Litigation Attorneys
When you need an attorney to aggressively fight your insurance company, choosing the right law firm is the most important decision you will make.
With over 70 years of experience, the McKennon Law has specialized in long-term disability and short-term disability insurance, life insurance, health insurance, accidental death insurance, and long-term care claims, as well as all types of ERISA litigation claims involving employee benefits, including group insurance claims, pension claims and severance claims.
We founded McKennon Law for one purpose: to provide you with targeted, highly effective representation geared to pursue the best possible results. Our single-minded focus is on promptly and efficiently achieving the results you deserve.
I am incredibly grateful for the exceptional work of McKennon Law Group PC in getting me the long-term disability benefits I so desperately need. I thought my case was hopeless after being denied by the insurer and battling my own serious health issues. They went to bat for me, even successfully appealing my case to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. They did an amazing job of getting the appellate court to reverse a judgment against me. I couldn’t have asked for better representation.
I would like to thank Joe Hoff with The Mckennon Law group for representing me and successfully winning my dispute against a disability insurance company for denial of disability benefits. Joe guided me brilliantly through legal process with patience, understanding and professionalism. When I was looking for legal representation I turned to my daughter who happens to be an attorney in a different legal field she had recommended Mckennon Law group for their reputation in the legal field I needed and she was correct. I was very pleased I took her advice.
I highly recommend McKennon Law Group PC for their invaluable help with our life insurance claim conflict. In Los Angeles County, only a few attorneys specialize in ERISA and similar policies, and fewer still were willing to handle our case. McKennon Law Group PC not only took on our case but also devoted significant time and effort to ensure we provided all necessary information to bolster our position. Their exceptional team of attorneys undoubtedly eased the complexities of this process, delivering outstanding outcomes for us. We have full confidence in their ability to assist others navigating disputes with their life insurance providers.
