Accidental life insurance claim

Case won :) I searched for an attorney that specifically handled only Life insurance claims on the internet for days. When I came upon Chad Boonswang I knew this was the right firm! They made every thing easy for me to send what was needed to handle my case. They kept me informed every step of the wa...y. I was dealing with a life crisis at the time with Breast cancer as well. I lived in Wisconsin and it did not matter because I did not worry, I was confident in his team of lawyers. If your being denied payment or stalled with payment, this is the Lawyer you need to hire!! Solved very fast in 9 months, don't wait for a NO from the insurance company, hire this guy:) I AM HAPPY THANK YOU !

Life Insurance Claim

Mr. Boonswang and his team were my shinning white knights in dealing with the life insurance company after the death of my sister. Long story short; my sister was disabled person living on a limited income. In July of 2018 we didn't pay the life insurance premium; we had to help her with Augusts rent.... In August we paid a double on the premium. The same day we paid it, my sister died. The life insurance company did not want to pay the claim. At first we didn't know what to do and we were going to just give up. I reached out to Mr. Boonswang's office and in less than 2 months we know have a check from the life insurance company coming our way. Take my advise; never give up and hire Mr. Boonswang and his team to help you. They were so easy to work with.

Very Pleased Client!

I am very happy with the Boonswang Law Firm. Chad and his team got justice for my mother. My mother passed away with the notion that she was leaving her children a little something and all that was diminished when the insurance company denied the claim stating my mother had lied on her application. T...hey sent my two siblings and I a check for the premiums which amounted to a little over a hundred dollars for each one of us. I just felt this was wrong and decided to seek legal counsel. I contacted several attorneys and no one returned my calls, so I almost decided to give up. I couldn't sleep one night and decided to look online again for an attorney who would possibly take the case or at least call me back. The website for the Boonswang law firm seems like it popped up out of no where. I read that if they don't win the case; the client does not owe them anything so I sent over the consultation request form and received a call the next day (I think). It was a quick response to me. I spoke with John and he sent over all the information for me to fill out. I didn't fill the information right away because I started having doubts about beating the "BIG" insurance company. John called about a week after sending the paperwork to follow up and reiterated that if they don't win, I'm not losing anything. I sent my paperwork in and about 6 months into the case, Chad called and stated that he had reached a settlement (which was about month before the anniversary of my mother's passing). I am so GRATEFUL to Chad and his team. I would and will recommend the Boonswang law firm to anyone who is dealing with an insurance company who is denying claims thinking they can get away with it because people just don't know. Or they don't have people like the Boonswang law firm fighting for them. Thank you!

Extremely irritated

I contacted the firm about 6months ago. Chad sold the firm as being the best in the business as far as working with insurance companies that don't want to pay. After pondering on going with the firm I was very afraid seeing that they are in another state and I can't go and visit the office if I need... to. My experience so far has been horrible. I can never get any answers from anyone there yet alone a return phone call or email response. I'm big on professionalism and the employees lack in this area. Once you sign the agreement they are not so accommodating. Whenever you call your told the attorney will return your call and that NEVER HAPPENS....I'm not sure who's writing these reviews but my experience has been nothing but added turmoil.
