“Kate” was a successful attorney at an insurance company before she became incapacitated by major depression. She applied for and was granted disability benefits. After receiving benefits under her policy for over 10 years, she was informed by the insurance company that her disability was being re-evaluated. As part of the re-evaluation, the insurance company wanted to interview Kate in her home.
Kate was referred to Riemer Hess by her Social Security attorney. Kate is a very private person and did not want the intrusion of the insurance company at her home. The Firm negotiated with the insurance company and arranged for the interview to take place in our office. The Firm also thoroughly prepared Kate for the interview by reviewing with her their knowledge of questions the insurance company representative was likely to ask, and by conducting a mock interview.
The insurance company determined that Kate remained totally disabled. Her benefits were continued without interruption.
