Last week, we celebrated Mothers’ Day. But all women, including those who are and are not mothers, are denied long-term disability benefits at higher rates than men — even when their conditions are equally serious and equally well-documented.

May is Disability Insurance Awareness Month.

If your disability benefits through work have been denied or terminated, there’s a strict deadline — usually 180 days — to appeal. And what goes into that appeal can determine everything if the case goes to court.

The Garner Firm represents people whose employer-provided disability claims have been wrongfully denied in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Maryland, and across the country.

It’s a trap most people don’t see coming.

Own vs Any Occupation: Protect Your LTD Benefits Now

Understanding ERISA own occupation vs any occupation standards is essential for anyone filing a long-term disability claim. The definition of "disability" in your long-term disability (LTD) policy determines whether you qualify for benefits.
