Disability Insurance Denial in New Hampshire

Insurance companies may wrongfully deny legitimate disability claims, leaving many victims feeling helpless. However, it’s important to remember that you have the right to appeal your insurance company’s decision.

Over 60% of disability claims are initially denied, according to the U.S. Social Security Administration (SSA). An experienced disability attorney in New Hampshire can help you fight back and seek the benefits you're owed.

New Hampshire Long-Term Disability Insurance Denial

Long-term disability insurance in New Hampshire provides workers with compensation when they are too injured or sick to complete tasks at their job.

Unfortunately, many long-term disability insurance providers are known for:

  • Denying valid claims in order to protect their profits
  • Creating a confusing claims process to encourage policyholders to abandon their claim or make errors
  • Intentionally prolonging their decisions since appeals can’t be filed without a denial letter

If your claim was wrongly denied, it’s important to act fast so you don’t miss your chance to file an appeal.

If you were denied SSDI benefits, a New Hampshire social security disability lawyer can handle the complex paperwork required to appeal your denial. Let us help you secure the benefits you deserve from the SSA.
