Helping Clients in Charlottetown and Across Prince Edward Island
Living with a serious illness or injury is hard enough. When your long-term disability claim is denied or your benefits are cut off early, it adds financial stress, emotional strain, and legal confusion — all when you should be focused on healing.
At Resolute Employment & Disability Lawyers, we help people in Charlottetown and across PEI challenge LTD denials and terminations. While we don’t have a physical office in Charlottetown, we provide full-service legal representation virtually, and our Moncton office — just across the bridge — plays a central role in serving our PEI clients.
There’s a long-standing tradition of Islanders turning to Moncton-based professionals for trusted legal help — and we’re proud to carry on that legacy with modern, compassionate, and accessible legal support.
We Understand The Struggles You’re Facing
We regularly help clients from Charlottetown who are:
- Their long-term disability claim is denied after a routine review
- They’ve been cut off after 24 months under the “any occupation” test
- Their employer is pushing them to return to work or threatening dismissal
- They’re overwhelmed by the appeals process or CPP paperwork
- They feel discouraged, unheard, and unsure of their legal rights
We Get It — And We’re Here to Help
Our founding lawyer, David Brannen, became a disability and employment lawyer after watching his own grandfather suffer through a denied claim and wrongful dismissal. A former licensed occupational therapist, David brings rare insight into the medical and legal challenges facing people with disabilities.
He lives in Atlantic Canada and leads our team in serving clients throughout the region — including Prince Edward Island, supported by our head office in Moncton.

Testimonials
What our Clients Say
-
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.
Stephane Duguay
-
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!
