Evanston Long Term Care Attorney

Long term disabilities can impact people of all ages. Accidents, illnesses, and chronic health conditions can leave you unable to provide for yourself. In these situations, you may require care through a nursing home or other assisted living facility. The costs for this type of care can easily bankrupt your family. Long term disability insurance provided through your employer ensures you get the level of care you need while protecting your financial security. At the Law Offices of Michael Bartolic, our Evanston long term care attorney helps to ensure you get the benefits you are entitled to in these situations.  

We Help You Get the Long Term Care You Need

According to the Social Security Administration (SSA), roughly one out of every four 20-year-olds will eventually suffer an accident or illness resulting in disability before reaching retirement age. As a result, long term care is often required to meet both medical and personal daily needs. In these situations, long term care and disability insurance provided through your employer acts as a safety net. However, in too many cases these benefits end up being denied or disputed. 

At Bartolic Law, we act as a trusted legal advocate on your side in these situations. As an experienced Evanston long term care attorney, we have extensive experience in dealing with claims administrators and the insurance companies they represent. We fight for your rights when long term care is denied, often for one of the following reasons: 

• Disputes over your eligibility for coverage;
• Claims that your condition occurred outside the policy period;
• Questions over the type of illness or injury you suffer and whether it is covered through the policy;
• Problems with lapsed policies and benefits due to the negligence of your employer.

• Requesting policy documents and reviewing the terms of coverage;

• Making sure your employer follows established ERISA guidelines;
