Denied Long Term Disability Help
Things haven’t been easy for you.

While challenging denials independently is an option, seeking guidance from a disability lawyer is strongly advised. Disability law and insurance policies are intricate and have unique nuances. Insurance companies want you to avoid getting professional help because they know they’ll likely have to pay out.

Why you should fight your denial
After receiving a denial, you may feel like giving up—like your only option is to go back to work. The fact is, you paid into benefits with every paycheque so that if you became sick you would be protected. If you give up now, you are giving up money you are entitled to and that can help you during this time. Your insurance provider wants you to give up— they are not looking out for your well-being. Don’t let them win. With Share Lawyers in your corner, you can get your disability benefits without having to deal with your insurance company further.
Should you appeal the denial?
When you’ve had your long term disability claim denied, your insurance company may suggest appealing their decision, but this may not be your best option. Appealing is challenging and often unsuccessful, as the same people who rejected your claim will be reviewing it again. To have a chance at success, you must provide new and significantly different medical information from your doctors. Similar information will likely result in further denial. The appeal process typically takes 30-90 days for a decision, wasting valuable time. If you're uncertain about appealing, it's advisable to seek assistance from our team of long term disability lawyers.
Returning to work when you’re not ready
You're caught in a difficult situation. Denied disability benefits leave you without income, while your insurance company pressures you to return to work. But going back may not be sustainable in the long term and could affect your right to future benefits. You could be risking your job and the loss of disability benefits. Prioritize your long-term well-being and avoid taking steps backward.
