In 2011, Mitch Murphy of Nova Scotia suffered a traumatic brain injury and spinal fracture that left him paralyzed from the waist down.

To make matters worse, Mitch's insurance provider decided that he wasn't quite paralyzed enough for compensation.

Disability lawyer Sivan Tumarkin, partner at Samfiru Tumarkin LLP, discussed with host Tasha Kheiriddin on Global News Radio 640 Toronto the unusual lawsuit that seeks to have Mr. Murphy recognized as a paraplegic.

Sandra's husband still suffers from multiple health problems following a concussion. After two years, his insurance provider has indicated that they will be cutting him off from his long term disability payments.

He has the option to appeal his provider's decision, but disability lawyer Sivan Tumarkin advises against it.
