About Us

The Ontario workplace safety and insurance system strives for fairness.  For the most part the WSIB delivers. The process and decisions are usually fair.

However, the “hard case” too often falls through the cracks.  The complex or unusual case, be it worker entitlement, premium rate calculation, employer classification, or a complex employer audit, often requires expert advocacy to ensure a fair outcome.

 That’s where we help.
L.A. Liversidge LL.B. is a small law firm with over 40 years of workplace safety and insurance advocacy experience.
