INJURED WORKERS COMMUNITY LEGAL CLINIC
The Injured Workers Community Legal Clinic provides free legal assistance to workers in Toronto who have suffered workplace injuries and are navigating the workers' compensation system. The clinic offers advice on filing claims, appeals, and resolving disputes with the Workplace Safety and Insurance Board, helping injured workers understand their rights and access the benefits they are entitled to. Staff lawyers and paralegals work with clients to challenge denied claims, negotiate settlements, and represent workers at hearings. The clinic also conducts outreach and education to help injured workers understand the workers' compensation process from the start. For workers facing financial hardship after injury and unable to afford legal representation, the clinic removes barriers to getting qualified help so they can focus on recovery and fair compensation.
