Spinal Cord injury

The spinal cord serves a central purpose to our bodies, affecting our movements, nerves and more.

Navigating Life After an Accident

Whether it’s physical recovery, emotional healing, or adjusting to new realities and getting back to your old life, you must remember to hire experts in their field as part of your rehabilitation.

We believe our job is a profession, not a business. This means that the cost benefit analysis should be done by the client in weighing risks, not the lawyer in weighing expense versus profit. We invest heavily in top-notch experts to learn then prove the truth. We believe the advice of a lawyer who doesn’t take cases to trial is as useless as a surgeon who doesn’t perform surgery.

Trial Report Card
The Measure of a Lawyer

The Proof is in the Precedents​

Knowing the importance of trial experience, many personal injury lawyers imply that they have it when they don’t. They may state that they “appear” at various court levels, but that doesn’t mean they went to trial. They may say they “fight” or that they are “tough,” but if they have never gone to trial for their clients in the past, what exactly did they fight, and just how tough are they?

Successful trial verdicts are the only objective measure of a personal injury lawyer’s judgment, confidence, commitment, and ability. Settlements can’t give you that insight: they don’t tell you how much the lawyer compromised the injured person’s claim. Settlements don’t tell you who was in control of the negotiations, and on their own, they don’t tell you if a lawyer stands their ground.

A lawyer’s trial record is an essential factor in keeping cases out of court. It informs insurers that their risk of going to trial is real and discourages discounted offers. Trial experience guides the development and presentation of the case and hones a lawyer’s ability to predict outcomes. A lawyer with a strong trial record will increase the value of your claim and improve the prospect of a fair settlement without having to go to trial.

We believe in backing up what we say. The symbol of our firm is the symbol of evidence. Your future will be decided based on evidence. We believe deciding who represents you should be as well.

Frequently Asked Questions

How can a personal injury lawyer help me?
An accident can lead to lifelong consequences for those involved. If you’ve suffered serious injuries due to someone else’s negligence, you may feel overwhelmed by emotional trauma, medical bills, securing treatment, and navigating insurance claims. Additionally, you likely want to regain the position you were in before the accident. This is why hiring a personal injury lawyer is essential—they can guide you through the process and help protect your rights.
  • Do you, personally, regularly take cases to trial?
  • Have you, personally, won cases like mine at trial?
  • Do you, personally, have precedent-setting decisions?
  • Are they leaders in the legal community?
  • Can I see your written decisions and jury verdicts?
  • Have your peers endorsed you for your inclusion in BestLawyers. com peer review directory?
  • Have legal publications recognized your firm as a Top 10 Personal Injury Law Firm in Canada?
  • Have you published extensively in the field of personal injury?
  • Do you teach other lawyers how to conduct trials?
  • Are you invited to speak at conferences regarding trial work?
  • Are you, or have you been, a board member of the Ontario Trial Lawyers Association?

If you or a loved one has suffered a serious injury due to someone else’s negligence, you may be able to advance a claim for personal injury. The facts and circumstances of each case are unique, as well as the legal elements required to be satisfied. Consulting an experienced personal injury lawyer to discuss your case and provide advice on whether you have a case is the next step.

If your LTD claim has been denied, a disability lawyer can help by:

  • Sending your relevant medical information to your insurance company.
  • Ensuring you meet all timelines set out in your insurance policy.
  • Working with the doctors who are treating you (and other expert doctors, if necessary), to obtain the proper documentation needed to address to the specific provisions of your insurance policy. This is particularly important because often the forms sent to you by your insurance company can be very biased. Knowing what the right questions are to ask your doctor can often be the difference between having your claim approved, rather than denied.
  • Moving your case toward resolution through the settlement negotiations or, if necessary, the legal process.

Don’t speak to the adjuster from the insurance company.

When you consult with us, we will advise you as to your rights and options and we will help you understand your insurance policy and its terms. You may have different options available to you such as suing the other driver or you may be eligible for income replacement benefits and short-term disability.

we don’t require much information at our initial consultation, other than your memory of when, where, and how the accident happened; what injuries you’ve sustained and how it’s affected you.

Each personal injury case is unique, which is what constitutes the long durations until a settlement is achieved. Several factors go towards determining a fair value for your case. That includes, but is not limited to, the severity of the injury, the medication and treatment required for recovery, physical and mental therapy for further rehabilitation, compensation for pain and suffering, expenses required to maintain a living across a period when you are unable to return to regular activities, etc

The most important thing to do after an incident resulting in a personal injury is to focus on recovery. The next step is to start doing research for a personal injury lawyer that is right for you. Look for information regarding their qualifications, experience, and reputation among their peers.

Also consider these critical steps after an injury after seeking medical help.

  1. Report the Incident: Notify relevant authorities (police, workplace, property owner).
  2. Document Evidence: Take photos, gather witness info, and keep medical records.
  3. Track Expenses: Save all receipts related to medical care and other costs.
  4. Avoid Discussing the Case: Don’t post on social media or discuss details with others.
  5. Consult a Lawyer: Seek legal advice to understand your rights and options.

In most cases, you have 2 two years from the date of the incident to file a lawsuit. This is called the limitation period. If you were injured while you were a minor, you have two years from the date you turn 18 to file a lawsuit or two years from the date a litigation guardian is appointed on behalf of the minor. In certain circumstances, this general limitation period of 2 two years from the date of the incident does not apply. The period may be longer, or it may be shorter. For this reason, it is important to contact a personal injury lawyer as soon as possible to start the process of filing your lawsuit.
