What We Do

The Wood Law Firm handles civil litigation on behalf of plaintiffs, with a particular emphasis on ERISA benefit claims and insurance disputes. The firm handles claims and appeals asserted against insurance carriers before litigation, including claims for disability, accidental death, life insurance, and health care benefits. At that stage, the goal is to resolve the insurance claim successfully and avoid the need for litigation. The firm works to provide to the carrier with the proof and information necessary to increase the changes of prevailing without litigation. If litigation becomes necessary, the firm has extensive experience handling a variety of civil lawsuits in federal and states courts, including suits to recovery ERISA benefits.

In its ERISA work, John Wood has assisted disabled clients suffering from wide-ranging health conditions, such as spine-related problems, degenerative disc disease, herniated discs, chronic pain, brain damage and injuries, heart attacks and ailments, cardiovascular disease, depression, anxiety, obsessive compulsive disorder, various neurological disorders, Meniere's Disease and vestibular disorders, diabetes, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, intestinal problems, cognitive dysfunction, and many other serious conditions.

The firm's mission is to provide high-quality representation to its clients. The firm does not seek to handle the largest number of cases at a time. The firm's approach is to pursue a limited number of compelling and significant cases.
