Life insurance is designed to provide peace of mind and to ensure that loved ones are provided for. Death benefits should be promptly and efficiently paid after a death. Many times though while the insurance company may have gladly accepted premiums they are reluctant or refuse to pay benefits.

At the Law Office of James R. Snell, Jr., LLC, we work to ensure that our clients experiencing denied or contested life insurance claims receive the benefits they are entitled to. Examples of situations where a life insurance attorney can assist in denied life insurance claims include:

• Allegations of false or incomplete information included on a policy application

• Challenges as to who the correct beneficiary is

• Allegations that the life insurance policy was not actually in effect at the time of death

Depending on the situation you may only have a very limited time to contest an insurance company's decision regarding the benefits claim. If you are experiencing any problems in collecting life insurance benefits please contact our office at (803) 359-3301. There is no charge to speak to a  South Carolina Insurance Law Attorney about your situation.
