Short-term disability (STD) coverage is intended to replace wages, in part, when the claimant is unable to work due to a temporary illness or following an accident. Due to the contracted timeline of filing a short-term disability claim, it’s especially important to seek guidance when filing a claim to meet filing deadlines and follow necessary procedures.
If you are planning to file a short-term disability (STD) claim, consulting with our disability attorneys early in the process can help you present a comprehensive file, providing insurers with less reason to deny your claim. If you file a claim that is denied, our legal team can challenge your denial.
