Foster City Long Term Disability Attorney

Long Term Disability Lawyers Handling Claims in Foster City, California

Are you unable to earn a full-time living due to a disability, injury, or medical condition? You may be entitled to long-term medical benefits and disability compensation under an employer-backed insurance plan. With few exceptions, these plans are regulated by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA).

Sadly, the big insurance companies do not always make things easy on disability applicants. Many qualified people struggle to get the full ERISA disability benefits that they deserve. At Kantor & Kantor, our experienced Foster City long term disability lawyers have a proven track record of success appealing claims with large insurance companies. If your disability claim was denied in Foster City, please contact our law firm today for a free consultation.

You Have 180 Days to Appeal Your Disability Denial

Under ERISA regulations, insurance companies must send an applicant a written denial letter that explains why their benefits were not issued. This denial letter should inform you that you only have 6 months (180 days) to file an appeal. The first step of the appeals process is an administrative appeal. This means that you will send your claim back to the insurance company for a fresh look. At this time, it is imperative that you include all relevant supplemental evidence.
