McKennon Law Group - Los Angeles Life Insurance Lawyer
Lawyer News
Life insurance policies are meant to provide financial stability to family members after a loss. Unfortunately, insurance companies often find ways to refuse payment, deny benefits, or just pay a fraction of the benefits due under the policy. Insurance companies usually comb through paperwork to identify policy language that can be used to exploit technicalities to their benefit rather than yours. At times, a seemingly proper denial is actually improper under state of federal ERISA law.
Insurance companies are less likely to engage in underhanded tactics to deny claims with an experienced litigation attorney present. An experienced insurance litigation attorney can help hasten your recovery by making sure your claim is complete, accurate, and timely. They will ensure you meet the strict timelines during the appeals process and help you challenge any improper determinations. If the insurance company still denies your claim, your lawyer can file a lawsuit to force the insurance company to pay you your life insurance policy benefits along with a slew of other charges such as insurance bad faith damages, punitive damages, emotional distress damages, and even attorneys' fees and interest.
Founding partner, Robert McKennon has litigated hundreds of insurance bad faith and ERISA cases in state and federal courts. He is a recognized expert in the field of insurance bad faith and ERISA litigation and contributes frequently to insurance law panels and conferences.

Illinois Work Injury Lawyers – Krol, Bongiorno & Given, LTD.
Accidents in the workplace are often caused by unsafe work conditions arising from ignoring safety rules, overlooking maintenance or other negligence of those in management. While we are one of the largest firms in Illinois dedicated solely to the representation of injured workers, we pride ourselves on the personal, one-on-one approach we deliver to each client.
Work accidents can cause serious injuries and sometimes permanent damage. Some extremely serious work injuries can permanently hinder a person’s ability to get around and continue their daily duties. Factors that affect one’s quality of life such as place of work, relationships with friends and family, and social standing can all be taken away quickly by a work injury. Although, you may not be able to recover all of your losses, you may be entitled to compensation as a result of your work injury. Krol, Bongiorno & Given, LTD. provides informed advocacy in all kinds of workers’ compensation claims, including:
• Injuries to the back and neck, including severe spinal cord injuries
• Serious head injuries
• Heart problems resulting from workplace activities
• Injuries to the knees, elbows, shoulders and other joints
• Injuries caused by repetitive movements
For Illinois Workers’ Compensation claims, you will ALWAYS cheat yourself if you do not hire an experienced attorney. When you hire Krol, Bongiorno & Given, Ltd, you will have someone to guide you through the process, and when it is time to settle, we will add value to your case IN EXCESS of our fee. In the last few years, employers and insurance carriers have sought to advance the argument that when you settle a case without an attorney, your already low settlement should be further reduced by 20% so that you do not get a “windfall.” Representing yourself in Illinois is a lose-lose proposition.
