Section 275(8) requires the notice to be accompanied by the documents supporting the claim, including hospital and medical reports other than reports obtained by or for the insurer, income tax returns, group certificates and other documents for the three years immediately before the injury, documents for out-of-pocket expenses, and, other than for a worker with a terminal condition or a dependant, the notice of assessment. Section 275(5) requires any statement in the claimant's personal knowledge to be verified by statutory declaration. Section 275(6) requires a genuine offer or the reasons an offer cannot yet be made. The declaration and the offer are written by the lawyer. This list is of the documents only.
