When you’re dealing with the Workers’ Compensation Board (WCB) in Alberta, you want one thing — results.
If you’ve been denied, underpaid, or pressured to return to work before you’re ready, it’s natural to start searching for a WCB lawyer in Calgary. But here’s the truth:
Most WCB disputes never need a lawyer.
WCB decisions are handled through internal reviews and appeals, not the court system. That means the real battle is fought inside WCB using policy, medical evidence, and persistence.
A WCB lawyer can help in very specific, legal situations but those are rare. Most cases never reach court.
Here’s where lawyers usually get involved:
Judicial reviews (appealing WCB decisions in court)
Employer negligence claims outside WCB coverage
Complex litigation involving third-party liability
If your issue hasn’t gone that far, hiring a lawyer too soon can cost you thousands and slow your claim down.
If you’ve been searching “WCB lawyer Calgary”, what you really need is someone who knows:
The WCB Alberta Policy

How to prepare effective appeal submissions
