Having a Disability Insurance attorney with a reputation for litigating and winning cases is crucial for several reasons:
- Expertise and Knowledge
- Credibility and Leverage
- Negotiation Skills
- Litigation Competence
Expertise and Knowledge: Attorneys with a strong track record in disability insurance litigation have a deep understanding of the complexities involved in these cases. They are familiar with the intricate details of insurance policies, case law, and the tactics commonly used by insurance companies to deny claims. This expertise can significantly increase the chances of a successful outcome for the claimant.
Credibility and Leverage: A reputable attorney is more likely to be taken seriously by insurance companies. Insurers often aim to minimize payouts and may initially deny legitimate claims. However, when faced with an attorney known for winning cases, they might be more inclined to settle fairly and promptly to avoid the risk of a costly and potentially losing litigation battle.
Negotiation Skills: Attorneys with litigation experience are skilled negotiators. Their reputation alone can serve as a powerful negotiating tool, compelling insurance companies to offer more favorable settlements. The knowledge that the attorney is prepared and willing to go to court can lead to better pre-judgment settlements.
Litigation Experience: If a disability insurance case does go to judgment, having an attorney who has successfully litigated similar cases is invaluable. They know how to present medical and non-medical evidence compellingly and properly argue complex legal issues, such as the ERISA disability insurance law. This experience can make a significant difference in the outcome of the case.
Dealing with a disability can be stressful and overwhelming. Knowing that you have an experienced attorney with a proven track record can provide much-needed peace of mind. Clients can feel confident that their case is in capable hands, allowing them to focus on their health and well-being rather than the stress of a legal battle.
