Legal Help for Disability Claims in Summerside and Across PEI
When you’re living with a serious medical condition that prevents you from working, long-term disability benefits should be there to support you. But insurance companies often deny claims, cut benefits off too soon, or create impossible obstacles. And if your job is at risk too, the stress can become overwhelming.
At Resolute Employment & Disability Lawyers, we help people in Summerside and across Prince Edward Island get justice after disability claim denials. Although we don’t have a physical office in Summerside, we serve clients virtually, supported by our nearby Moncton office — a trusted legal hub for Islanders for decades.
We’ve built our practice around helping people like you navigate complex disability and employment law situations with confidence and compassion.
We Understand The Struggles You’re Facing
We regularly help clients from Summerside who are:
- Blindsided by an LTD denial or termination letter
- Unsure how to file a proper appeal or where to start
- Pressured by an employer to return to work too soon
- Confused by how CPP Disability, LTD, and severance rules interact
- Anxious about finances, their health, and their future
We Get It — And We’re Here to Help
Our founding lawyer, David Brannen, has lived through a family member’s wrongful dismissal and disability claim denial. That experience led him to become both a licensed occupational therapist and a disability and employment lawyer.
David lives in Atlantic Canada and leads our team in serving PEI clients — with the support of our head office in Moncton, which has long served Islanders seeking trusted legal help.

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!
