Understanding Your Rights When It Comes To Private Long-Term Disability Insurance

Long-term disability insurance provides income benefits should you become disabled as the result of an injury or a long-term illness. Many people purchase these plans through their employers as an Employment Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) plan. However, given the limited rights and heavy restrictions involved in filing ERISA claims, many people prefer the range of benefits offered through private insurance policies. Unfortunately, better benefits do not equal a better disability claims process.

Insurance providers are focused on the bottom line. This means that legitimate claims are often denied. Insurance companies may claim that a disability stems from a pre-existing condition, or retroactively rescind or cancel a policy due to a late or missed payment, or find another basis for denial. Whether you are preparing your disability insurance application or are facing a denied disability claim, our Bergen County law firm can help.
