The Licence Appeal Tribunal (LAT) decides disputes between people injured in car accidents and their auto insurers over statutory accident benefits, and hears appeals of certain provincial licensing decisions. Merisca Legal Services is a licensed paralegal firm in Thornhill that represents clients at the LAT across Ontario. If your insurer has denied or cut off your benefits, contact us as soon as you receive the denial letter: strict time limits apply.
