Did New York Life Group Long-Term Disability Insurance Deny Your Claim?
New York Life is a multi-billion dollar insurance company that primarily sells individual and group life, disability, and supplemental insurance policies. Employees, and others associated with organizations that purchase group disability insurance coverage from New York Life, have every legal right to expect that the company will honor its obligations and pay benefits when covered individuals suffer disabling injuries or illnesses. Our New York Life Group Insurance Claim Attorney understands these insurance companies and how to deal with them and what benefits they offer.
Unfortunately getting paid does not always happen. Sometimes, a worker who has a valid group long-term disability claim covered by a group policy issued by New York Life gets push-back from the company when seeking their benefits. New York Life might wrongfully deny a valid claim altogether, or it may delay paying causing late payment charges, stained credit or bankruptcy.
It is illegal for New York Life to wrongfully deny or fight valid group disability insurance claims. Covered workers who have the misfortune of running up against resistance from New York Life often need the help of an experienced group long-term disability claims law firm to obtain their rightful benefits.
DarrasLaw is America’s top disability firm who daily defends those denied their benefits.
About New York Life Group Long-term Disability Insurance
Despite the New York in its name, New York Life issues group long-term disability insurance policies to companies and organizations nationwide, including employers, unions, and “affinity groups” (organized groups of people who share a common characteristic, such as military veterans groups, or school alumni associations). These policies cover group members for disability from injuries or illnesses. Their purpose is to provide a financial backstop to covered individuals who lose their ability to work and earn an income because of a disabling health condition or injury.
The group long-term disability insurance benefits New York Life sells represents a lifeline for covered disabled individuals. Without those long-term group benefits, people covered by a New York Life group long-term disability insurance policy may not have enough money to pay for care, food, or living expenses. Policy holders count on New York Life to honor its legal and contractual obligations to pay long-term group disability benefits when benefits are due.
About Wrongful New York Life Group Long-Term Disability Insurance Claim Denials
In the event of an injury or illness that puts someone out of work and unable to earn a living, New York Life group long-term disability insurance policies should pay benefits quickly and promptly once the injured or ill person makes a valid claim. That is what should happen.
Like any insurance company, New York Life has a strong reason not to pay full, prompt long-term group disability benefits. Unfortunately insurance companies make a profit by holding on to money, not by paying it out.
Choose Our New York Life Group Insurance Claim Attorney To Defend You
Too often insurance companies take their need to investigate and confirm the validity of a claim further than necessary. Instead of doing an accurate check of a claim, they cross the line into wrongfully denying valid claims just to save a few dollars – leaving covered individuals in desperate financial straits.
Throughout the United States, it is illegal for any insurance company to wrongfully deny all or part of a valid claim. No matter where you live, the laws of your state prevent New York Life, and any other group long-term disability insurance company, from saying no when you present that company with compelling medical evidence and proof of your legal right to receive group long-term disability benefits.
