ERISA is the Employee Retirement Income Security Act. Enacted in 1974, ERISA is a federal law that sets minimum standards for most voluntarily established pension and health plans in private industry. ERISA provides protection for individuals participating in these plans.
Individuals are denied long-term ERISA disability claims for a number of reasons. It is not uncommon for an insurance company to delay, and even deny qualified requests for ERISA coverage in Colorado. In some cases coverage is denied because the extent of the injury is improperly expressed in the documents that have been filed. Because you have been denied ERISA coverage in Colorado does not mean you cannot have your case reviewed. Colorado ERISA lawyer Geoffrey S. Gulinson can review your claim and make sure you have filled your forms properly. Dependent upon the policy provisions, you may have only 180 days to file an ERISA appeal. Sometimes, again dependent on the policy language, you may have even less time, i.e. 60, 90 or 120 days. So don’t wait, please call our law offices today.
