Work injury and disability benefit claims are sometimes very complex and there are appeal time limits to appeal each decision. It is important to seek legal advice and support as soon as possible after an accident or disability, even before a dispute arises. We offer a free initial consultation, so the client can determine their best course of action. Please contact us to schedule your free consultation.
Workers Compensation Advocate is a legal services firm and our main area of practice are cases related to the Workplace Safety and Insurance Board (WSIB), previously called Workers' Compensation Board (WCB). We represent the injured worker and/or the employer as their legal representative with claims management from start to finish, assist with early and safe return to work and if necessary, proceed with the case to a higher level of appeal, such as the WSIB Appeals Services Division and the Workplace Safety and Insurance Appeals Tribunal (WSIAT). Work injury examples may include sprain/strain, slip and fall, head injury, result from a motor vehicle accident (MVA), and may include chronic pain disability and depression.
Our clients are from a variety of different industries, with work injuries to clerical and office workers, auto mechanics, taper and drywall workers, construction workers, painters, electricians, general labour and forklift operators, assembly line workers, butchers, housekeeping, truck drivers and others. We have successfully represented unionized and non-unionized clients.
Since 1996, Workers Compensation Advocate paralegal, Robert Govaert, has successfully helped hundreds of injured workers and employers with their WSIB/WCB cases. We help clients with appeals and tribunals in Toronto, before the Workplace Safety and Insurance Board (WSIB), the Workplace Safety and Insurance Appeals Tribunal (WSIAT) and Canada Pension Plan disability benefit appeals before the Social Security Tribunal (SST). We have received client referrals from family doctors, chiropractors, physiotherapists, lawyers, paralegals, unions, and previous clients who were happy with the outcome of their case.
