Founder, The Lassen Law Firm | National Life Insurance Attorney | AVVO 10.0 Rated | Quoted by the Wall Street Journal

For over 25 years, I have practiced exclusively in the area of life insurance litigation. I represent clients in all 50 states whose life insurance claims have been denied, delayed, or disputed. As the founder of The Lassen Law Firm, I focus solely on one thing: helping beneficiaries recover the death benefits they’re rightfully owed after a life insurance company refuses to pay.

My firm handles a wide range of life insurance disputes, including:

• Delayed Life Insurance Claims – We pursue insurers who unreasonably stall or drag out payment.
• Denied Life Insurance Claims – Whether due to alleged misrepresentation, policy lapse, or exclusion, we challenge wrongful denials nationwide.
• Denied Accidental Death & Dismemberment (AD&D) Claims – We confront insurers that improperly claim the death wasn’t accidental.
• Life Insurance Lapse Disputes – When insurers allege nonpayment of premiums, we investigate notice issues and policyholder intent.
• Employer-Provided Group Life Insurance (ERISA) – We litigate denied group coverage claims governed by complex federal ERISA regulations.
• Servicemembers' Group Life Insurance (SGLI) – We represent military families in SGLI beneficiary disputes and claim denials.
• Federal Employees’ Group Life Insurance (FEGLI) – We help federal employees and their families recover denied FEGLI benefits.
• Beneficiary Disputes – We resolve conflicts between ex-spouses, children, and other competing claimants.
• Life Insurance Interpleader Lawsuits – We defend rightful beneficiaries when insurers file interpleader actions due to conflicting claims.

Life insurance disputes are rarely straightforward. Many involve policy exclusions, missed premiums, outdated beneficiary forms, or disputes triggered by divorce or remarriage. Others fall under federal laws like ERISA, or deal with unique complications surrounding military and government employee benefits.

Because we concentrate exclusively on life insurance litigation, we’re often able to resolve complex cases that other attorneys turn down. My team has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars in wrongfully denied life insurance benefits for families across the country. We work on a contingency fee basis, and we never charge a fee unless we win.

I’ve been quoted by the Wall Street Journal for my insight on life insurance claim denials and maintain a perfect 10.0 AVVO rating. Clients turn to my firm not just for experience, but because we deliver results in high-stakes life insurance disputes where the insurer is counting on beneficiaries giving up.

If you’ve received a claim denial, are facing a delay, or are involved in a dispute over who is entitled to the benefit, I invite you to contact The Lassen Law Firm for a free consultation.
