Reliance Standard Life Insurance LTD ERISA Case My LTD claim with Reliance Standard was denied after having received benefits for years and my appeal was subsequently denied, despite there having been no changes to my health. I spent several months fruitlessly searching for an attorney to take my ...case. I live in North Idaho and there were no ERISA attorneys in my area. Additionally, my benefit was referred to as small which made it an undesirable case for the “standard” attorneys I spoke with. I serendipitously came across the Google ad for McKennon law at the tail end of the window to be able to file a legal claim. I was contacted within 24 hours of submitting the online contact form. I was able to retain McKennon Law and I had hope for the first time since the denial. From the very beginning, the team was responsive, compassionate, understanding, and willing to educate me on the process. I was continually impressed with their professionalism, expertise, and dedication as we worked through the ultimately 30-month process. My case was filed in US District Court for the District of Idaho and the team retained and worked seamlessly with the experts in my district. Even though my benefit was small, the team at McKennon Law recognized that it was huge for my family. They worked diligently on my behalf and ultimately won my case. While I hope to not have to utilize their services again, I would not hesitate to retain them in the future should the need arise. There is simply not a high enough recommendation I could give to McKennon law for the work they have done.

I was originally referred to McKennon Law Group PC from another lawyer. They had given me a few other firms to call when I needed help with navigating a Long-Term Disability case after having to leave my job due to medical reasons. My initial consultation was with Joe McMillen, and he was well info...rmed and patient regarding all my questions. I ended up hiring McKennon Law Group PC on an hourly basis and was awarded Long Term Disability. Then after multiple surgeries, Lincoln Financial denied my disability claim without cause. Knowing that the appeal process could be a very long process, especially if it ended up in trial, I called a few other law firms. The attorneys at the other law firms were so abrasive on the phone, it felt like I was just a case, not a person and was bothering them with my questions. Since I had a good result with McKennon Law Group PC the first time, I decided to hire them again for my appeal on a contingency fee basis. The main reason I chose them was due to Joe McMillen. He is personable, very detailed oriented and had very quick response times. I would not hesitate to refer anyone to McKennon Law Group PC.

After talking to multiple attorneys here in Illinois (at least 10!), I got nothing but discouragement in regard to pursuing an appeal to my claim for ADD Death benefits on a life policy from my employee benefits. When I lost my 62 yr. old husband to premature death from injuries in an accident, my s...tress level went through the roof when my group insurer, MetLife, denied my accidental death claim on the ground that my husband died from his preexisting heart condition and hypertension and not from his car accident. I finally went online to search for a firm that was successful in challenging MetLife, and I found the McKennon Law Group PC. If you are looking to hire an ERISA accidental death and dismemberment benefit lawyer, stop your search! I cannot say enough about how well Robert McKennon, Joe McMillen, and their team performed for me in this case! I give McKennon Law Group PC the highest possible marks: 5-out-of-5 stars!! Robert McKennon and Joe McMillen were absolutely fantastic! It took a leap of faith for them to even to pursue this case, especially given all the complex issues! Bob and Joe prepared and submitted an excellent, detailed, masterful appeal that made novel arguments under Seventh Circuit ERISA law (which applied since I live in Illinois), and we won. MetLife reversed its denial decision based on the firm’s amazing work and I was paid the entire policy benefit plus interest! Needless to say, I am extremely grateful for this blessing. May God bless you for what you do. Thank you for believing in the possibility of this very difficult claim and winning it despite the many challenges. You have been so very professional, and even the time frame from initial contact to completion was miraculous! Thank you for all your assistance. You are awesome!
