Experienced Lawyers for Anxiety Disability Claims


​If you’re facing a denial of disability benefits for anxiety, you are not alone. Insurance companies regularly deny claims for invisible conditions like anxiety, often questioning the severity of symptoms, insisting on more documentation, or claiming you should still be able to work.

We know how devastating it is to receive a denial letter, especially while coping with the daily impact of anxiety as a disability. Share Lawyers has represented thousands of Canadians whose mental health kept them from work, including claims involving Generalized Anxiety Disorder, panic disorder, PTSD, phobias, and obsessive-compulsive disorder. We understand the medical and legal complexities of anxiety, and will work with your healthcare providers to build the strongest possible case for you.

If your anxiety disability claim has been denied, you don’t have to settle for “no.” The Share Lawyers team is here to fight for your right to disability benefits for anxiety. We have decades of experience holding insurance companies accountable for denying or terminating employer-based or private long term disability anxiety claims. Don’t give up—read below to learn how a disability lawyer for anxiety can help you get the benefits you deserve, and what steps you can take now to protect your future.

Anxiety Disability Claim Denied in Canada?


Long term disability benefits provide crucial financial support for individuals who can no longer perform the essential duties of their job due to a serious condition such as anxiety or other mental health disorders. However, obtaining these benefits can be far from simple.

Why Are Anxiety LTD Claims Denied?

Insurance companies deny anxiety-related disability claims for various reasons, including but not limited to:

  • Insufficient Medical Evidence: Claims are often denied when insurers believe the medical documentation doesn’t clearly demonstrate how anxiety prevents you from working.

  • Disputed Severity: Insurers may argue that your anxiety symptoms are not severe enough to limit your ability to work or that treatment should allow you to continue.

  • Pre-Existing Conditions: Insurance companies sometimes assert that your anxiety stems from a pre-existing mental health condition not covered under your policy.

  • Change of Definition: Insurers may change the definition of disability in the policy terms, making it harder to qualify for benefits as time goes on.

These tactics allow insurers to reduce payouts and delay rightful claims. Denying disability benefits to those struggling with anxiety is unjust and leaves individuals without crucial financial and emotional support during a vulnerable time.

Let’s fight back together. While you can challenge a denial on your own, it’s often an uphill battle. Working with experienced disability lawyers increases your chances of approval, so you can focus on what matters most — your health and well-being.
