Principal Financial approved our client’s claim for long-term disability benefits right away after we proved she can no longer work due to rheumatoid arthritis. Principal Financial sent our client for a medical examination with their IME doctor. Our law firm used medical evidence and help from her doctors to convince Principal Financial that rheumatoid arthritis causes chronic pain throughout her body. We argued that extensive medical treatment, including infusions, with many medical experts had not improved her pain and other symptoms to a point where she could continue working.Principal Financial approved our client’s claim for long-term disability benefits right away after we proved she can no longer work due to rheumatoid arthritis.
