Here are just a few examples of our Long Term Disability appeal and lawsuit case wins in West Virginia.
Billy – Store Manager – Beckley, West Virginia
Diabetic Nephropathy, Chronic Kidney Disease, Hypertension, Coronary Artery Disease
A manager of a Kroger’s grocery store in West Virginia suffered from a number of different conditions. After attempting to continue working despite his condition, he soon realized he simply couldn’t work. After applying for Short Term Disability benefits, his insurer denied his claim. Their denial claimed that the medical information available did not provide clinical findings that would preclude him from working.
Not sure what he should do, he reached out to Fields Law. After completing his review of our client’s file from Metlife, our attorneys developed a plan to fight the denial. We updated medical records and obtained a report from our client’s treating doctor and drafted a winning appeal. Metlife reversed their decision and reinstated the client’s benefits and paid all the past-due benefits. Our client was relieved and grateful to have his sole source of income back.
