Attorney Claim Handling Gives Claimants Protection Against Hartford
Peace of mind and protection against claim denial is the reason our clients rely on our disability lawyers to manage their Hartford disability claim. Claim approval does not mean that Hartford will pay benefits for as long as you want them. We have known Hartford to be aggressive in their hunt for reasons to deny long term disability claims. The Hartford claim rep assigned to your long term disability claim is required to review your claim every month and determine your eligibility before a benefit check is issued. Hartford has the right to stop paying benefits at any moment they believe that the claim is no longer supported. Our law firm offers a unique flat monthly fee service in which we take over the handling of every aspect of your claim with Hartford so that you only deal with our firm. In the video above we discuss our monthly claim handling service.
The Benefits Of Having Our Law Firm Handle Your Hartford Claim Are Multiple:
- Hartford can no longer contact you for any reason as all communications both oral and written must come to our office;
- We complete every claimant statement with you;
- We work with you and your doctor to complete each Attending Physician Statement;
- We prepare you for visits with your doctors so that your doctor will properly document your medical records in accordance with Hartford requirements;
- We make sure every monthly benefit check is received timely and paid correctly;
- We alleviate the anxiety commonly caused by receiving letters from Hartford and unprepared phone calls;
- A Hartford rep or third party investigator cannot come to your home unannounced;
- We limit the scope of any medical exam requested by Hartford and make sure you don’t get examined by a doctor known for claim denials;
- We consult you on things you can do that will not jeopardize your benefits;
- We give you piece of mind knowing that you have a lawyer that knows every detail of your claim and is ready to take immediate action if your claim is wrongfully denied.
Does Hartford Think There Is A Problem Because You Have A Lawyer?
From our experience Hartford prefers for a claimant to have a lawyer representing the claimant as it becomes a business to business relationship rather than a business to consumer relationship. There are no games played by Hartford when our law firm is involved. Hartford has probably handled more cases with our law firm than any other law firm in the country. There is a level of respect and competency that has been recognized by Hartford and we focus on getting our clients monthly benefits paid in a timely and efficient manner. We are a law firm that fights aggressively if our client’s disability claim is denied, but unlike most other law firms we don’t fight unnecessary disputes during the claim handling process that will only lead to a further delay in payment of your claim. We know that our clients rely on the consistent and timely payment of their Hartford disability check. We protect your claim to make sure the Hartford disability benefits are paid for as long as you need them.
