Workers Compensation Advocate is a legal services firm that helps injured and disabled workers in and around Toronto, Ontario. Our primary legal services are related to claims with the Workplace Safety and Insurance Board (WSIB), previously called the Worker's Compensation Board (WCB), and Canada Pension Plan (CPP) disability benefits. Our paralegal, Robert Govaert, has over 20 years of experience representing clients at all stages of the appeal process, including oral hearings and tribunals at the Workplace Safety and Insurance Appeals Tribunal (WSIAT) and the Social Security Tribunal (SST). Work injury and disability benefit claims are sometimes very complex and there are appeal time limits to appeal each decision, so it is important to seek legal advice and support as soon as possible after an accident or disability, even before a dispute arises.

If not because of Robert Govaert, I would have given up and I would have no money and no benefits. Robert helped me win my work injury case at the Workplace Safety and Insurance Appeals Tribunal and Canada Pension Plan disability benefits. I now get monthly benefits from both. God bless you, I highly recommend your services.
