Diakiw Law can help with most denials and terminations. If you have been given any of the following reasons for your benefits being denied, don't hesitate to get in touch with our office.

  • Not meeting the definition of disability

  • The definition of disability has changed

  • Not having a diagnosis

  • Having a diagnosis that is not considered severe

  • The disability is pre-existing

  • Improper medical treatment

  • Non-continuous medical treatment

  • Not cooperating with insurer-mandated rehabilitation

  • Not attending medical assessments

  • Not returning to work or participating in a graduated return to work

While in certain circumstances, any or all of the above can be justifiable reasons for termination, it is important to have a qualified lawyer review your file and advise you accordingly.
