SSQ Financial Denies LTD Claim of Administrative Assistant
SSQ Financial Denies LTD Claim of Administrative Assistant

If you are an administrative assistant or other office type employee and are covered under the SSQ Financial Group and your claim for long term disability benefits has been denied, below are some helpful tips.

Here a few things that you might find helpful:

  • The fact that your claim has been denied does not mean that you should not pursue your claim
  • Share Lawyers has taken on many of these claims and succeeded in recovering fair settlements of these claims


SSQ Financial Handles Disability Claims In Multiple Provinces

SSQ oversees the handling of disability claims for administrative assistants throughout multiple provinces. We have seen many claims over the years denied for different reasons including:

  • They are not satisfied with the medical evidence and do not believe it provides sufficient proof of a disabling medical condition
  • They state that you are not receiving appropriate medical treatment or care
  • After you have received LTD benefits for a period of time (usually around 24 months), the definition of disability changes and they believe you can work in “any occupation"
  • They say they have information that suggests that you are not as disabled as you and your doctors have told them.


If you know you aren’t well enough to work and your doctors are supportive in you staying off work, you should not give up. You should contact Share Lawyers so that we can assess your chances of successfully challenging SSQ’s decision to deny your claim.

In most cases we are able to arrange a settlement meeting or mediation so that a fair settlement of your claim can be reached.
