As a highly experienced personal injury and disability insurance lawyer, Rob Deutschmann and his legal team is dedicated to assisting those who have had their disability benefits wrongly denied by the disability insurer. His team has successfully protected the rights of injured people in Ontario for over 20 years, and has a proven track record recovering fair settlements.

Our client was involved in a motor vehicle and suffered injuries. Our client worked as an assembly line worker in a factory. Our client had some history of back and neck pain prior to the car accident. The client applied for and received short term and then long term disability benefits. While receiving long term disability benefits, the client started a claim against the at fault driver in the motor vehicle accident. The client developed chronic pain and continued to be disabled from working at the factory. The disability insurer terminated our client’s disability benefits after two years as the disability insurer felt that the client could work at some other occupation. As a result of the denial we started a claim against the disability insurer for wrongly terminating our client’s disability benefits. We arranged for medical reports from our clients treating physicians and from medical experts to assist us in both the motor vehicle claim and the disability insurance claim. As the litigation process was progressing, we were able to arrange for a global mediation that included both insurers in the motor vehicle claim and the disability claim. With the assistance of the mediator, we were able to arrive at a resolution that was in our client’s best interest, provided for his long term needs and avoided the uncertainty of litigation.
