The disability lawyers at Riemer Hess have engaged in as much hard fought federal litigation of long term disability insurance claims as any other New York City firm. Our firm is responsible for many of the legal precedents used in the litigation of disability insurance cases under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA).
ERISA litigation can be a long, complicated, and arduous process. Knowing the basics will help you decide whether litigation is right for you.
On August 5, 2013, Riemer Hess won a landmark victory in McDonnell v. First Unum Life Ins. Co., 2013 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 110361 (S.D.N.Y. August 5, 2013).
