Disability insurance disputes can be technically demanding, involving dense policy language, medical documentation requirements, and strict federal procedural rules. Riemer Hess can be contacted at (212) 297-0700 to set up a conversation about your claim.

Riemer Hess assists clients from the moment they receive a denial or notice of termination through the full administrative and litigation process. The firm evaluates the basis for an insurer's denial, reviews the policy definitions that apply to your situation, and works with clients to compile the medical evidence and vocational information needed to make a strong appeal. For claims governed by ERISA, the firm understands that the administrative record created during the appeal phase will be central to any later court review, making thorough preparation at every stage critical to a client's long-term options.

The process at Riemer Hess typically begins with an initial review of your disability policy, plan documents, and denial letter. The firm uses this information to advise you on the applicable deadlines, the specific grounds for denial, and the realistic prospects for an appeal. From there, they work with you to gather supporting documentation from treating physicians and other relevant sources, prepare a formal appeal submission, and respond to any additional requests from the insurer or plan administrator. If the administrative process does not resolve the matter, the firm can advise on federal court litigation under ERISA.

Riemer Hess serves clients throughout New York City and the greater metropolitan area from their Midtown Manhattan office on East 42nd Street.
