Liberty Mutual Denials

Bartolic Law helped many clients get paid by Liberty Mutual. In one client’s case, our client suffered from Chronic Migraines. The doctor Liberty Mutual hired to review our client’s medical records advised Liberty Mutual our client was not disabled because there was no objective evidence of the migraines impairing the client’s work ability. We rebutted this with the client keeping a journal of daily migraine symptoms that explained the severity of the symptoms each day, and the effect on the client’s tasks that day. We also pointed out each and every instance treating doctors noted the migraine symptoms to discredit the Liberty Mutual doctor. In another case, which we inherited from another firm that declined to file a lawsuit for the client, our client’s job in banking required the use of a computer. Despite including Carpal Tunnel Syndrome as a source of disability, and opinions the client was limited in keyboarding, Liberty ignored this connection to the occupational demands and merely concluded the client could sit and stand the required amounts for sedentary work. Liberty also changed its basis for denial after the client’s appeal, never giving the client an opportunity to address it. Despite inheriting the case other lawyers gave up on, we won a judgment for the client. We can help you defeat Liberty Mutual.
