Cases Our Lake Forest ERISA Appeals Attorneys Represent

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), nearly 90% of all workers in the U.S. are provided with some type of benefits through their employer. These may be included as part of your overall wages or contributions to them may be taken out of your paycheck. Employer-provided benefits help to protect you and your loved ones, now and in the years to come. Unfortunately, when the time comes to file a claim, you may be surprised to find these benefits denied or disputed. When this happens, Bartolic Law provide the trusted legal guidance and professional representation you need.

The Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) is a complex federal law that governs employer-provided benefits and guides the appeals process. Our experienced Lake Forest ERISA appeals attorney can advise you on how this law is likely to apply in your situation. Common types of cases our legal team handles include: 

• Denied health insurance claims;
• Denied or delayed short and long term disability benefits;
• Disputes over contributions to retirement benefit accounts or the amount to which you are entitled;
• Disputes regarding payouts on employer-provided life insurance policies;
• Issues involving other types of benefits offered as part of your employee compensation package.
