Denied Accidental Death & Dismemberment (AD&D) Claim Lawyer
If your AD&D claim was denied, we can help you fight back and win.
At The Lassen Law Firm, we specialize in representing clients nationwide who have had their Accidental Death & Dismemberment (AD&D) claims wrongfully denied. Insurance companies often deny these claims by citing exclusions or disputing the nature of the accident. We have the experience and expertise to challenge these denials and recover the benefits you are entitled to.
Common Reasons for AD&D Claim Denials
Insurance companies may deny AD&D claims for various reasons, including:
-
Alleging the death was not accidental but due to natural causes or illness.
-
Citing policy exclusions, such as death resulting from intoxication, drug use, or criminal activity.
-
Claiming the injury or death occurred outside the policy's coverage period.
-
Asserting that the policyholder's actions contributed to the accident, such as engaging in high-risk activities.
-
Disputing the cause of death, especially in cases involving complex circumstances.
How We Challenge AD&D Claim Denials
Our approach includes:
-
Thoroughly reviewing the policy to understand the coverage and exclusions.
-
Investigating the circumstances of the accident to gather evidence supporting your claim.
-
Challenging the insurer's denial by highlighting inconsistencies or misinterpretations of the policy.
-
Negotiating with the insurance company to seek a fair settlement.
-
Litigating the case in court, if necessary, to secure the benefits you deserve.
Case Example: $600,000 AD&D Claim Denial Overturned
A client came to us after their $600,000 AD&D claim was denied. The insurance company argued that the death was due to a pre-existing condition, not an accident. We conducted a comprehensive investigation, obtained medical expert opinions, and demonstrated that the death was indeed accidental. As a result, the insurer reversed its decision and paid the full benefit.
