Support in Privately Purchased & Employee Disability Insurance Claims

Navigating long term disability plans through your employer may present difficulties in obtaining benefits.

Our goal is to simplify both the application and benefit-receiving phases for you.
No Fees Unless You Win Your Case
Individuals such as professionals, business owners, freelancers, and consultants holding private disability policies might encounter heightened scrutiny and an elevated likelihood of denial from insurance companies. Our support, available at any stage of the process, improves your prospects of successfully obtaining benefits, whether during the claim filing stage or at any other point in the proceedings.

“I found Share Lawyers on Facebook in June 2023 after being abruptly cut off from my benefits by my insurance company. I couldn't understand how they could make such a brash decision as I had already been on long term disability for 2 years, and there had been no change or improvement in my health. I was left with no income, no potential to return to work any time soon, and getting nowhere with my insurance company. Share Lawyers reviewed my case and took me on and helped me through a very tough year. They were very responsive, knowledgeable, thorough, and professional, and I am so thankful I found them when I did. In the end, my insurance company settled with me, and I can now breathe a sigh of relief knowing that I can afford to keep a roof over my head while I focus on healing. I would 1000% recommend them!”
