Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is chronic, progressive disease of the central nervous system. Despite the obviously serious nature of Multiple Sclerosis and the profound impact it may have on a person’s life, obtaining long term disability benefits can be an uphill battle.
If you or someone you love has been diagnosed with MS, learn how to present the strongest long term disability claim possible.
Chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia are conditions with largely subjective symptoms. Therefore, obtaining disability benefits can be challenging to prove under a long-term disability policy. Insurance companies are skeptical of claims based on self-reported subjective symptoms. They often insist that a claimant supply objective evidence in support of disability. If you are disabled because of fibromyalgia or chronic fatigue syndrome, our disability insurance lawyer can help you assemble the evidence that insurers demand to approve a claim.

Cancer is a leading cause of long-term disability. Although cancer is a frightening diagnosis, thanks to medical advances, millions of people are able to lead fulfilling lives after completing treatment.
