Have Your Short Term Disability Benefits Been Denied?
Knowledgeable ERISA Attorneys in Indianapolis, Indiana
Short term disability insurance can be a valuable means of making ends meet when an illness or injury keeps you from working and collecting a paycheck. But if your insurance claim is denied, how will you pay the bills? Will your savings make up for your lost time at work?
At the O'Ryan Law Firm, we help people obtain the short term disability benefits that are so important in the immediate wake of an illness or injury. Employer-provided disability benefits are protected under a federal statute called ERISA (the Employee Retirement Income Security Act). We are one of the few law firms in Indiana that focuses on ERISA claims.

Short Term Disability Benefit Solutions
Short term disability benefits are available for people who are unable to work, but don't yet qualify for long term disability benefits. However, the insurance company may still go to great lengths to deny you the benefits you deserve. They may tell you that your disability does not fall under your insurance policy — that the pain you are feeling is imaginary or that you are just trying to get out of work. They may even resort to bad faith practices to keep from having to pay you.
At the O'Ryan Law Firm, we are dedicated to helping our clients obtain the short term disability benefits they need and deserve. We have extensive experience in ERISA-related legal matters, including appeals and ERISA litigation. One of our firm's attorneys, Bridget O'Ryan has experience working inside an insurance company — giving us a valuable perspective on the tactics they will use to keep people from getting paid.
