Avoiding Common Pitfalls in Life Insurance Claims, A Guide for Rhode Island Beneficiaries

Accepting Denial Without Action

One of the most critical mistakes a life insurance beneficiary can make is accepting a denial without taking any action. It’s essential to recognize that denials are not the final verdict. Insurance companies may employ tactics to discourage beneficiaries, but it’s crucial to challenge these decisions. At Trief & Olk’s Life Insurance Law Firm, we urge beneficiaries not to concede defeat but to seek the assistance of experienced attorneys who understand the intricacies of life insurance claim policies.

The Importance of Trial Litigation

In the face of denial or delay, having a trial lawyer willing to take the life insurance company to court is paramount. Some beneficiaries make the mistake of settling for an attorney who lacks trial experience. Insurance companies often respond more promptly and seriously when faced with the prospect of litigation. Our team at Trief & Olk consists of seasoned trial attorneys with a proven track record in life insurance litigation. We are committed to bringing insurance companies to the table quickly, ensuring a swift resolution for our clients.

We are dedicated to providing effective representation to beneficiaries, regardless of the challenges posed by the insurance company.

Recognizing the Timing Factor

Timing is of the essence when dealing with denied or delayed life insurance claims. Insurance companies may prolong the claims process, causing additional stress to beneficiaries. Engaging a life insurance attorney with trial experience can expedite the resolution by compelling the insurance company to act swiftly. Trief & Olk is well-equipped to navigate the timing challenges associated with life insurance claims, ensuring our clients receive the benefits they rightfully deserve.

If there is any possibility of winning your life insurance case – this is the place to do it for you. They are efficient, honest and will achieve the best possible outcome.

Shelly Friedland worked on my case where a life insurance policy had lapsed and was even a few days beyond the grace period. Farmers had rejected my claim twice and was unwilling to take a second look. Shelly was able to get them to pay the entire claim without going to court, and the full amount was deposited in my account within a couple months. Highest recommendation.
