LTD & Catastrophic Injury Claims Difficult Toronto East York Lawyer Cautions
A demand for experienced personal injury lawyers may rise according to a recent 2008 RBC Insurance report expecting an increase in Long Term Disability.
Toronto, Canada – April 27, 2018 /PressCable/ —
A recent RBC Insurance report expecting a rise in Long Term Disability in 2008 may lead to increased demand for specialized legal counsel. Attempting to claim Long Term Disability (LTD) insurance or benefits for catastrophic injury can be a frustrating and difficult process. And while possible to navigate the complex legal landscape alone, it is often beneficial to obtain the help of an experienced personal injury lawyer.
Without appropriate legal counsel, individuals can experience unnecessary complications and aggravations. In case of Long Term Disability claims, this could lead to delays, underpayments, and denials from insurance companies, which may be compounded by the strict time limits frequently found in insurance policies.
For example, additional records and documents may not be added to the file after a formal LTD insurance claims hearing. Yet, not many LTD insurance companies are known to be forthcoming with such information. As such, it is a good idea to contact an LTD insurance claims lawyer before attend a hearing. If the first claim is denied, it may be reversible, but it is often a more arduous process requiring thorough proofs of disability usually within a shorter period of time. Even successful insurance claims may be subject to change after a set period of time as a clause often found in contracts can change the definition of disability.
Similar difficulties can be experienced by victims of catastrophic injuries looking to receive insurance benefits for their medical and financial needs. Such injuries can significantly impact victims both physically and psychologically. With such radical changes taking place, the additional stress of dealing with legal procedures may further negatively impact their lives.
On his website, Toronto based personal injury lawyer Allan S. Blott states, “Treatment can become a significant part of daily living, all the while practical requirements for living continue. A victim of a catastrophic injury still has personal financial responsibilities and care for their family, all the while they are receiving medical care and treatment.”
