You Don’t Have To Settle For A Denied Claim. Let Us Fight For You.

When you’ve lost a loved one, the last thing you should be worried about is fighting a denied life insurance claim. 

Boonswang Law’s life insurance lawyers in Florida will take that burden off your shoulders, push your claim forward, and fight for every penny you’re owed.

Many life insurance carriers try to use policy wording or alleged errors in the application to justify refusing your payment. In many cases, those arguments aren’t valid.

With 20+ years of experience, our life insurance lawyers have taken on hundreds of denied and delayed claims, ERISA group policy disputes, accidental death (AD&D) denials, and TSGLI cases. 

We have recovered over $200 million for beneficiaries like you in all 67 Florida counties and across the country, including clients in California, New York, Texas, and New Jersey.

Your loved one intended benefits for you. We won’t let the life insurance company take them away.

“This was truly a difficult case, these guys are a true championship team.”

Contestability Period for Life Insurance Claims in Florida

In Florida, the contestability period is usually the first two years after a life insurance policy begins, when the insurer may take a closer look at the application before paying a claim.

During this time, the insurer may review the application, medical history, and other records to look for alleged misstatements or missing information.

A denial is not automatically valid, and our attorneys can review your case to determine whether or not the insurer had a fair reason to withhold your benefits.

What You Need To Know About Life Insurance Claim Denials

Insurance companies don’t approve every life insurance claim, and they often base denials on wrongful interpretations of the policy. This doesn’t always mean the decision is correct. 

Common Reasons Life Insurance Claims Get Denied

  • Information on the application is disputed or questioned
  • Premium payments were missed, leading to a lapse
  • Policy exclusions related to cause of death
  • Disagreements over who should receive the benefit
  • Additional scrutiny during the contestability window

Signs the Insurance Company May Be Acting In Bad Faith

  • The claim drags on without updates or clear reasoning
  • Policy language is applied in a misleading way
  • Important medical details are ignored or downplayed
  • Coverage is revoked only after a claim is submitted

Whether you’re in Jacksonville, Miami, Orlando, or across Florida, our attorneys can review the claim denial, uncover issues in their reasoning, and fight for the full benefits you’re owed.

Which Type of Benefit Dispute Are You Facing?

Insurance companies count on beneficiaries accepting their decision, but many denials can be reversed with the right approach.

Our life insurance lawyers handle a wide range of claim issues for clients in Naples, Tampa, and across The Sunshine State, challenging their reasoning and pursuing the full amount owed to you:

What To Do If Your Claim Is Denied

The steps you take after a denial can have a major impact on your ability to recover benefits.

Here’s what you can do to protect your claim:

Request the Full Denial Explanation

Ask the insurance company for the denial letter and any documents explaining why your claim was rejected.

1

Gather Your Policy and Claim Records

Keep copies of the policy, claim forms, correspondence, beneficiary information, and any other documents related to the claim.

2

Don’t Accept the Initial Settlement

Insurance companies are not always right, and some denials are based on incomplete investigations, questionable interpretations, or missing information.

3

Speak With a Life Insurance Attorney

Our attorneys can review the denial, identify potential problems with the insurer's reasoning, and determine whether the decision can be challenged.

4

Questions We Hear From Beneficiaries Like You

Can a spouse contest a life insurance beneficiary?

Yes. Changes in marital status or outdated beneficiary designations can create disputes, and a spouse or former spouse may have grounds to challenge who receives the payout.

Can a life insurance claim be paid if the policy lapsed?

It’s possible. Some policies include protections like grace periods or special provisions that may keep coverage in effect even after missed payments.

Can a last-minute insurance beneficiary change be contested?

Yes. If there are questions about undue influence, fraud, or the policyholder’s mental capacity, that change can be legally challenged.

Can a beneficiary be changed after the policyholder’s death?

No. Beneficiary designations are locked in at the time of death, and any attempts to alter them afterward should be carefully reviewed.
