Do You Qualify for Disability Benefits?
If a medical condition or injury prevents you from doing your job, you may be eligible for benefits through:
- Short-term disability (STD) coverage from an employer plan
- Long-term disability (LTD) benefits under a group or private policy
- CPP Disability for eligible applicants who meet the federal government’s criteria
Even when your doctor confirms you can’t work, insurers often deny legitimate claims, citing vague or unfair reasons. That’s where we come in.
MEDICAL CONDITIONS THAT QUALIFY
⛔ We do not handle WCB or Assured Income for the Severely Handicapped (AISH) claims or denials.
Common Reasons Claims Are Denied
Insurance companies often deny legitimate claims using vague or unfair justifications. Here are some of the most common reasons our clients in Beaumont hear:
They claim you can still work in some capacity, even if your doctor disagrees.
They argue your medical file doesn’t prove you can’t work.
Minor paperwork issues are used to justify a full denial.
They say you didn’t follow your doctor’s treatment recommendations.
Photos or video clips are taken out of context to “prove” you’re not disabled.
The insurer’s doctor reviews your file and disagrees – without ever seeing you.
🚨 Don’t Appeal! Before you file an appeal with your insurance company, speak to us. Most internal appeals fail – and they can delay your right to pursue legal action. Learn more: Why you shouldn’t file an appeal without legal advice.
Taking on Beaumont’s Largest Insurers – Your David vs. Goliath Moment
When you’re denied disability benefits, it can feel like you’re up against a massive, unmovable system. But you’re not alone.
At Samfiru Tumarkin LLP, we’ve successfully challenged the biggest insurance companies in Beaumont – and across Canada – on behalf of our clients. We know how these companies operate, the tactics they use, and what it takes to turn a denial into approval.
Our disability lawyers for Beaumont have gone up against:
How much do disability lawyers charge in Beaumont?
We work on a contingency fee basis—meaning you don’t pay anything upfront. Our fees only apply if we successfully recover compensation for you.
Can I apply for both short-term and long-term disability?
Yes. Most disability plans start with short-term disability (STD) benefits. If your condition lasts longer than a few months, you may transition to long-term disability (LTD) – though you’ll need to meet specific medical and policy criteria. Learn more about the difference between STD and LTD.
Can I be fired while on disability leave in Beaumont?
You can’t be fired because you’re on disability leave. However, your employer may terminate your employment for unrelated reasons, such as restructuring. If this happens, you may be entitled to severance pay – as much as 24 months’ pay – and additional human rights compensation.
What if my benefits are cut off after 2 years?
Most LTD policies shift their definition of disability at the two-year mark—requiring you to prove you can’t work in any occupation, not just your own. If your benefits were cut off at this stage, it is still possible to challenge the decision and get proper compensation.
How long do LTD benefits last in Beaumont?
If your claim is approved and your condition remains disabling, LTD benefits can last up to age 65 under most policies in Beaumont. Read more about this in our Long-term Disability Claims in Alberta Guide.
Do I need a lawyer before appealing my denied disability claim?
Yes. While it may seem easier to appeal directly through your insurer, most internal appeals fail – and can use up the limited time you have to file a legal claim. It’s best to speak with a disability lawyer at Samfiru Tumarkin LLP first to protect your rights.
