Did Your Disability Benefits Insurance Company Deny Your Claim?

Did your disability benefits insurance company deny your claim? Did your disability benefits insurance company deny your claim and tell you that it had a review of your file done by some doctor it hired? Did your disability benefits insurance company deny your claim and question your credibility?

On this last point, the disability insurance company probably didn't call you an out and out liar. In its letter telling you that it was denying your claim, it probably said something like it had your file reviewed by some doctor it hired and file review did not find "objective evidence substantiating your complaints" or something like that. But their calling you a liar.

Courts often take a dim view of disability insurance benefits insurance companies that turn down claims based on a file review while questioning the credibility of the claimant. One example is Javery v. Lucent Technology, Inc. Long Term Disability Plan, No. 12-3834 (6th Circuit, February 3, 2014). 

Don't just let the disability insurance benefits company come up with some bogus reason to turn down your claim; contact Lexington, Kentucky disability insurance benefits lawyer Robert Abell at 859-254-7076.
