You may have been told that “no-fault” means that you cannot sue the driver, or other persons responsible for a car accident. This is simply not true. You can be compensated for pain and suffering, income loss, medical and other expenses from the person responsible for your injuries.
We can help with every type of motor vehicle accidents whether it was caused by negligent or drunk drivers, unidentified drivers, or poorly maintained roads.
If you have been injured in a motor vehicle accident, you are entitled to accident benefits, even if the accident is your fault. That may be surprising, but it is a fact.
We use our expertise to help you get income replacement benefits, necessary therapy, housekeeping, attendant care benefits and any home modifications to which you may be entitled.
We do this by vigorously defending your rights against insurance companies before the Courts and the Financial Services Commission of Ontario.
We are very proud of our track record in maximizing these benefits for our clients.
Products that are improperly designed, poorly manufactured or provide insufficient instructions for assembly or use can be dangerous and can cause injury.
If you purchased a product believing that it was safe to use and discovered that it was dangerous and unsafe, you have a legal right to be compensated for any harm or losses that occur as a result.
Our lawyers work with the help of engineers and other experts. Our experts can help you determine what went wrong with the product and who is responsible for your injuries.
Injuries caused by doctors, nurses or other health care practitioners are often the most physically and psychologically devastating because you or your loved ones have been harmed by those with whom you have entrusted your health and well-being.
If you had doctors, hospitals and other health care professionals provide substandard care by failing to properly treat or diagnose your condition, advise you of treatment risks and provide appropriate care, resulting in serious injuries, you need somewhere to turn.
We can help you and your family through these often complicated cases by obtaining appropriate medical experts to analyze what happened to you and determine who is responsible for your injuries.
When you are on someone's property, they have a responsibility to keep the property reasonably safe. If you have fallen because of ice and snow, poor lighting, dangerous conditions or hidden hazards, we can help.
We know the standards that private individuals and public entities are held to and we have experts available to help us determine who and what is responsible for your injuries. Whether the fall occurred on public property, a private business, or a residence, we can help.
Insurance companies have a legal obligation to pay you benefits under certain circumstances.
Although you have paid your insurance premiums in good faith, insurance companies do not always honour their obligations to pay long-term disability benefits, life insurance proceeds, medical costs, fire insurance and other policies.
We will help enforce your rights and ensure that insurance companies honour their obligations.
