Serving Clients in Saint John and Across Southern New Brunswick
We understand how overwhelming it is to be unable to work due to a serious medical condition — only to have your insurance company question your credibility or deny your claim altogether. Whether your claim was denied outright, terminated too soon, or delayed without reason, you don’t have to face this alone.
At Resolute Employment & Disability Lawyers, we help people in Saint John and surrounding areas take on insurance companies and win the benefits they deserve. While we don’t have a physical office in Saint John, our New Brunswick-based legal team provides full legal representation virtually — by phone, Zoom, and secure online client portals.
We’ve helped thousands of Canadians through this exact situation — and we’re ready to help you too.
We Understand The Struggles You’re Facing
Many of our clients from Saint John come to us feeling:
- Frustrated by delays, denials, or sudden termination of benefits
- Pressured by insurance adjusters to return to work before they’re ready
- Worried about running out of money or losing their home
- Dismissed by their insurer despite medical support
- Emotionally and physically exhausted — unsure what to do next
We Get It — And We’re Here to Help
Our founding lawyer, David Brannen, understands the heartbreak of a denied disability claim — because he lived it. As a child, he watched his grandfather suffer after being denied compensation for a workplace injury. That experience shaped David’s path to becoming both an occupational therapist and later a disability lawyer.
Before becoming a lawyer, David worked as a licensed occupational therapist, giving him unmatched insight into how medical and legal issues intersect in disability law.
We’ll help you build a plan that gives you back control — and the peace of mind you deserve.

Testimonials
Real Results for Our Clients
-
After being denied LTD benefits twice, Resolute Legal helped me obtain my LTD benefits that should have been awarded initially by my group health insurance provider. They are excellent and specialized at what they do and they have experience on both sides of a disability situation. They are also national in scope, so no matter where you live in Canada, they can represent you. I could not have received my disability benefits without them. If you are in a situation where your LTD benefits have been denied by your group health insurance provider, please contact them.

I was advised by a family member to reach out to Resolute Legal and it was the best decision I made. I only wish I had made it even sooner. I’m sure that without a great lawyer standing with me I would still be waiting for LTD settlement. I can’t say enough about the staff they have working for them as well and then I had the pleasure of speaking to the owner when my case was over. Fantastic job.

We felt we were in good hands right from the start. The only thing I regret was not contacting them sooner. I strongly advised anyone needing help with their disability claim to consult with them first, they are very knowledgeable and professional, I promise you won’t be disappointed.

Undoubtedly, the most exceptional legal guidance for individuals with disabilities. I am immensely grateful for discovering their expertise. Nearly everyone has a family member with a disability or knows a friend who does. Finding tailored recommendations can be quite challenging, often coming at a high cost and yielding minimal results. Resolute in their support, they treat you as if you were part of their own family. I encourage you to visit their website and join their informative weekly Zoom sessions.

David Brannen and his staff are excellent, knowledgeable, conscientious, helpful, honest and kind to deal with. They answered all my questions honestly and promptly. Hiring a lawyer online may seem daunting, but no fear in hiring them. They won my case for CPP disability after my own two rejections, which I am truly grateful for. Top-notch firm and individuals. Thank-you so much!

Yes. Once you retain us, we take over all communication with your insurance company — so you don’t have to face them alone or worry about saying the wrong thing.
