Pursuing ERISA Disability Benefits?
SEE HOW WE CAN HELP

How ERISA May Affect You

If your short- or long-term disability insurance is provided through your employer, disputes about your claim are most likely governed by the federal law known as the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (“ERISA”). In most cases, this means your remedies are limited, and the rules and regulations for pursuing those remedies are much different and more restrictive than you would expect. While ERISA-governed claims are supposed to be evaluated by administrators in a non-adversarial way, they frequently are not.

Don't Face Your Claim Alone

The perils and pitfalls awaiting unrepresented ERISA claimants leave most exposed to a denial that cannot be reversed in court because of the unusual rules applicable to litigating such cases. It is incredibly important that you put a qualified legal professional on your side as you navigate this complex process. Schedule a free initial consultation with our attorney today to get started. From our office in St. Louis, Missouri, we proudly assist individuals in the surrounding areas, including Clayton, Maryland Heights, Ferguson, Kansas City, Springfield, Columbia, and Joplin.
