Here are just a few examples of our Long Term Disability appeal and lawsuit case wins in Georgia.
Amber – Banker – Suwanee, Georgia
Back Pain, Hip Pain, Complications from Hip Replacement, Avascular Necrosis
A Banker from Georgia underwent hip-replacement surgery and experienced severe complications. She had constant pain and ultimately the artificial hip caused an infection. She applied for Long Term Disability through her employer’s insurance plan and received benefits for almost two years. The insurance company stopped paying her benefits however, because they said she could return to work.
Upset at Liberty Mutual and worried about her lost income, she called Fields Law Firm for help. Our team obtained the claim file from the insurance company and found that Liberty Mutual overlooked key records about our client’s surgical complications. The Fields Law attorneys drafted a strong appeal to Liberty Mutual based on the factual and legal errors made by them, and updated expert opinions. Liberty Mutual soon after changed their denial decision. Our client received a lump-sum payment for back-pay and ongoing monthly benefits.
