Have a dispute with your accident benefits insurer? Start with the LAT by filing an OCF-1. Thomson Rogers’ Alice Xiao will walk you through the process.

If you have a dispute with your accident benefits insurer, which is a no-fault scheme, then you bring your dispute to the License Appeals Tribunal.

How do you start an accident benefits claim?

You would have to start an application by filling out an OCF-1 form. You would begin your accident benefits claim that way. If, along the way, there are disputes, for example, there is a treatment plan submitted that they’ve denied, then you have the right to dispute that at the LAT.

What happens once you issue a LAT application?

You will get assigned a date for a case conference. However, some steps need to be taken before a case conference. For example, you must file a case conference summary and provide productions supporting your case in this dispute. The adjudicator will try to mediate or settle this matter at the case conference.

What roadblocks may occur?

It’s possible that at the case conference, the adjudicator can dismiss your dispute entirely without setting it down for a LAT hearing or without settling in a way that benefits you.

So that’s why it would help if you had the advice of a personal injury lawyer prior to proceeding to your case conference. If you need a personal injury lawyer, you can contact us at Thomson Rogers LLP.

与您的意外伤害保险公司有争议吗?通过提交 OCF-1 到LAT 开始。 Thomson Rogers 的 Alice Xiao律师 能引导您完成整个流程。

如果您与您的事故福利保险公司(Accident Benefits Insurer)有争议, 您可以向License Appeals Tribunal (LAT)法庭提起诉讼。

您如何获得Accident Benefits事故福利报销赔偿?

如果您想要得到事故福利保险Accident Benefits, 您必须填写一张 OCF-1 表格。如果这个保险公司跟您有争议,比如您的治疗方案被保险公司拒绝,那您就可以在LAT法庭提起诉讼。

您在LAT法庭起诉后会发生什么

LAT法庭会给您安排一个电话会议(case conference),在这个电话会议之前您需要准备并提交一系列的法律文件,比如一份案例概要(case conference summary)和有关的医疗信息包括病例和家庭医生的资料。 在电话会议中,LAT法庭的评审员(adjudicator) 将会尝试和解您和保险公司的争议。

在这个过程中会遇到哪些障碍和困难?

在电话会议中,LAT法庭的评审员可能会完全拒绝并驳回您的索赔。评审员也可能会以对您不利的方式解决您对保险公司的争议。一般来讲,我们推荐您在电话会议前跟律师咨询,这样律师可以为您准备会议需要的资料和文件,给与法律建议,包括陪同您一起参加电话会议。
