How to Choose a Lawyer when Denied Long Term Disability Benefits

Not that long ago, people with denied disability insurance claims had very few options in terms of finding legal representation. The large majority of disability lawyers required up-front payment when taking on cases for disability claims and there were no assurances regarding the outcome of the case or how much it would cost - win or lose.

These days, there are many more disability lawyers and disability law firms prepared to take on your case, with no fees for you to pay unless your disability claim is recovered for you. This change is overall a net positive - people living with disabilities have much easier access to a disability lawyer for legal representation against their insurance company. But what's the best way to find the right kind of disability lawyer for what they need?

In this video, our client Evelyn and her husband describe the experience of speaking to the disability lawyers at Share Lawyers two years before she stopped work to apply for disability benefits. Our team's kindness and approachability made Evelyn feel at ease and had a lasting impression.

Here are some guidelines to help you choose a lawyer to secure your long term disability claim:

  • How much experience does the law firm have in handling disability claims?
  • Does the law firm handle other types of legal matters?
  • Do any of the lawyers have experience working at tdisability insurance companies?
  • Is the law firm respected within the disability insurance field?
  • Do former clients provide positive feedback about the experiences they had with that firm?

If your disability insurance claim has been denied, I invite you to thoroughly review our website and our other online content to prove that we meet all of the above points.

A note from our disability lawyers

Taking a medical leave from work is not an easy decision to make. Concerns about providing for yourself and your family and keeping your job may cause you to want to push through your pain, but this won’t make your problems go away. Stopping work is often the smartest decision for your long term health and well-being, and your disability benefits are there to provide you with financial support until you can return to work.

If you have made the tough decision to stop working and apply for your short term disability or long term disability benefits, you may feel overwhelmed by the process and have questions that your employer and your insurance company are not able or willing to answer. Share is There to see you through and answer your questions.

Our disability law firm knows what you have been going through

We understand that things have not been easy for you over the last little while. Your health has been suffering, you are unable to work, and now your insurance company, who was supposed to be there in your time of need, has decided they will not pay your disability benefits or respect your disability claim. These benefits exist to provide you with the financial support you need so that you can focus on your health and rebuilding your life. It is unfortunate that your insurance company has not lived up to its promise. If your disability claim has been denied, we will fight to get you the benefits you are entitled to. Our disability lawyers have helped thousands of Canadians get their long term disability benefits over the past 35 years, and we can help you too.
