Litigation

New Website Debuts: MyDeniedClaim.com

Pretty well done, in my opinion. www.mydeniedclaim.com

Attorney Joey James and I have worked together and he's a courtroom litigator. His most recent verdict was in a case involving Dollar General.

The website  is one that sets out what to do when a claim has been denied. These include disability claims involving UNUM, as well as:

• UNUM Life Insurance Company of America
• Paul Revere Life Insurance Company
• First Unum Life Insurance Company
• Provident Life and Accident Insurance Company
• Provident Life and Casualty Insurance Company

I'll be watching the site, and perhaps assisting folks in MD, VA, DC and the Atlantic States.

Joey James filed a retaliatory discharge claim against an employer. The former employee was allegedly fired from Dollar General after she reported an injury. The former Dollar General employee hurt her hand on the cash drawer. It then became infected and her arm had to be amputated. Dollar General denied her worker's compensation claim three days after her arm was amputated.
The jury deliberated less than three hours before reaching the $2,298,000 verdict.
