Insurance Companies and the Law

Insurance companies have a duty to act in good faith and to deal fairly with their insured, and it is the job of Private Disability Insurance Attorneys like Brent Adams to ensure that they do. When they fail to come through with what they have previously promised, especially when such failure is aggravated, the insurance companies may be liable for punitive damages. Punitive damages are imposed solely for the purpose of punishing, making a point and setting an example. The failure of insurance companies to do what they are supposed to do should not go unpunished.

At Brent Adams and Associates, we always go after punitive damages when the facts justify in order to put more money in our client's pocket. We feel so strongly in our capability to get you results, that we will fight for you on a contingency fee basis. That means that you do not owe us any attorney's fees at all until we get you your money. If we don't win, you don't pay, it's as simple as that.

Employee Retirement Income Security Act

Many insurance companies which issue short and long term disability insurance policies deviously attempt to try and hide behind a federal law known as the Employee Retirement Income Security Act or ERISA. If the ERISA law applies to your case, you can not get a traditional trial in court with a jury under most circumstances.

At Brent Adams & Associates, we work hard to try to exclude an insurance claim from the ERISA Act so that you can get a full and fair trial by jury. In those cases in which the ERISA law does truly apply, we will still always work as hard as we can to present an effective claim for you, and at the very least have your claim heard by a Federal Judge.

Filing your Claim

When a disability claim arises it is important that you contact a lawyer immediately. If you failed to submit the proper documentation at the time of your initial appeal to the insurance company, it may very well be too late to submit any further evidence. That is why a Private Disability Insurance Attorney must be involved before you file an appeal to the insurance company.

At Brent Adams & Associates, we have the experience you need to get the results you desire. It does not cost anything to call us to evaluate and discuss your case.
