Northern California Disabling Disease and Injury Disability Claims Attorney
Our federal ERISA claims attorney represents clients with a variety of conditions that may lead to long-term disability injury, including:
- Mental illnesses, including bi-polar disorder, schizophrenia and depression
- Heart disease
- Cancer
- Fibromyalgia
- Multiple sclerosis (MS)
- Severe on-the-job injuries resulting in conditions such as fractured vertebrae
Insurance providers are generally capitalistic and calculating, focused on making money for their executives and shareholders — they will usually take every opportunity to deny a claim, often framing your illness as excluded under your policy. Unfortunately, the progression of an illness may lead to related illnesses or conditions that are excludable. For example, severe pain caused by cancer, MS or fibromyalgia can often lead to depression. Benefits for depression are usually very limited, so the insurance company will deny or limit coverage on this basis instead of focusing on the underlying condition.
In another example, your insurance company may deny benefits when your cancer goes into remission or treatment is no longer being given for your physical injury, even though you are not in the mental and physical shape to return to work.
