About Life Legal.

No Surprises.

One of the most common complaints reported by clients about attorneys nationwide is the lack of communication. Clients routinely say that they don’t receive regular updates on their cases, haven’t had direct contact with the attorneys working on their cases, and aren’t quite sure what they are paying for.

We do things differently.

During our first phone call, we will ask how you prefer to be contacted—text, email, phone, Zoom, or letter—as well as when you prefer to be contacted and how frequently you wish to receive updates on your case. One of our core values is to use clear, effective, and consistent communication, and we live that value at every touchpoint. No client should ever have to wonder where their case stands, who their attorney is, or how much they will owe at the resolution of their case.

Your life insurance issue is our only focus.

Life Legal is one of the only law firms in Pennsylvania focusing solely on life insurance issues. Other firms dabble in denied life insurance claims or make a single attempt to file an appeal and then cut ties when it doesn’t pay out. At our firm, life insurance matters aren’t a sideline—they are our only line. We founded Life Legal as a full-service life insurance firm dedicated to assisting clients with any life insurance issue that may arise.

How we can help you.

We provide a full range of services designed to help bring your life insurance issues and challenges to a resolution. Our services include but are not limited to:

  • Appealing your denied claim for life insurance benefits
  • Appealing your denied claim for life insurance or long-term disability insurance benefits on a policy provided through an employer or employee group (ERISA)
  • Filing a claim for life insurance benefits
  • Expediting delayed life insurance benefit claims

Where we can help you.

We want to make your life insurance issues easier, so we can work with you without meeting with you in person. We conduct all of our communications with you via phone, email, or Zoom.

Please note:

  • Currently, we can accept delayed or denied individual life insurance clients only from Pennsylvania.
  • We can accept delayed or denied ERISA life insurance or long-term disability insurance clients from anywhere in the U.S.

We only get paid if we recover money on your behalf.

We work with our clients on a contingency fee basis. This means that unless we recover money for you, we do not get paid. The costs that may be associated with filing fees, the collection of medical records, or the hiring of experts are paid by Life Legal. If we recover money on your behalf, those costs and our contingency fee will be recouped from those funds. If we don’t recover money for you, we won’t collect the expenses that were incurred while pursuing your claim.

Count on our experience.

Life Legal’s attorneys have dedicated their careers to the legal issues that surround life insurance and to level the playing field for clients who face going up against large, powerful life insurance companies. If you have had a life insurance claim delayed or denied, we’re here to guide you through the appeal process and help you get the life insurance benefits you are owed.
