WHAT TO EXPECT

We understand how important it is for you to choose the right firm to protect your Long Term Disability benefits. Here is what you can expect from us when you decide to have Low & Canata represent you.

Overview of Our Process

Initial Consultation

We will talk to you on the phone, exchange emails or meet with you in person to determine the kind of disability claim that you have, the reason your benefits were denied or terminated, and whether we think we can help. If appropriate, we will review your claim file and discuss a representation agreement.

Applying For Benefits or Appealing Denials

This is the time to make your claim. We are thorough and creative about gathering and submitting evidence to prove your claim, leaving the insurer no reasonable basis for a denial.

Federal Court Review

ERISA claimants do not generally have a right to trial in federal court. A judge simply reviews the insurer's determination. We welcome the opportunity to present our cases to judges, as unlike the insurer they do not have a financial incentive to deny valid claims.

Federal Court Appeals

ERISA law is complex. If a district court judge denies a claim, we can and have successfully appealed such denials to the relevant Circuit Court of Appeals.
