Long-Term Disability Denial

If you are covered by a long-term disability policy through your employer, it is likely governed by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act, which is a federal law that protects employee benefits. If you have suffered an injury or illness that has prohibited you from working, you should make a claim for long-term disability benefits under your policy. If your claim is denied, you have the right to appeal this denial, but should hire an attorney to first, help you through the appeal process, and second, to file a lawsuit in federal court if your appeals are denied.
