Lafayette Disability Claims Lawyers
Protecting the Rights of Employees
At The Willeford Law Firm, our attorneys have decades of experience with Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) law. This federal law governs employer-provided insurance claims for health, dental, retirement and disability benefits. Our lawyers understand the emotional and financial hardships associated with denied insurance claims. We dedicate substantial time, energy and resources to pursuing suitable disability compensation for our clients.
Our New Orleans ERISA attorneys possess sophisticated ERISA federal law knowledge. Our law firm is one of a few in the area that handle these complex federal court cases. It is a testament to our effective representation that we receive a high rate of ERISA disability referrals from other lawyers. We are committed to helping employees and executives obtain the best possible results.
Timing is Critical
The ERISA claims process involves an administrative hearing during which the insurance company presents its reasons for denying your claim. The administrative judge reviews the medical information to determine if there is enough evidence to support the denied claim. Taking the case to court is the only way to overturn the judge's decision.
Our attorneys are often successful at obtaining favorable results when we are involved before the end of the claims process. We understand that taking your case to court does not involve a trial with witnesses or even additional evidence. The court only evaluates the original information from the claims process.
At The Willeford Law Firm, we review all medical information associated with your case. We then identify and obtain appropriate medical documentation to support your ERISA claim. Independent medical advisors often conduct minimal evaluations and are not looking out for your best interests. We make sure that you see the right specialists and medical professionals who can evaluate your condition and provide appropriate documentation. We are committed to helping you receive proper compensation for your disability and long-term needs.
