UNUM Long Term Disability Cases

UNUM Long-Term Disability Claims: How Raval Trial Law Can Help

If you’ve filed a long-term disability (LTD) claim with UNUM and faced delays, denials, or wrongful terminations of benefits, you are not alone. UNUM is one of the largest disability insurance providers in the United States, but it has a long history of disputes involving unfair claims practices. At Raval Trial Law, we understand the complexities of LTD claims and are dedicated to fighting for your right to the benefits you deserve.

Common Issues with UNUM Long-Term Disability Claims

Policyholders often encounter various obstacles when dealing with UNUM, including:

  • Unjustified Denials: UNUM frequently denies valid claims without sufficient reason, often citing a lack of medical evidence or deeming the claimant capable of working despite medical documentation to the contrary.
  • Delayed Payments: Many claimants experience long delays in the processing and approving of their benefits, causing financial strain.
  • Surveillance and Biased Medical Reviews: UNUM has been known to use surveillance tactics and employ biased medical consultants to justify denying or terminating benefits.
  • Policy Misinterpretation: The company often interprets policy terms in ways that favor their bottom line rather than their policyholders.
  • Unfair Termination of Benefits: Even after initially approving a claim, UNUM may later revoke benefits without substantial evidence of improvement in the claimant’s condition.

Your Legal Rights Against UNUM

Insurance companies are required to act in good faith when handling claims. If UNUM has wrongfully denied your claim, delayed your payments, or unfairly terminated your benefits, you have legal options. Courts have repeatedly ruled against UNUM in bad faith insurance practices, and policyholders can challenge wrongful claim denials.

At Raval Trial Law, we specialize in holding UNUM accountable for unfair LTD claim practices. Our experienced attorneys understand insurance law and the tactics that companies use to deny rightful benefits.
