How Can You Win Your MetLife Disability Appeal?
With strategy, collaboration and execution you can get your MetLife disability claim approved. Every MetLife disability benefit denial is unique because everyone has different medical conditions that prevent them from working, the definition of disability is different in most MetLife disability policies, and lastly your prior work experience and education will have a big impact on the ability to perform any job. Our law firm’s history of winning disability appeals comes from working very closely and strategically with you, your treating doctors, and vocational consultants. We take a custom approach to how we handle every appeal and we look forward to discussing your MetLife disability denial with you. As you begin the process to get your MetLife disability denial reversed we encourage you to watch our video below about How to Win Your Disability Appeal.
Most MetLife disability benefit denials are based on MetLife’s determination that you do not have sufficient medical limitations which prevent you from working in a specific occupation or any occupation. While MetLife may first notify you of a disability denial via telephone, the basis for MetLife’s denial is required by The Law to be included in their denial letter and the documents supporting the disability denial must be contained in the claim file. In your MetLife denial letter, MetLife gives you the right to request a complete copy of your claim file and that is the first step we take.
Why is MetLife Required To Send You All Information Used To Deny Your Disability Claim?
ERISA regulations require MetLife to prepare and send your claim file within 30 days of a written request. We draft a very specific request for the claim file so that MetLife cannot hide any documents or information that we think can help to win your appeal. The claim file is supposed to include all information relied upon to deny your disability benefits, which would include medical records, financial records, internal emails, memos and notes, your disability plan documents, video surveillance and any medical reviews and vocational reviews conducted by MetLife.
The MetLife claim files provided are often intentionally disorganized and require legal experience in order to know what information in the claim file is relevant to preparing a strong Appeal. Your claim file may contain thousands of pages of evidence, and once we receive your file, we immediately organize and analyze all information so that we can prepare a plan of attack that puts You in the best position to have Your short term or long term disability benefits reinstated.
There is only one chance to submit a MetLife appeal and it must be drafted strategically.
How Does A Plan of Attack Help You Win a MetLife Disability Appeal?
After our lawyers complete a full review of your MetLife claim file and review all of your up to date medical records, we formulate a plan of attack that we believe must be followed in preparation of your MetLife appeal. Every plan is focused on determining what additional medical documentation and support we can obtain to prove your disability. You only have 180 days from your date of benefit denial to submit an appeal so it’s important to act quickly in order to submit a timely appeal package. 180 days may seem like a lot of time, but you really want to have as much time as possible so that you can obtain as much additional medical and occupational support as possible. It’s not easy to get in quickly for doctor appointments and it takes time for doctors to complete documentation on your behalf.
We Help You Prove That MetLife’s Doctors Are Wrong
MetLife will commonly deny a long term disability claim on the basis that you have insufficient medical documentation and/or support from your doctor and instead will rely their own employed doctors or nurses to deny your disability claim. Regardless of what your doctors may have concluded, MetLife will almost always favor the opinions of their own doctors over yours. The way to overcome this inherent bias is to present strong medical evidence in support of disability that no reasonable person could disagree with.
As a practical matter, Doctors don’t like dealing with insurance companies, and while they want to help you they get frustrated. Your doctors document your medical records for the purposes of treating you and not for an insurance company review. As a result, most doctors do not document all of your limitations and complaints for purposes of a disability claim. Through our experience in helping thousands of disability claimants we educate your doctors about your disability insurance policy language and work with your doctors to document your medical conditions appropriately.
Obtaining strong written support from all of your treating doctors is usually the most challenging aspect of preparing a MetLife Disability Appeal.
Custom Attending Physician Statements Are Essential
Our job during the appeal process is to work with you and your treating doctors to obtain medical evidence that rebuts MetLife’s doctors (or hired doctors) written opinions. The attending physician statements created by MetLife and previously completed by your treating doctors are generic and intentionally designed by MetLife to offer limited support for your claim.
In every appeal we handle, we draft custom attending physician statements for completion by your doctors. Our physician statements are specific to your MetLife Long Term disability policy definition of disability and your specific medical condition(s). With every type of medical condition we know the exact information Metlife and their doctors are seeking as evidence of disability. If you have more than one condition that may impact your ability to work, and are treating with more than one physician we will reach out to all relevant treating doctors.
In addition to a custom physician statement we may suggest additional diagnostic testing or medical consultations with different medical specialists if we believe it will help bolster your claim. In some appeals, we will have you undergo a Functional Capacity Exam (FCE) or an Independent Medical Exam (IME). The results of an FCE are shared with your treating doctors as they can provide strong support for your functional limitations. In some appeals, we will submit medical literature from leading medical publications which support your symptoms, limitations and potential risks associated with your condition.
Metlife Appeal Success Story
Our client was a contract manager that was diagnosed with Toxic Encephalopathy, chronic fatigue and chronic pain. She worked as a contracts manager for a large tech company. Metlife denied her claim for long term disability benefits on the basis that she did not have sufficient medical support. In our video below, Attorneys Gregory Dell and Alex Palamara discuss how we prepared an appeal that resulted in a reversal of Metlife’s denial of disability benefits.
Why Must Your Appeal Contain Strong Occupational Evidence?
In most MetLife disability denials, MetLife will argue that if you can sit in a chair for 6 hours a day then you should be able to work. This is obviously a ridiculous conclusion , but you must submit occupational evidence that any job requires more than just an ability to sit. MetLife’s denial letters will usually misrepresent your job duties or list other jobs they think you can perform for 40 hours a week. Depending upon the applicable definition of “disability” at the time you become disabled, it is critical to review how MetLife has determined the duties of a job they say you can perform.
The occupational evidence that must be presented in your appeal will depend upon whether your definition of “disability” is either the inability to perform your “Own occupation” or the inability to perform “Any Gainful Occupation”. Own Occupation and Any Gainful Occupation are defined terms in your MetLife disability policy. In most MetLife disability policies the definition of disability is Own Occupation the first 24 months and then it switches to the more difficult definition of Any Gainful Occupation. Most Metlife disability denials happen either at the inception of disability claim or when the definition of disability changes at the 24 month mark.
How Does MetLife Determine The Duties of an Occupation?
MetLife will rely on their own vocational consultant to determine how either your job is performed in the national economy or how any other job is performed in the national economy. This means that MetLife ignores the way you actually performed your job for your employer and randomly determines how your job is performed nationally. MetLife will also come up with their own opinions about how any job is performed regardless of who the employer may be.
To rebut MetLife’s unreasonable occupational assessments, we regularly work with vocational experts in order to clearly define the duties of a specific job and the physical requirements to perform a specific job for 40 hours a week. A vocational expert will prepare a detailed report which reviews the duties of all jobs suggested by MetLife, review your medical records, review your restrictions and limitations, and explain why you are unable to perform the job duties suggested by MetLife. If necessary, the vocational expert may also perform a labor market analysis discussing the availability and salaries of specific jobs.
In many denial letters, MetLife will come up with jobs that are not available in your area and that make these job suggestions unreasonable. As additional occupational evidence we may also submit employer statements from your co-workers, your job description, a personal statement from you about a typical day at the job, industry reports, and samples of work product produced in your job.
We provide a lot of detail in our Appeals to explain why you cannot perform the specific job duties of either your job or any job. Depending upon your definition of disability when you are denied, we also present evidence in our Appeals that can get you approved for benefits if your definition of disability will change at the 24 month mark. We don’t want you to win an Own Occupation appeal only to be denied again because you don’t qualify under the Any Occupation definition of disability.
Metlife Appeal Success Story
Our client was an IBM sales executive that was unable to work due to occipital neuralgia, trigeminal neuralgia, chronic severe headaches, lumbar and cervical pain. Metlife approved her claim for 9 months and then denied long term disability benefits based upon a paper medical review by a Metlife hired doctor. In our video below, Attorneys Gregory Dell and Cesar Gavidia discuss how we prepared an appeal that resulted in a reversal of Metlife’s denial of disability benefits.
How Courts Review MetLife Disability Appeals
This section contains some technical legal information and we will try to make it as simple as possible. Most MetLife disability appeals are governed by a law called ERISA and you must understand ERISA laws in order to prepare and write a strategic appeal. There is only one chance to submit a MetLife appeal and it must be drafted in a manner so as to not tell MetLife everything they did wrong. Most people, including lawyers that don’t focus their legal practice on MetLife appeals, will submit appeals where they basically give MetLife a roadmap on how to review the appeal by telling MetLife everything they did wrong on the initial review. They will include unnecessary or dated case law and a detailed criticism of everything MetLife did wrong. This is not the proper way to submit an appeal and really does nothing more than guide MetLife as to how to conduct a “reasonable review” of your initial claim denial.
What Does A Reasonable Review Mean Under ERISA For A MetLife Appeal?
The “reasonable review” language is key because if your appeal is denied by MetLife and an ERISA lawsuit is filed, a judge must review the denial and apply an unfair legal standard called “abuse of discretion”. The abuse of discretion standard requires a judge to first determine if you are disabled. If the Judge concludes you are disabled, then the Judge can only reverse the benefit denial if he or she thinks the review conducted by MetLife was unreasonable. So a Judge can find that you are disabled, but MetLife’s unfavorable review of your claim was reasonable. In this scenario your denial will be upheld as the Judge must defer to the reasonable review conducted by the insurance company.
No matter how big or powerful MetLife may seem, we have recovered disability insurance benefits for more than 95% of our MetLife clients.
Why Drafting A Strategic MetLife Disability Appeal Is Crucial
Because of the abuse of discretion standard that applies to any MetLife disability policy that contains a “discretionary clause”, we always draft a strategic appeal that focuses on your medical restrictions/limitations and how you are disabled in accordance with your disability policy’s definition of disability, rather than simply saying what MetLife did was wrong. By telling them what they did wrong, it actually helps MetLife create a record for litigation that could be perceived as more reasonable. There are a few states where the discretionary clause is illegal and the judge’s decision on the claim will be final regardless of the reasonableness of MetLife’s appeal review.
Regardless of the standard of review that will apply to your MetLife disability appeal denial, our lawyers have a very specific style of organizing, preparing and drafting MetLife disability appeals letters which have helped thousands of disability claimants nationwide to receive their disability insurance benefits.
Let’s Discuss Your MetLife Disability Denial
When we review your claim we will give you an immediate and honest opinion about your chances of recovering disability insurance benefits from MetLife. Don’t let MetLife or anyone else convince you to handle your Appeal without legal help as you are about to go to battle against a company that generates billions of dollars a year in revenue. To help you learn as much as possible about MetLife and the ERISA Appeal process we encourage you to review all of the helpful information listed below.

Our goal is to get your application for disability income benefits approved. Applying for disability benefits can be a difficult process and the information you provide is critical. Most disability insurance companies look at your application in hopes of finding a reason to deny your claim. Your disability company will ask you to complete numerous forms, interview you, request lots of information, speak with your doctors and possibly request to have you examined by their "hired gun" doctor.
Through our experience of having helped thousands of disability insurance claimants, our lawyers will guide you through the entire application process and give you the best chance to get your disability claim approved the first time.
If your disability insurance benefits have been wrongfully denied, then our lawyers know exactly what it takes to get your disability claim approved. You only get once chance to submit an Appeal, therefore every piece of evidence that will support your disability claim must be included. The goal is to win your disability benefits at the Appeal level, but while preparing your Appeal you must consider how a federal judge will review your disability claim if your benefit denial is upheld.
Preparing a strong disability appeal package is an art that requires you to understand how the courts interpret your disability policy language, ERISA regulations / laws, and how to strategically present evidence in support of your definition of "disability". We encourage you to contact any of our lawyers for a free immediate review of your disability denial.
98% of the disability insurance lawsuits filed by our law firm have resulted in either the payment of benefits or a lump-sum settlement agreement. Our disability lawyers have filed ERISA governed and private policy long term disability insurance lawsuits against every major disability insurance company in state and federal courts nationwide and we love fighting for the "little guy" against the multi-billion dollar insurance company giants.
We have recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for our clients and we would like the opportunity to provide you with a free review of your disability benefit denial. There are many complex factors in a disability benefit lawsuit and the legal battle to win long term disability benefits can be fierce.
Approval of long-term disability is a continuous process as every disability insurance company will evaluate your eligibility for benefits on a monthly basis. You can never let your guard down and assume that your disability company will continue to pay your benefits for as long as you think you need them.
Our law firm offers a reasonable flat fee monthly claim handling service in which we handle every aspect of your long-term disability claim and do whatever it takes to make sure you are paid every month.
Let's discuss if a lump-sum settlement or buyout of your disability insurance claim is both available and makes financial sense for you. Our lawyers have negotiated more than five-hundred million dollars in disability insurance buyouts and we know how to get you a maximum settlement. A disability insurance company is not required to offer a buyout and not every disability company offers them.
We are disability insurance lawyers that know how to get your short or long term disability benefits paid. As a nationwide law firm we have helped thousands of disability insurance claimants throughout the United States to collect hundreds of millions of dollars of disability insurance benefits from every major disability insurance company.
In more than 98% of our cases, our lawyers have been able to either get our clients paid monthly disability benefits or obtain a one-time lump-sum settlement.

Who do you help?

We have helped individuals in almost every type of occupation with monthly disability benefit payments ranging from $1,500 to $50,000.
Our clients include all types of employees ranging from retail associates, sales representatives, government employees, police officers, teachers, janitors, nurses, pilots, truck drivers, financial advisors, doctors, dentists, veterinarians, lawyers, consultants, IT professionals, engineers, professional athletes, business owners, and high level executives.
A strong understanding and presentation of the duties of your occupation is essential for securing disability insurance benefits.

We have partner lawyers in every state and we have filed lawsuits in most federal courts nationwide. Our disability lawyers represent disability claimants at all stages of a claim for disability insurance benefits. There is nothing that our lawyers have not seen in the disability insurance world.
What are your fees?
Since we represent disability insurance claimants at different stages of a disability insurance claim we offer a variety of different fee options. We understand that claimants living on disability insurance benefits have a limited source of income; therefore we always try to work with the claimant to make our attorney fees as affordable as possible.
The three available fee options are a contingency fee agreement (no attorney fee or cost unless we make a recovery), hourly fee or fixed flat rate.
In every case we provide each client with a written fee agreement detailing the terms and conditions. We always offer a free initial phone consultation and we appreciate the opportunity to work with you in obtaining payment of your disability insurance benefits.
Do I have to come to your office to work with your law firm?
No. For purposes of efficiency and to reduce expenses for our clients we have found that 99% of our clients prefer to communicate via phone, email, fax, GoToMeeting sessions, or Skype. If you prefer an initial in-person meeting please let us know. A disability company will never require you to come to their office and similarly we are set up so that we handle your entire claim without the need for you to come to our office.
How can I contact you?
When you call us during normal business hours you will immediately speak with a disability attorney. We can be reached at 800-698-9159 or by email.
