Tenacity, Expertise and Commitment
You offer time and money to an employer or insurance company in the agreement that they will support you if you suffer from injury or disability. It is a betrayal when an insurer denies or delays your rightful claim for disability benefits. At Nolan, Thompson, Leighton & Tataryn, PLC, we are passionate advocates for our clients who are often left without income or resources while dealing with medical issues. We fight to help people like you obtain the disability or health care benefits they deserve.
Not only is the long-term disability claim process difficult, but the area of law surrounding it is also complex. ERISA – the Employee Retirement Income Security Act, is the law that governs these claims. This law protects retirement benefit, health care benefit, and welfare benefit policyholders and their beneficiaries. Not just any attorney can or should handle a long-term disability claim that falls under ERISA due to its complexity.
Contact us today if you need legal assistance with any of the following:
- Disability Insurance Claims
- ERISA Claims
- Health Care Insurance Claims
- Litigation
- Mediation and Arbitration Services and Other Practice Areas
