Common Denied Disabilities
In recent years, our disability lawyers have seen an increasing number of disability insurance claim denials from people with musculoskeletal disorders, fibromyalgia and mental illness. Additionally, many people with physical impairments suffer not only from their physical disability, but also from mental health conditions, such as anxiety and depression.
When someone becomes disabled due to an indiscriminate cause, such as fibromyalgia¹ or depression, it is important to seek the advice of a Villanova long term disability lawyer who has an thorough understanding of disability insurance matters.
