This is a very common scenario and you should absolutely take legal action. Many insurers vastly overstate what is required to qualify for disability benefits on the “any occupation” standard. This does not mean if you can rip tickets at the cineplex then you don’t qualify. There is a very nuanced assessment that takes place that takes into account your age, work experience, etc. In many cases there is no practical difference between the own occupation and any occupation standards. Don’t give up and seek advice from a lawyer experienced in disability insurance claims. We would be happy to discuss with you in private.
