If you’ve been injured at work or developed a work-related illness, you may be eligible for benefits through Ontario’s Workplace Safety and Insurance Board (WSIB). However, many workers find the claims process confusing, and initial applications are often denied. At Trial lawyer Tim Leigh-Bell, we provide skilled legal representation for WSIB claims and appeals to help injured workers secure the compensation and support they deserve.
Understanding WSIB Claims
The WSIB provides coverage for employees who are injured or become ill due to their job. Benefits may include:
- Loss of earnings compensation
- Medical and rehabilitation expenses
- Return-to-work assistance
- Non-economic loss benefits for permanent impairments
While the program is designed to protect workers, filing a claim or appeal without legal support can be overwhelming, especially when recovering from an injury.
Common Challenges in WSIB Cases
- Denial of claims due to insufficient medical evidence
- Disputes over whether the injury is work-related
- Reduced or terminated benefits
- Delays in medical treatment approvals
- Lack of communication or transparency from WSIB
