Disability litigation medical experts

Functional capacity, diagnosis validity, and vocational-medical opinions for ERISA, LTD, SSDI appeal, and disability insurance disputes.

Long-term disability and ERISA cases hinge on whether the medical record supports claimed functional limitations. Retain matches insurers and claimants' counsel with physicians who perform rigorous record reviews, address the validity and severity of diagnoses, and translate clinical findings into functional capacity terms.

Common engagements include chronic pain and fibromyalgia claims, cardiac and pulmonary functional limitations, neurologic and cognitive impairment, and psychiatric disability, each requiring a specialist who treats the condition in practice.

Our experts write to the standard these cases demand: structured, record-cited reports that survive de novo and abuse-of-discretion review alike.

Frequently asked questions

Do your experts do paper reviews or examinations?

Both. Many disability disputes are decided on record review alone; where an examination is needed, we match by state licensure.

Can experts address functional capacity?

Yes, physicians translate diagnoses into specific functional limitations (sit/stand/lift tolerances, cognitive demands) that map to policy definitions of disability.

Do you work both sides of LTD disputes?

Yes. Insurers use the platform for independent reviews; claimants' counsel uses it for rebuttal opinions and treating-record synthesis.
