply provide you with peace of mind. Dealing with a long-term disability and the financial challenges it brings is stressful enough. Knowing that someone is standing up for you when your insurance company lets you down can make a big difference.
Dealing with a long-term disability is never easy, but having a Portland long-term disability insurance attorney on your side can make a big difference. If you’re struggling to get the benefits you deserve, don’t hesitate to seek help. With the right legal guidance, you can navigate the complex world of disability insurance claims and get the support you need to move forward. Contact Monahan Tucker Law today, and we can begin the process together.
