The article covers a lawsuit against Hartford Life and Accident Insurance Co. A disabled father alleges that the company unjustly reduced his benefits because his disabled adult son receives Social Security. This case, filed in the US District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, draws attention to a provision often overlooked in disability insurance plans. The provision entails that beneficiaries’ payments get trimmed if they also benefit from Social Security. However, Eric Smith, a former LSC Communications LLC employee, argues the case is more significant than just this provision. Smith turned disabled in 2001 and started receiving benefits from both Hartford and the Social Security system. He accuses Hartford of trying to offset his disability payments with his son’s Social Security.
