About Christian

Christian Lassen is a nationally recognized authority on life insurance law. For over 25 years, he has handled life insurance litigation exclusively, representing policyholders and beneficiaries in all 50 states. His work has been featured in The Wall Street Journal, and he has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars in wrongfully denied claims. With more than 1,700 endorsements from other attorneys and a perfect 10.0 rating on Avvo, Mr. Lassen is one of the most trusted names in the field.

His firm focuses solely on life insurance matters, including denied death benefits, lapse and exclusion disputes, accidental death claims, beneficiary conflicts, and ERISA group policy litigation. By preparing legal briefs rather than routine letters, and sending them directly to insurance company legal departments, Mr. Lassen frequently secures fast results without the need for prolonged court battles.

Clients hire Mr. Lassen because of his depth of experience, strategic focus, and personal involvement. Every case receives his direct attention from start to finish. He does not delegate claims to junior staff or outside counsel. Whether an insurance company has delayed payment, denied coverage, or filed an interpleader, Mr. Lassen moves quickly to protect the rights of the insured and their families.

He is a lifetime member of the Million Dollar Advocates Forum and the Multi-Million Dollar Advocates Forum, a distinction held by less than one percent of attorneys nationwide. His work is driven by a singular purpose: helping grieving families get the benefits they are owed.

Questions & Answers

Please describe a case in the last year or two where you made a big difference.

A client was denied $400,000 in life insurance after her husband was found deceased with a noose in the basement. The insurer cited a suicide exclusion. I submitted a legal brief with supporting case law showing the death was accidental and recovered the full benefit.

How did you build a successful practice?

I built a successful practice by pursuing insurers relentlessly and resolving claims faster than most firms. I also provide clients with my direct cell number and frequent updates so they are informed and supported throughout the process.

What should clients look for in a lawyer?

Clients should look for a lawyer who will give their case focused, consistent attention. Many attorneys are overextended, and cases can be delayed. A lawyer who prioritizes responsiveness and follow-through makes a meaningful difference.

How important is local knowledge to the success of your cases?

In my experience, local knowledge is less important than deep subject-matter expertise. I handle cases nationwide and consistently achieve favorable outcomes by focusing exclusively on life insurance litigation and mastering the legal and procedural issues involved.

What information can you provide in a free phone consultation?

During a free phone consultation, I explain the applicable law and assess the strength of the case based on its specific facts. Clients leave the call with a clear understanding of their legal position and the next steps available to them.

What information do you need in a free phone consultation?

In a free phone consultation, I need only the basic facts surrounding the life insurance claim. From there, my team conducts a detailed investigation, and I perform a comprehensive legal analysis tailored to the specific circumstances.

What differentiates you from other lawyers in your community?

What sets me apart is constant accessibility, aggressive claim pursuit, and a client-first approach. I stay in direct contact, push insurers daily for resolution, and offer highly competitive fees to ensure clients get the maximum recovery possible.

What is the most rewarding aspect of your job?

The most rewarding aspect of my work is securing justice for clients by recovering the full benefits they are entitled to under both state and federal law, often after they have been wrongfully denied by the insurance company.

What are your other interests in addition to law?

Outside of practicing law, I enjoy horseback riding, including showjumping and polo. I am also a licensed pilot and fly regularly, which provides a unique balance to my legal work.

Are you involved in your community?

I am actively involved in charitable efforts and have helped raise tens of millions of dollars for children with cancer. Supporting meaningful causes is an important part of my commitment to giving back to the community.
