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.

A note from our long term 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.
