You have options when your disability claim is wrongfully denied

When you apply for disability benefits, you expect to receive your benefits. When the insurance company denies your claim, you may feel helpless and angry. You know you have a right to your benefits, but you may not know how to pursue them.

At DarrasLaw, we help those who have been denied their disability benefits. You have options available and it’s important that you consider all of your options before deciding how to proceed.

According to the Pennsylvania Record, a case in Pennsylvania is currently underway against Unum Life Insurance Company of America. The plaintiff alleges that the insurer denied her claim for disability benefits even though she was disabled according to the terms of her policy.
