“Leanne was thorough, knowledgeable, and took the time to provide me with the necessary direction and suggestions to have denied short-term disability into an approved disability. She was always available, and without pressure, to take the time to answer my many questions in a friendly and unhurried approach, I highly recommend Leanne for providing direction and representation in your disability insurance policy denials or similar needs. “

“If you have been wrongfully denied disability benefits, look no further than Leanne Goldstein.  She was a blessing to me in so many ways.  She showed me great compassion and understanding from our first conversation.  Her experience, knowledge, tenacity, empathy and conviction sets her apart from her peers.  She gets results!  I highly recommend Leanne.”

“Leanne Goldstein was my lawyer. Leanne is a top-notch lawyer who kept me apprised of all the developments and options as the case progressed. Leanne is not afraid to fight for you but does not come off as being rude or aggressive. She is assertive, knowledgeable and professional and will leave no stone unturned in building your case. But, more than her acumen as an attorney, she is a lovely and genuine person who navigated me with compassion and caring through a VERY stressful period in my life. Her assistant is also great and very proficient. My claim was settled for a satisfactory amount but Leanne fought hard for it and didn’t give up.”

“If you are reading this review, it means you are where I was over a year ago. I was trying to decide if I should act on my feelings of the injustice I was feeling as a result of repeatedly denied claims and appeals from my insurance company, in spite of the fact that my condition was very well documented. I worked very hard to bring myself back to improved wellness, and as I started feeling better I found the strength to seek out help. I made an appointment with Leanne Goldstein, and I walked out of that office knowing I was finally understood and very importantly supported and believed. The support and understanding continued every step of the way, and I truly have no words that can express the gratitude I have for Leanne and her hard work. The positive outcome not only helped with the financial burden of being off work for an extended period, but most importantly, it also affirmed what I knew to be true, that I was wrongly denied my LTD benefits and treated unfairly to say the least. Out of this experience, I encourage anyone who is living through wrongly denied insurance claims, to at least investigate your options, if not seek out the help and action like I did. Validation is also good for your health, and I have nothing but the utmost respect for the work Leanne did for me, and what she continues to do for others.”

Last April, my wife was abruptly notified by her insurance company, that she would no longer be receiving her Long Term Disability payments, effective immediately. This came as quite a shock, as she had been receiving the payments for approx. 10 years. Her doctors had always filled out any forms requested by the insurance company, which affirmed that she was not able to work, in any capacity. My wife was devastated, as this would cause quite a financial hardship. She was confused about the sudden decision, embarrassed and let down by the insurance company, and felt she had no power to appeal in anyway.
I felt angry and felt we should fight this unjust decision. I did a few online searches for lawyers that would help us fight a large Insurance company. I gave Leanne Goldstein a call and was immediately given clear and concise information on how to go forward.
If this type of scenario is your situation, I would highly recommend you call Leanne Goldstein. Do not let the large Insurance companies intimidate you and make you feel the way my wife did. You have the ability to fight. Leanne Goldstein strongly and competently represented our case. We did not have to deal with the Insurance company directly, at all.
Leanne Goldstein did everything she outlined in our initial conversation and more. She is both direct and compassionate. We are so grateful to have found her.
Our case was settled, out of court, within a year. We are more than satisfied with the results.
Thank you Leanne!

“Nothing’s worse than being mentally and physically unable to work and then not being supported properly or respectfully by your employer and the insurance company. Leanne gave me back my life and helped me fight back against my employer of 26 years and the life insurance company which I paid into for 26 years. She battled these two large corporations on my behalf and was victorious. I owe her my sanity. She stood by me and gave me the confidence and courage to fight for my rights. She was professional, knowledgeable, personable, empathetic and at the same time was not judgemental. She was completely supportive and always made herself available to both me and my family. She’s the lawyer you want by your side from beginning to the end result in mediation because she never gives up or settles for anything other than what’s right for the client. I highly recommend Leanne Goldstein. She’s an exceptional lawyer and an exceptional person.”

“I usually don’t write reviews unless I’m very satisfied. I would like to commend Leanne Goldstein for all the hard work she did on my case. She went above and beyond to get the best possible outcome for me.I would recommend her to anyone who needs someone who is strong and willing to fight for your best interests. Her negotiating skills along with her experience and compassion won me over.
When I was in need of a lawyer, I interviewed a few lawyers before I decided to retain Leanne. I felt that she was the best suited for my case based on the many years experience and her ability to make me feel comfortable with the whole process. Dealing with a stressful case when not feeling well is difficult as it is and Leanne was professional and responsive and took command of the situation. I didn’t feel out of the loop through the whole process.
In my nature, I’m very detailed oriented and asked many questions. Leanne didn’t make me feel uncomfortable about asking questions nor did she lose communication after I retained her. She answered all my questions and even when she was busy, she got back to me as soon as possible.
I can’t thank Leanne enough for dealing with a very stressful situation with kindness and patience. I asked her if I can contact her after my case -if I had any questions and she said absolutely I can. Thank you Leanne for your compassion and care and all your hard work!”

“When I was at the lowest point in my emotional well being, Leanne compassionately, without pressure, took the time to explain my rights and became my voice when I couldn’t speak. I am a professional of 20 years without any previous mental illness, who was denied long term disability for a valid claim. Leanne reassured me from the moment we first spoke, she would fight the insurance company for the unjustified denial of my claim for benefits. Leanne is true to her word. If you want an individual who believes in you, is a professional, compassionate, understanding, experienced and fights for your rights when you are not capable of making decisions, Leanne is your lawyer.”

“I recently found myself in the unfortunate situation of a denied LTD claim. I could not be happier with the representation provided by Leanne Goldstein. When listening to Leanne summarize my case to the mediator, it was apparent that she did her homework in depth and was very well prepared. Leanne is experienced, highly intelligent, thorough, and compassionate. She presented my case with integrity leading to an outcome that allows me to focus on healing. What more could you want in this situation?”

“Leanne was not only an outstanding lawyer; it was her compassion for me that set her apart from other lawyers I have dealt with. Leanne is not afraid to battle for you but always does it in a professional manner. She is confident, knowledgeable and will not comprise what she feels is owed to her client. Leanne is a lovely and genuine person who navigated me with such kindness and caring through an extremely stressful period in my life. She helped me with my LTD case and treated me with utmost respect, dignity and most of all, empathy. My claim was settled for a satisfactory amount but Leanne had to fight so hard for it and didn’t give up.”

She made this most stressful period in my life a lot more bearable, and I did not have to deal with anything except for looking after my health.

Tom Lovenjak
“For almost three years, Leanne Goldstein has been fighting for me. She invested a lot of time supporting me emotionally, guiding me practically and advocating for me tirelessly on a complicated situation. She’s done so with a unique balance of compassion and professionalism, good humour and toughness.
The result? Leanne found a solution that was, I believe, satisfactory to all. I know it was for me. But she was fully prepared (and getting me emotionally ready, too) to go to trial if that was not the case.
Bottom line: Leanne Goldstein is an excellent disability attorney, so if you need help in that area, you would be wise and well-served to take your matter to her.
Trust me, I honestly can’t say enough good things.”
Ian Holland
“This was my first time going on disability. And I had no idea how going on disability in Ontario worked. Unfortunately I had trouble with my insurance company.
As anyone else reading this might understand, long term disability and short term disability are two very different beasts and unless you already know how they work it is easy to get lossed.
That’s where Leanne Goldstein stepped in. Not only was the care diligent, and useful (Leanne successfully helped me fix my disability issues) but the service was incredibly kind and humanistic.
Honestly, if you need someone to fight for you when you are already down there is no better disability law firm in the GTA.”
Ari Nussbaum
“Should you find yourself being helped by Leanne, you will find yourself in knowledgeable hands.”
