Life & Disability Insurance Litigation
The death or devastating illness or infirmity of a family member can result in extreme financial hardship to a family. Individuals who buy life insurance, long-term care insurance, or disability insurance make this purchase to help ensure that there are sufficient financial resources to take care of the needs of the family or the disabled or elderly family member. Insurance can and often does serve as that blanket of protection. Carriers often live up to their obligations to their insureds by timely paying all of the benefits that are owed. But if an insurance company wrongfully denies benefits, individuals and families may need legal representation. P&S represents such individuals and families who have legitimate claims against life, private disability, or long-term care insurance companies. P&S will review your case to determine if you have a valid claim. If your claim has been improperly underpaid or rejected, the firm will work to ensure you and your family receive the compensation you are legally entitled to recover.
