Beware of unreasonable Prudential Disability Insurance lump sum buyout offer
Our law firm was recently contacted by an individual that was receiving long term disability income payments from Prudential. This disability claimant has been on long term disability for approximately 12 months. His disability is the result of a disabling knee condition.
