The most common reason a life insurance claim gets denied is for a medical condition. The insurer will argue that the insured should have told them some sort of medical information and because he didn’t, they can deny the claim. We’re experts at getting this type of denied claim reversed and paid.

New York employee life insurance claims can be denied easier than other types of claims because of the myriad of rules. Employees of New York with life insurance are subject to Erisa regulations. This means Federal rules apply to claims, instead of state laws. Your New York denied claim can only be appealed by following strict Federal rules. We make this easy for our clients. We’ve appealed and won many Erisa claims from insurance companies such as:
We’re especially adept at investigating and appealing denied life insurance claims due to drug overdose. As the opiate epidemic continues to take innocent lives, there’s not much conversation about how many accidental death claims are denied for an opiate overdose. Many accidental death life insurance policies have an exclusion for drug overdose. If the insurer concludes the person exceeded the recommended dosage of a prescribed opiate, they will deny the claim. Insurers hold the insured responsible for the amount of medication they ingest, even though many people are simply following the advice of their doctors. We know how to investigate the toxicology reports and medical assessments to uncover the truth, and get accidental overdose claims paid.
Regardless of the reason your life insurance claim was denied, you should contact us. We only represent beneficiaries of life insurance claims – never the insurance company.
