Understanding Why Lincoln Financial Denies Disability Claims

Like many large insurers in America, Lincoln Financial is focused on limiting payouts. That means searching for any reason to deny a claim.

Some common reasons you may have received a Lincoln Financial disability denial include:

Lack of medical evidence to prove your disability
Arguing that your condition doesn’t meet their definition of disability
Arguing that your disability should not keep you from working your job
Incorrectly filled out paperwork or administrative errors
Monitoring your social media to question your limitations

Beyond simply denying your claim, Lincoln Financial may delay or draw out the process or may even try to coerce policyholders to settle for less.

The bottom line: they make more money when you refuse to fight back.

That ends with Fields Law. As experienced Lincoln Financial disability insurance lawyers, we’ve helped countless clients fight wrongful denials and secure the benefits they were promised – and paid for.

Receiving a Lincoln Financial denial doesn’t mean your case is over. It only means the fight has just begun.

Overturn of Denial

Thomas, Refrigeration Mechanic, Mayhill, New Mexico

Disability: Vertigo, Balance Issues

Problem: Thomas was forced to leave work when he started to experience vertigo and dizziness. Despite his diagnosis and symptoms preventing him from being on his feet, nor being able to lift up to 100 pounds as his job required, Thomas was shocked to receive a Lincoln Financial denial for disability benefits.

Success: The Lincoln Financial disability attorneys at Fields Laws quickly filed an appeal for Thomas in support of disability benefits, arguing that the symptoms he experienced made performing the significant physical requirements of his job impossible. Lincoln Financial reviewed the appeal and medical information our attorneys provided and quickly overturned their denial.

Reversal of Benefits Termination

Linda, Medical Secretary, Humble, Texas

Disability: Fractures Including Radius, Scapula, Tibial Plateau, Clavicle, Ribs, Tibia, and Cerebral Hemorrhage

Problem: Linda was forced to stop working as a medical secretary after a pedestrian/motor vehicle accident left her with numerous severe injuries. Two years after her accident, Lincoln Financial terminated her benefits, alleging she could return to work, despite her tibial fractures remaining unhealed.

Success: Fields Law assisted Linda through the appeals process, working with her primary care physician and pain management doctors to obtain supportive reports verifying that she would be unable to return to work. Fields Law also combed through Lincoln Financial’s administrative record, and found the initial medical record review from Lincoln’s own medical staff that stated our client would not be able to return to work. Lincoln Financial was forced to reinstate our client’s Long Term Disability benefits.

Successful Appeal of Denial

Jeanette, Conductor, Pullman, Washington

Disability: Knee Pain, Back Pain

Problem: A conductor from Washington, Jeanette was no longer able to work due to chronic knee and back issues. Her employer-provided Long Term Disability policy was initially approved, but was later denied by Lincoln Financial citing that she did not meet the Policy’s definition of Totally Disabled. Jeanette’s appeal was initially denied and the decision to terminate her Long Term Disability benefits was upheld.

Success: Jeanette turned to Fields Law for her second appeal, and our attorneys immediately began working to compile her most favorable records and documents, submitting a comprehensive appeal. Mere weeks later, Lincoln Financial reversed their decision to deny benefits and retroactively paid our client back her previously unpaid monthly benefits as a lump sum.
