Alaska Disability Insurance Lawyer Representation for Your LTD Insurance Claim

Disability insurance attorney Gregory Michael Dell and our team of Alaska disability insurance lawyers have been fighting for the rights and benefits of Alaskans and claimants nationwide since 1979. The same disability insurance carriers who make purchasing a policy from them easy frequently make collecting benefits from a claim next to impossible. You buy a disability policy in order to give yourself a financial cushion to protect you and your family if you become disabled and cannot work. It is unfair for the company to deny these benefits when you are entitled to them.

If you are disabled, unable to work and your claim has been denied, the time to fight back against the big insurance companies has come. They use high-powered law firms to find and create loopholes that allow them to limit or deny your claim. With Dell Disability Lawyers in your corner, you have no reason to fear those legal teams. We provide the legal power you need to combat this wrongful denial.

Standards of Review for Disability Appeals in Alaska

When an insurance provider avoids paying a claim by abusing their power to deny it without an adequate reason, it is referred to as acting in an “arbitrary and capricious” manner. If this is the situation in your claim, that denial may be unsound. Our Alaska disability insurance lawyers can help determine if the insurance company’s actions qualify your claim for a “trial de novo.” That means an opportunity to have your case heard again as though it is the first time. You may be eligible if the appeals court rules that a lower court was biased in their judgment and consequent denial of your claim.

Disability benefits claims made through individual policies will most likely be heard in a state court. However, under ERISA guidelines, federal courts govern group claims. If your policy was offered by your employer, it is probably a group policy, and your case will most likely be heard in federal court. Attorneys at Dell Disability Lawyers are very experienced in representing clients in both federal and state courts.

In general, a disability claim denial suit governed by ERISA can be filed in any state where the insurance company conducts business. Contact us today and let a Dell Disability Lawyers attorney evaluate your case to decide what steps should be taken next, as well as which court system you will need to work with.
