Life Insurance Lawyer FAQs
A: A life insurance lawyer is your advocate, ally, and advisor during the life insurance claim benefits process. Filing a claim and dealing with a life insurance company is an unfamiliar and confusing experience for most people. When you have to deal with such matters during an already difficult time after losing a loved one, speaking with an experienced life insurance lawyer during a free initial consultation can provide answers and peace of mind. If the insurer is not responding to you or has disputed or denied your claim, Life Legal will intervene on your behalf to ensure the insurance company fulfills its promises and gets you the benefits you deserve as quickly as possible.
A: Life Legal provides our services on a contingency fee basis. That means you won’t receive a bill or have to pay us anything until and unless we recover money for you. We want to ensure our clients don’t have to worry about the cost of life insurance disputes so they can hire someone they trust to professionally manage their case from start to finish.
A: Absolutely. Because insurance companies know we are fully prepared to take them all the way to trial to get fair compensation for our clients, most cases we handle are resolved through negotiation and settlement. However, our attorneys are seasoned litigators who are always ready to pursue a lawsuit and go the distance whenever a life insurance company refuses to offer everything our clients deserve.
A: The length of time cases take to resolve can vary significantly. Even though having a life insurance dispute attorney on your side can certainly speed up the process and light a fire under the insurance company, many variables still impact the timetable. Life Legal’s team works exclusively in this unique practice area so we can move quickly, efficiently, and effectively to put your claim on the fast track. We’ll work to build a strong case from the beginning to get your life insurance benefits claim dispute resolved as quickly as possible.
A: Definitely. Since life insurers prefer not to pay claims whenever they have even the flimsiest excuse, they often deny claims even when the claimant has done everything right and the policy terms clearly provide for benefits. The insurer hopes you won’t understand your rights or that you will accept their denial and give up and abandon your claim. By hiring a life insurance lawyer, you put the insurance company on notice that you will not be taken advantage of and that you will fight for what you are entitled to. Once you retain us, we take over the claim and negotiate on your behalf, so you don’t have to worry about it. We know that after a loved one passes, the last thing you want to do is haggle with the life insurance company over benefits that are rightly yours under the policy.
A: Yes. Life insurance companies are, unfortunately, notorious for dragging their heels throughout the claims process. They may not return phone calls or emails promptly or even fail to respond altogether. Insurance companies are in business to make a profit, and part of that is limiting and delaying what they pay out in claims. Our firm holds life insurance companies accountable and gets them to fulfill their obligations.
