Firm Overview

Disability Denial is Not the End

Has the insurance company denied your group disability benefits? Are you a frustrated policyholder who needs the services of a bad-faith insurance lawyer?

If your claim for disability benefits was wrongly denied, that same claim, with proper legal representation, can be appealed and won.

Insurance companies don't always play fair. When you play by the rules, yet your insurer denies your claim unjustly, this is where we excel. We successfully take on the Big Deniers of benefits such as Unum, Aetna, Prudential, MetLife, Provident Life, The Hartford, and the rest.

Wherever you live and whatever your disabling condition is, our lawyers will fight your denied disability claim. Based in Houston, Texas, we serve clients nationwide, and our number one goal is to help you get the cash benefits you may be entitled to.

At Marc Whitehead and Associates, we fully understand the reasons, excuses, or tactics that insurance companies and government disability programs use to deny claims. Our experience and knowledge of insurance and bad faith law will be your greatest asset.

If you have questions about your claim, do not hesitate to call us for a free case evaluation at 866-708-0407.

What are your firm's strengths and style?

Why Are People Choosing Marc Whitehead & Associates?
Our law firm offers complete initial LTD application and filing services for both individual long-term disability claims and group (ERISA) disability claims.

You will never need to travel to our office. We work remotely to make the process as effortless as possible. Although we enjoy meeting with many clients in person, disability insurance systems are electronic, and so are we. With our efficient communications system, there is never a loss or delay of information exchange. Wherever you live, whatever your disabling condition, we can help you.

No money upfront: We charge no money upfront in most cases, and we front most expenses. Pursuing disability benefits and appealing claim denials involve many costs, such as medical and vocational expert fees, filing fees, medical record costs, and various others. For cases handled on contingency, any costs incurred are reimbursed to us only upon recovery.

We take care of initial LTD applications. For Long-Term Disability Insurance claims, our firm will fill out and develop your initial application so that it clearly demonstrates you are disabled or are not able to perform any work. We will build your original claim to have the best possible chance of being approved for the highest benefit possible.

If your disability claim is denied, we develop your case to be in the absolute best position to win on appeal. We handle all communications, track down and prepare all medical and vocational evidence necessary, and build up the claim correctly to appeal the denial. We address and rebut in detail every reason underlying the denial.

We work very closely with your doctors, so their input is on point to most effectively help your case. Insurance companies look for specific terminology and treatment records. Every disability insurance policy is different, with unique requirements regarding conditions and occupations. We collaborate with your physicians so they know how to present your unique information in the best possible way.

We compile all the evidence necessary – medical treatment records, doctor’s statements, missing medical evidence, vocational assessments, and more – to prove that you have the impairments you claim to have:

We contact medical and vocational experts to obtain decisive expert opinions;

We use the latest science and technology to investigate and build the details of your case;

We examine your claim file to reveal improper procedures or other discrepancies in the insurer’s handling of the claim.

We make it easy for you to stay informed throughout your case; we are available to discuss your case at any point during the process.
