- ERISA Traps ERISA is a very complicated statute and there are many technicalities that can prevent a policyholder from ever having a chance to correct an erroneous decision.
- ERISA Restrictions ERISA nullifies many state laws that are designed to keep insurance companies from acting improperly.
- What You Can Do There are things you can and should do now to help ensure the success of your ERISA claim.
- Disability Claims Denial In some circumstances, insurance companies do not have to show that they were correct in denying a disability claim; they only need to show that the denial was not arbitrary or capricious.
- Disability Claims Appeals The ERISA appeals process is highly regulated with important deadlines to meet and procedures to follow. Our attorneys know the system and strive to make it work for you.
