Attorneys Cesar Gavidia and Gregory Dell discuss New York Life disability appeals and litigation. New York Life acquired Cigna’s long term disability book of business in December of 2019, and, unfortunately, also adopted Cigna’s biased approach to denying disability claims. New York Life will likely review and decide your eligibility for disability benefits based on their own medical staff, or hire an outside physician, rather than rely on the opinions of your treating physicians. If your claim is denied, obtaining a copy of your file, submitting a strong appeal package and obtaining an attorney is crucial to winning an appeal or lawsuit if your long term disability claim is denied.
