Indianapolis Federal Court Lawyers
Indiana Insurance Claims Appeals Lawyer
Experienced Federal Court Attorneys in Indianapolis, Indiana
If you have been denied insurance benefits, you need an attorney well-versed in federal court practice to navigate the federal court system. The majority of insurance cases are governed by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA), which is federal law. However, even if your claim is not governed by ERISA, there is a high likelihood that it will end up in federal court. Cases are moved to federal court if the parties reside in different states and if the amount in controversy exceeds $75,000.
The O'Ryan Law Firm is one of the few law firms in Indiana that is focused on ERISA law. As a result, our attorneys have extensive federal court experience and can help you file, appeal or litigate your insurance claim in federal court.

At the O'Ryan Law Firm, our ERISA-focused practice has given us significant federal court experience. Due to our extensive experience in federal court, our attorneys routinely appear before the same judges repeatedly. As a result, the judges know us and they know our reputation.
