About

First and foremost, Short and Long-Term Disability Insurance litigation is ALL we do. Our firm has practiced ERISA litigation since 2003. Coffman Law limits its practice to Disability Insurance Litigation, primarily under the ERISA statute, throughout the State of Florida. We also practice Disability Insurance Appellate Litigation in the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals and are licensed to practice before the Supreme Court of the United States.

“So this is going to be expensive, isn’t it?”

At Coffman Law, we believe in helping those who are disabled and cannot work, so we offer a competitive contingency fee agreement that puts most of the money in the client’s pocket. You will not owe our firm money on a contingency fee arrangement unless we obtain money for you.

We understand you want your disability insurance firm to work efficiently.

In an ERISA case, there are usually timelines that apply to the different stages of the process, where the claimant and the insurance company each have a set amount of time to fulfill obligations. We work hard to gather medical evidence efficiently, expediting the administrative process. Many of our past and present clients are amazed at the communication and timeliness of our firm.

You are important!

When you call Coffman Law, anyone who answers the phone is able to help you with your concern, whether that be providing an answer immediately, or taking your question/concern and getting back to you with an answer. We are familiar with our clients by name, not a file number.

Having an attorney that is experienced in ERISA litigation is very helpful for your case. We would be delighted to take a look at your case and see if we can help you.

So What Now?

Some of the major insurance carriers for disability policies include New York Life (formerly CIGNA), UNUM, Hartford, Aetna, Prudential, MetLife, Liberty Mutual, Lincoln Financial, Sun Life Financial, Reliance Standard, and Guardian. If you have a denial letter from one of the disability insurance companies listed above, or any other privately funded or employer-provided disability policy, call us now at 866-507-7030 to see if we can be of service to you. The hiring of an attorney is an important decision that should not be based solely on advertisements. Click the contact button or give our office a call for a free consultation today.

Our firm is honored to help people who are denied benefits in their greatest time of need. We try to get our clients as much money as we can, as fast as we can.
