Denied Long-Term Disability Benefits? Why Choosing the Right Lawyer Makes All the Difference
When you applied for long-term disability (LTD) benefits, you were likely at one of the most difficult points in your life. You expected the insurance company to support you. Instead, you received a denial letter—cold, clinical, and often full of confusing language. You are not alone. Denials are common, but they are not the end of the road.
The lawyer you choose next will have a major impact on your future. At Auger Hollingsworth, we have helped countless Ontarians challenge denied LTD claims—and win. We understand the stakes, and we know how to fight back against unfair insurance decisions.
Insurance Companies Count on You Giving Up
When an LTD claim is denied, many people feel defeated. The insurance company is hoping for that. They want you to walk away, overwhelmed by the system and unsure of your rights. That’s why it’s critical to contact a knowledgeable, determined injury lawyer as soon as you receive your denial.
But not just any lawyer will do. You need a team with specific experience in disability law, who understands the policies, the appeals process, and the litigation landscape. You also need a lawyer who knows how insurance companies operate—and how to hold them accountable.

What to Look for in an LTD Lawyer
Some firms take a high-volume approach and may not give your case the attention it needs. Others focus solely on personal injury cases, with little experience in disability insurance law.
At Auger Hollingsworth, we handle both personal injury and disability denial cases. We understand the intersection between injury, illness, and financial hardship. Our team has the resources to gather detailed medical evidence, obtain expert reports, and push back against flawed insurance assessments.
We also pride ourselves on communication. From the first consultation to the final resolution, we will keep you informed, answer your questions, and ensure that you never feel left in the dark.
A Denial Isn’t the End—It’s a Turning Point
Most LTD denials are not final. Many are based on incomplete medical information, vague definitions of disability, or internal “paper reviews” by insurance-paid doctors. We know how to challenge these tactics, request policy documents, and build a case that reflects the true impact your condition has on your ability to work.
And because we prepare every case as though it could go to court, the insurance company knows we are serious.
