About
George Thompson has been litigating insurance benefits disputes for over 30 years. George is a civil litigation attorney who concentrates his practice in representing individuals and businesses in their insurance benefit recovery efforts when they have disputes with their insurance carriers concerning disability (individual, short term, long term ERISA) health, life, long term care, accidental death and dismemberment claims. He has represented clients in the initial submission of an insurance claim, the appeal of a claim denial and the litigation of a claim denial. He has experience in Federal and State Courts. Although the principal hub of his practice is the New England region, he has counseled and advocated on insurance coverage issues and claim strategy for clients from Maine to California. He has extensive experience with ERISA and alternative dispute resolution across the country. Unique, Value Added Experience For His Clients Prior to starting his own law firm, George worked for a Fortune 300 Insurance company that focused on selling individual and group long-term disability insurance. George worked as a Vice President and Managing Counsel where he mentored and managed teams of attorneys responsible for handling the company’s disability insurance litigation as well as advising the claims and underwriting departments on insurance disputes across the country. He literally analyzed thousands of disability insurance claims and was responsible for hundreds of lawsuits during his 15-year tenure in the insurance industry. He also had the responsibility for regularly updating the company’s claim department on legal developments and litigation trends that could impact their claim handling responsibilities. This experience serves George’s individual and business clients well giving George a unique insight into what went wrong in the decision to deny a client’s insurance claim. Any attorney or claim advocate can read the words in a claim file. George’s significant insurance industry experience and insight, however, allows him to tell you what should have happened or what actually happened that may not be documented in the claim file. This allows for a quicker claim or lawsuit assessment for his clients and a rapid and practical focus on what needs to be done to best represent his client’s interest.
