How Does ERISA Apply To Me?
San Francisco ERISA Benefits Attorney Serving Clients In California and Nationwide
Has Your Insurance Claim Been Denied Or Delayed? Talk To A Lawyer Who Understands ERISA.
Generally, any insurance policy that is provided to you as a benefit of employment falls under ERISA, with a few exceptions. ERISA laws will then apply to insurance policies that include long-term disability, health insurance, and life insurance.
If you have had difficulties with an insurance claim under your employer-provided insurance policy, you will find that your rights are very limited due to the restrictions of ERISA. Despite the difficulty and complexity of bringing a complaint or an appeal of a claim denial, it can be done. But it must be done right.
At Pillsbury & Coleman, LLP, our attorneys represent clients whose long-term disability claims, life insurance claims, and health insurance claims have been delayed, denied or undervalued by the insurance company. We review policies and denials, advise clients on steps we can take, and handle ERISA appeals.
Our attorneys have decades of experience, in-depth knowledge, and significant resources to bring to your case in order to secure a satisfactory result. We’ve brought — and won — cases against the largest companies operating in California, including:
- UNUM (UnumGroup, UnumProvident)
- Standard
- The Equitable
- Liberty Life Insurance
- Cigna/LINA
- Many others
It is important to discuss your options with an ERISA lawyer as early in the process as possible. We can help you build a case file that will give your long-term disability claim a greater likelihood of being approved on appeal.
