DeHaan Busse LLP is a leader in disability law including individual disability insurance policies and employer sponsored benefit (ERISA) plans. Our practice is based upon one simple premise: that individuals have the right to receive what they have paid for and what they have been promised according to the law. We focus on and believe that the safety net you have worked long and hard to provide for yourself and your family should be there when you need it. Unfortunately, more and more that is not the case. Large insurers often arbitrarily deny legitimate disability claims, despite the costly premiums you may have paid out through the years. Their decisions have resulted in the near financial collapse of many individuals and their families. In the event of a catastrophic physical or mental illness or a debilitating injury that prevents you from working in your chosen profession or occupation, you have a legal right to receive benefits either through your privately obtained disability policy or through your employer-provided (ERISA) benefit plan. Our job is to make sure you get your benefits, and that the carrier does what they promised. The sad irony is that all too often, people are not even aware of all the disability benefits they have available to them. Our partners and associates were formerly with Binder and Binder, P.C., the leading advocates for Social Security disability claimants. DeHaan Busse LLP seeks to continue that legacy, helping hard working Americans during some of the most difficult times in their lives. Our attorneys have litigated cases against many of the largest insurance companies in the disability field including Unum Provident Corporation and its subsidiaries; Metropolitan Life Insurance Company; New York Life Insurance Company; Equitable Life Assurance Society of the United States; First Reliance; First Fortis; Hartford Life Insurance Company; Berkshire/Guardian; Sun Life; and Reliance Standard among many others. The attorneys at DeHaan Busse LLP focus on Individual Disability Policies, Group Disability Policies, Group ERISA Disability plans, Federal Employee Retirement System (FERS) Benefits, New York State Retirement System Benefits, New York City Retirement System Benefits, Property & Casualty Insurance Claims, Residential Real Estate, and Wills & Estates.
