Helping Clients in Winnipeg and Across Manitoba
When you’re unable to work because of illness or injury, long-term disability benefits are supposed to be there to support you. But too often, people in Manitoba face unfair denials, delayed decisions, or sudden termination of benefits — all while struggling with their health and uncertain futures.
At Resolute Employment & Disability Lawyers, we represent clients in Winnipeg and across Manitoba with long-term disability insurance claims, as well as related CPP Disability and employment law matters. We offer 100% virtual legal services via phone, Zoom, and secure online tools — so you can get expert help from the comfort of your home.
We Understand The Struggles You’re Facing
We regularly help clients from Winnipeg who are:
- Their LTD benefits have been denied without proper explanation
- They’re being cut off after 24 months under the “any occupation” test
- Their employer is demanding a return to work or threatening dismissal
- They’re confused by how CPP Disability affects their LTD claim
- They’re afraid they’ll run out of money before getting answers
We Get It — And We’re Here to Help
Our founding lawyer, David Brannen, became a lawyer after watching a family member be denied disability benefits and wrongfully terminated. A former occupational therapist, David understands not just the legal side — but the personal and medical challenges of being unable to work.
He leads our legal team serving clients across Manitoba, offering a compassionate, practical, and results-driven approach.

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!
