ERISA Claims: Protecting Your Rights to Employee Benefits
If your long-term disability benefits, health insurance, pension, or other employee benefits have been denied, delayed, or wrongfully reduced, you may have a legal claim under ERISA (the Employee Retirement Income Security Act). ERISA is a complex federal law that governs employer-sponsored benefit plans and sets rules for how claims must be handled.
At Greenbaum & Pinto, we fight for employees and policyholders who have been unfairly denied the benefits they are entitled to under ERISA. Our experienced ERISA attorneys understand the challenges you face and will aggressively advocate for your rights. Whether you need help appealing a denied claim, negotiating a fair settlement, or litigating your case in federal court, we are here to protect your interests.
What Does an ERISA Claim Involve?
Under ERISA, employers and insurance companies must follow strict rules when handling benefit claims. Unfortunately, many employees face unfair denials and obstacles when trying to access the benefits they rightfully deserve.
Common ERISA claims we handle include:
Long-Term Disability (LTD) Denials – Insurance companies wrongfully deny or cut off disability benefits. Short-Term Disability (STD) Claims – Employers or insurers fail to approve valid claims. Health Insurance Disputes – Coverage for necessary medical treatment is denied. Retirement & Pension Issues – Employers fail to provide promised benefits. Life Insurance Claims – Wrongful denials of life insurance benefits owed to beneficiaries.
Many of our clients have paid into these benefits for years, only to be wrongfully denied at a time when they need them most. We fight back against these injustices.
How We Help You Fight for Your Benefits
The ERISA claims process is complex, and insurance companies often use technical loopholes to delay or deny valid claims. Our ERISA attorneys understand how to navigate these legal obstacles and hold employers and insurers accountable.
Reviewing Your Denial Letter – We analyze the reason for denial and strategize the best approach. Gathering Strong Evidence – We collect medical records, expert opinions, and employment documents to strengthen your claim. Handling Appeals Efficiently – ERISA requires a strict appeals process—missing deadlines can result in losing your rights. We ensure your appeal is filed properly and on time. Negotiating with Insurers – We aggressively push for a fair resolution without unnecessary delays. Taking Legal Action When Necessary – If the insurance company refuses to pay, we are prepared to litigate in federal court to protect your rights.
We do not let insurance companies or employers take advantage of hard-working individuals. We will fight to get you the benefits you are legally entitled to.
