WHY YOU NEED A

Disability Claims Lawyer

Relieve Financial Stress

If you are suffering from an illness or injury causing disability and are in financial need, you are able to apply for disability benefits to help you and your family with the cost of living. Depending on your current housing costs and the number of people in your family, the amount of benefits you receive will vary.

Help Navigate Legal Process

In order to make it as easy as possible, your lawyer works with you to ensure you understand everything that’s involved with your claim. In order to qualify for benefits, you must meet both financial and medical requirements.

Build a Winning Case

Our lawyers are experienced at proving that you qualify by supplying the proper documentation and evidence. This will help you to secure benefits and care, while avoiding costly and lengthy denials. If you’ve already been denied, we are also experienced in the appeals process and we’re ready to help you get the benefits you need and deserve.

Why You Need a Disability Lawyer

Trying to handle a disability claim in the Toronto area on your own is difficult. Insurance companies are experienced in denying claims. You may find numerous roadblocks and denials. Insurance companies routinely deny claims when people do not have a reputable lawyer. They do this in the hope that people simply walk away without the disability benefits that they rightly deserve. Never allow the insurance company to get the upper hand. You need to have the expertise and testing experience that only a highly experienced disability lawyer in Ontario can bring to your situation. Speak with Himelfarb Proszanski, an experienced disability lawyer in Toronto for your free consultation. Once hired he will analyze your case quickly, obtain the appropriate medical documentation required, and issue legal proceedings to get your case settled.

How We Work With You

People are often rejected by disability insurance companies. They are then given an opportunity to appeal the denial. This is a strategy that the insurance company employs to further delay the payment of benefits. Some appeals go on for years only to come to the conclusion that the insurance company is not prepared to pay benefits. It is our experience that most appeals are meaningless. It is imperative that once you are denied you must see a Disability Lawyer to review your denial and the reasons behind it. Your Disability Lawyer knows how to overwhelm insurance companies and reverse their denial.

Insurance companies will not take you seriously until you retain a reputable Toronto-area disability lawyer with a proven track record of success – like Himelfarb Proszanski with a 97.5% success rate with disability claims. That’s the HimPro Advantage™.

How it Works

We have numerous Toronto-area experts we employ to provide opinions enhancing your case against the insurance companies. Our experience is that we settle cases shortly after filing the lawsuit. Insurance companies simply do not want to fight us. In most cases, we are able to settle the disability claim before examination for discovery and sometimes within a month of the denial.

We also adopt strategies to ensure our clients do not lose their homes or get evicted from their apartments by advancing motions before a judge to ensure the continuation of the payment of disability benefits pending the trial. This is called an injunction and we have a long success record in securing benefits for clients while awaiting trial despite the insurance company’s denial of claim.

Many disability policies require claimants to apply for Canada Pension Plan (CPP) disability benefits. Most disability plans deduct from the disability benefit any amount you are entitled to receive from Canada Pension Plan (CPP) Disability. We are experienced in helping our clients apply for and secure Canada Pension Plan (CPP) disability benefits, as well as CPP disability appeals. We are also well versed and experienced in the new appeals process at the Social Benefits Tribunal.

DEPTH OF OUR

Disability Claim Services in Toronto

Your Disability Lawyer ensures you receive short term and long term disability benefits as well as Canada Pension Plan disability benefits, in a fast, efficient manner. If you’ve been denied disability benefits, we’re here to help. We understand that being denied benefits is stressful for you and your family. We also know paperwork and application processes can be extremely overwhelming and discouraging.

Disability claims can be extremely difficult to substantiate and Long Term Disability Claims (LTD) are the most onerous. Like Short-Term Disability Insurance, Long-Term Disability insurance is designed to provide replacement income but for a much longer or indefinite amount of time. The problem lies in exactly what constitutes “total disability”.

Applications for CPP benefits are routinely denied to keep you from getting the benefits you deserve. Our expert lawyers ensure that all of your documentation is filled out correctly and filed on time so that you can begin receiving your benefits as soon as possible.

My mom was involved in an accident impacting her daily life and ability to work. Dan Holland has worked with us during the duration of our case and has been helpful in fighting for her and supporting us, and organizing the things we needed. Our family is incredibly grateful of the outcome Dan was able to obtain for us. I would highly recommend him!

We are so happy that we had David and his team represent us. We couldn't have asked for a better team. Not only is David incredibly skilled and experienced, he is kind and compassionate and it is clear how much he cares for his clients. Megan was also absolutely amazing to work with and was always on top of everything and there to answer any questions we had! Thank you!

I'm so happy I chose David as my lawyer. I spoke to a few lawyers before finding David and I noticed majority of them spoke to me in a way that felt demeaning or that my case wasn't big enough or important enough to take. One phone call with David and my opinion on lawyers changed. He spoke to me as an equal and made me feel as if my case was definitely important and that I deserved to be fairly compensated. The whole process was wonderful. From dealing with David's law clerk Ingrid whom is an amazing and kind woman to his legal assistant Melissa whom is another amazing kind and talented young woman. I was so stressed about this case but from day 1 they helped ease that stress and always answered all my questions promptly and respectfully. I couldn't believe David got me to mediation within 6 months of being cut off my LTD and got me a settlement way beyond my expectations. I can't say enough good things about this law firm but I guarantee you that if you need a lawyer to fight for you David is your guy! . Believe me when I say this is the law firm for anyone dealing with personal injuries especially LTD denial claims. Thank you so much to David, Ingrid and Melissa you truly don't know how much I appreciate all you did for me and how this will help me get back on track with my life. Keep helping others you guys are doing amazing work! I wish you all the best!

I sustained a relatively painful injury, affecting me long term.I wouldn't otherwise had pursued it, as it involved a relatively large corporation, but felt it necessary to do so. However, many lawyers were daunted, with one, who actually referred me to HIMPRO.I was connected with Dan Holland, who reviewed the case, provided with me realistic expectations, sound advice and had a willingness to move forward and represent me.His calm and professional demeanor, brought me to a place of reassurance. His ease in addressing all facets of this process, clearly demonstrated a wealth of experience. There was never any hesitation, when being challenged, and felt my best interest was always in the forefront.This case has since been resolved, to my complete satisfaction.Without reservation, HIMPRO (and Dan Holland, in particular), would be the only firm I would recommend for these type of cases.
