Bay Area Attorney Advising on Individual or Private Disability Insurance Claims
Your disability insurance is likely to fall outside the realm of ERISA if you purchased the insurance privately (it was not provided by your employer) or if your insurance is provided by your church employer or government employer.
A major difference in a non-ERISA disability insurance appeal is that you may file a lawsuit in state court for a non-ERISA policy. You will not need to go through the administrative appeal that is part of an ERISA disability insurance appeal.
Private disability insurance, disability insurance for church employees and disability insurance for government employees are often non-ERISA insurance plans.
