Insurance Denials

You get insurance so you have peace of mind that if something goes wrong, you and your family are protected and provided for. But if your claim is denied and your insurer resists payment -- no matter the reason -- it can be frustrating and sometimes even devastating.

If your claim has been denied, the insurance lawyers at KSW Lawyers can help you file an appeal or a legal claim, and pursue the benefits you paid for in good faith. We’ve represented clients at all levels of court since 1973, and have an outstanding track record of successful results  for our clients.

Life & Disability
Life insurance and disability claim denials hit you at your most vulnerable time -- right after the loss of a loved one, or when your whole life may be radically changing due to an injury. Fortunately, a denied claim isn’t the end. Depending on the terms of your policy, the insurance lawyers at KSW Lawyers can help you fight to protect yourself and your family.
Disability Insurance
Disability insurance (short-term and long-term) can help protect an individual and his/her family from an unexpected illness or accident that leaves a person unable to work and earn an income.

Generally, disability insurance replaces between 60% and 85% of one's regular income. LTD insurance benefits generally begin when the following benefits end:
- short-term disability insurance;
- sick leave benefits from your employer; and
- employee insurance ("EI") benefits.
Long Term Disability Benefits (“LTD”)
Most LTD plans will replace 60% to 70% of an individual's normal income. Each disability plan is different. Some may provide disability benefits for up to 2 years if a person is unable to return to the job he/she had before becoming disabled. After 2 years, a person may continue to receive benefits only if he/she is unable to work at any job.

Unfortunately, a lot of times the insurance company might deny someone’s application for disability benefits, even when it is a legitimate claim. This is where our experienced Disability Lawyers team can jump in and represent your interest, obtain the necessary medical examinations and opinions, and get retroactive and future benefits for you.

The KSW Disability Team takes most of these files on a contingency basis, meaning you don’t pay anything until you get a settlement!

Chris Ness is excellent. His assistance with estate tax issues and incorporations, following the loss of a family member and related financial matters and tax filings, was invaluable. He is knowledgeable, professional, kind, and accessible. Highly recommend his services.

Chris Drinovz of KSW Lawyers is exceptional! My employment matter was rather complex. Chris provided sound advice, was compassionate and thorough during our intake and follow up discussions. His professional approach and representation secured a quick and satisfying outcome. I highly recommend seeking legal advice from KSW Lawyers; know your rights!
