Our attorneys represent clients injured in motor vehicle accidents, slip-and-falls, and workplace incidents. We negotiate with insurers to recover compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and pain. With former insurance professionals on staff, we understand claims tactics and secure maximum settlements for clients across California and Nevada.
Social Security Disability
We assist clients with SSD applications and appeals after initial denials. Our team navigates the complex requirements for work credits and medical documentation. With extensive experience in administrative hearings, we help clients secure benefits for long-term disabilities that prevent gainful employment.
Long Term Disability
Our firm handles ERISA-governed disability claims and appeals for employer-sponsored policies. We prepare comprehensive submissions to prevent denials and represent clients in federal court proceedings. We coordinate SSD and LTD claims to maximize total benefits while ensuring compliance with policy requirements.
Insurance Bad Faith
We challenge insurers that wrongfully deny or delay benefits through bad faith practices. Our attorneys leverage insider knowledge of insurance operations to prove breach of contract claims. We recover unpaid benefits plus punitive damages for clients in California and Nevada.
