Standing Up for Chicago Professionals Facing Long-Term Disability Denials
Chicago professionals—from physicians and executives in the Loop to engineers, teachers, and small business owners—depend on long-term disability (LTD) insurance to protect their income when injury or illness makes work impossible. Unfortunately, insurance companies often deny legitimate claims, leaving professionals frustrated and financially vulnerable.
Attorney Jonathan M. Feigenbaum, a nationally recognized long-term disability attorney has helped clients in Chicago, he has dedicated his career to helping hardworking professionals fight back against unfair LTD denials. With deep knowledge of ERISA law and decades of experience navigating complex disability insurance disputes, he ensures his clients’ rights are fully protected.
Why Long-Term Disability Claims Get Denied
Many professionals assume that paying premiums guarantees protection. Yet insurers frequently deny LTD claims based on technicalities such as:
- Alleged lack of “objective medical evidence”
- Misinterpretation of medical records
- Surveillance or biased “independent” medical exams
- Procedural deadlines missed by a few days
- Misapplication of policy language
Attorney Feigenbaum understands the tactics used by insurers like Unum, Cigna, Hartford, and MetLife. His strategic approach focuses on gathering persuasive medical evidence, identifying procedural violations, and crafting detailed appeal arguments that expose the insurer’s inconsistencies.
A Trusted ERISA Disability Lawyer Has Worked with Clients in Chicago
Most long-term disability policies provided through employers fall under ERISA (Employee Retirement Income Security Act), a complex federal law that governs benefit disputes. ERISA litigation requires precision, deep legal understanding, and meticulous documentation.
Jonathan M. Feigenbaum’s reputation as an experienced ERISA disability lawyer serving Chicago clients comes from years of representing professionals in both administrative appeals and federal court litigation. He ensures every claim record is carefully developed—because under ERISA, the administrative file is the foundation of your case.
Personalized Legal Strategy for Every Client
No two disability cases are identical. A surgeon with nerve damage faces different challenges than an accountant battling chronic fatigue or a marketing executive coping with severe anxiety. Feigenbaum tailors his approach to the client’s unique occupation, policy terms, and medical condition.
He collaborates closely with physicians, vocational experts, and mental health professionals to create a comprehensive portrait of how the client’s disability prevents “own occupation” work—the key to a successful LTD appeal.
