- What other expenses are involved in an LTD claim?
-
Apart from legal fees, every case requires that the law firm incur certain expenses. Most expenses in an LTD claim are incurred in obtaining necessary information, including medical records, expert assessments, and reports from physicians and other healthcare providers.
Other expenses will include court filing fees, process serving fees, and mediator fees. At the conclusion of a successful claim, we will seek to recover the above-mentioned expenses, known as ‘disbursements’, from the insurer. You will be responsible for the portion of expenses that are not recoverable from the insurer. Those expenses will be charged against your settlement or judgment.
If we are unable to recover compensation for you, you will not be charged expenses.

- How much will my LTD claim cost me?
-
We will make reasonable efforts to resolve your long-term disability claim as quickly and cost-effectively as possible.
Our team of lawyers will review your long-term disability insurance policy when handling your LTD claim. We will also check your collective agreement if you are a union member.
Additionally, we will look at the insurer’s claim file. We will examine the medical evidence and other facts supporting or weakening your long-term disability claim. We will also address the legal issues that need consideration.
You usually pay fees, and applicable HST on fees, after the LTD claim ends. Whether you are required to pay fees will depend on the outcome of your claim. If you recover compensation through a settlement or judgment, a money fund will exist and legal fees will be payable out of that fund. If we are unable to recover compensation for you, no legal fees will be payable.
If you are successful with your claim, the insurance company will pay a part of your legal bill as ‘costs’, effectively reducing the amount of fees that you owe to our firm.
