UNUMPROVIDENT SETTLED WITH STATE REGULATORS, AGREES TO RECONSIDER 215,000 DENIED DISABILITY CLAIMS

UnumProvident reached a settlement, as part of a multistate government investigation, to reconsider 215,000 denied disability claims. Quadrino & Schwartz began the fight against UnumProvident in November 2002 by filing the nation’s first class action seeking this type of relief for thousands of disabled individuals across the U.S. The time for an individual to participate in the government settlement expired in the spring of 2005.

If you are a victim of UnumProvident and did not participate in the government settlement you will now be part of the class action being prosecuted by Quadrino Schwartz, which was certified by a federal judge in Tennessee on September 4, 2007.

UnumProvident’s disability insurance divisions operate under the following names:

Paul Revere Life Insurance Company
First Unum Life Insurance Company
Unum Life Insurance Company of America
Provident Life and Accident Insurance Company
Provident Life and Casualty Insurance Company
