Arkansas ERISA Claim and Short-Term Disability
Many people have private disability insurance policies purchased directly from an company, agent, or their employer. People have such policies so that they will have long-term disability income in the event of sickness or an injury that keeps them from working.
All too often, an insurance company will delay and deny benefits for a long time. When the times comes that you need that long-term disability insurance the most, the benefits are simply not there.
If you have long-term disability (LTD), the insurer usually requires that you apply for Social Security Disability (SSD). If the company can delay your claim and deny it long enough, your SSD benefits will begin and they can deduct that amount from the monthly amount they pay you. Before that happens to you:
