RW Lawsuit against Metropolitan Life Insurance Co. Recovers Settlement for a Former Family Practice Physician Disabled by Chemical Dependency

Private Long Term Disability and Insurance Bad Faith | U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Georgia

Our client was a former family practice doctor disabled by chemical dependency, who also became blind in one eye after his disability started. Client’s submissions to the insurer did not address his blindness. We filed suit, and asked the insurer to re-evaluate its position in light of the client’s vision problems. The case eventually settled confidentially.
