Life, Health, Accident, Disability and Employee Benefits, ERISA

At NLdH, our lawyers take pride in being able to assist clients with the most complicated matters related to life, health, accident, disability and other employee insurance benefits, as well as ERISA plan issues.

We help our clients design strong platforms to ensure that they are properly addressing these issues. Our consulting services are built on the belief that working proactively can save large amounts of time and money by avoiding disputes and the litigation that could follow.

Of course, we know that no matter how prepared our clients are, there will always be the potential for disputes. Our team of attorneys is experienced in litigation. We know the courtroom. We know how to achieve success, regardless of the complexity of the legal issues your business faces.

Our law firm offers the following services pertaining to life, health, accident, disability and employee benefits, as well as ERISA plans:

  • Counseling insurers, plan sponsors, fiduciaries and TPAs with regard to DOL and IRS compliance, HIPAA compliance and claims handling issues
  • Counseling plan sponsors and TPAs with regard to fully-insured, self-insured, stop-loss and excess risk arrangements
  • Counseling insurers and other claim fiduciaries with regard to determinations of eligibility for benefits and the interpretation of plan terms
  • Litigating claims for benefits, including claims for life, health, disability and accidental death
  • Drafting policy exclusions, endorsements, summary plan description language, and statements of material modification provisions
  • Litigating bad faith cases arising from claim denials by non-ERISA plans
  • Handling claims for unpaid pension withdrawal liability payments under the MPPAA
  • Addressing potential fraud issues related to life, health, accident, disability and employee benefits

Our clients turn to us not only because of our extensive experience representing companies in the insurance industry, but also because our more than 30 years of industry experience extends beyond the courtroom. We know the business of insurance because lawyers from our firm have worked for insurance companies as claims adjusters, branch managers and more. This is the knowledge that allows us to meet the needs of our clients.

NLdH is proud of the reputation we have earned throughout the insurance industry. Learn more about our record of success.
