Learn More About Us
The ERISA Law Group represents claimants in all stages of their group disability or life insurance claim. From helping you apply to claims monitoring to appealing and litigating your claim and buy-outs, ERISA Law Group guides you through the legally challenging world of group benefits. ERISA Law Group is also prepared to defend your win in appellate courts or, if appropriate, to try to overturn your loss to help you recover benefits.
Success in ERISA claims requires broad knowledge of applicable Federal law. An internal or administrative appeal is only as good as the attorney who litigates your case. Litigation, too, takes a multi-pronged approach. Your lawyer must be able to handle your case through both the trial court and, if necessary, the appellate court, in order to maximize your chances of a successful result.
This is where the ERISA Law Group comes in. We have litigated in every Circuit in the United States. We have knowledge of how ERISA law is different in different circuits and how the law of some jurisdictions can inform and help with litigation in other areas of the country.
Dealing With Insurance Companies on Your Behalf
Insurance companies are business organizations. They collect premiums, pay and deny claims, and make investments, all in the name of protecting company profit and shareholder equity. When they are functioning at their most reliable, they handle your claim like an investment — an unfortunate but true fact. No matter how strong your appeal is, if it's not supported by lawyers who are willing to fight for you in court, it is likely to fail. That's because a plan or insurance carrier knows that without the potent threat of litigation, it can afford to deny appeals — even good ones.
The same is true for buy-outs. No business organization is going to pay out a lump sum of money if it doesn't have to. If the liability of litigating your claim plus the carrier or plan's risk of losing is high, then the likelihood that you will receive fair treatment in settlement increases. If your lawyer is inexperienced at litigating ERISA claims, then your prospects for a buy-out will suffer.
That's why, at the ERISA Law Group, we regard every disability and life insurance claimant we represent as an opportunity to "increase your odds" of obtaining as much of your maximum benefits as possible, whether through continued payments or settlement.
In ERISA benefits claims, you must have more than one winning hand. You have to have the legal muscle to achieve your goal. You cannot expect justice from carriers or plans. You have to be willing and able to fight for your rights — administratively, through internal appeals, in litigation in federal district court, and in a civil appeal to a federal circuit court, if necessary.
