Add Comment Question: My Long Term Disability claim was denied & my disability manager had advised me that I could appeal the disapproval of this claim. Do I appeal this myself along with the supporting documents from my doctor or is this the time to get a lawyer. Answer: I'm sorry to hear about your denial. Unfortunately, the appeal process can be quite biased and is often unsuccessful. I recommend that you give us a call ASAP and speak with one of our lawyers (at no charge) to discuss your options and rights. Our contact number is below.
