Injured in an Accident?

Ontario Personal Injury Lawyers

Q: How Long Do I Have to Pursue Compensation?

You generally have up to two years from the date of the crash to start a lawsuit, but some benefits and notices have much shorter deadlines. It's best to speak with an injury lawyer as soon as you can so you don’t miss any deadlines.

Q: What Is the Average Car Accident Settlement Amount?

There is no true average because every case is different . In general, settlements can be near $100,000 and even over $1,000,000 in serious cases, with key factors including the severity of your injuries and how much income you have lost or will lose.

Frequently Asked Questions

How Much Does an Injury Lawyer Cost?

Most injury lawyers in Ontario, including us, don’t charge upfront. We’re paid a percentage of the settlement or court award, and if you don’t receive compensation, you generally don’t pay legal fees.

How Do I Know if I Have a Case?

It depends on how the accident happened, who was at fault, and how your injuries affect your life and work. Fill out our 60 second online case review and our team will review and let you know your options regardless of if we can help.

What if I Just Have Car Damages?

If you only have vehicle damage and no injuries, your claim is usually handled through your auto insurer, not a personal injury claim. We mainly help when you’ve been physically injured.

What if I Was Partially at-fault?

You may still have a case. In Ontario, your compensation may be reduced by your share of fault, but being partly at fault doesn’t automatically stop you from making a claim.

What if My Injuries Aren’t Severe?

You might still have a claim if your injuries affect your work or daily activities, even if they seem “minor.” Many of our clients thought they had a minor injury, and were able to receive compensation. A lawyer can help you understand whether it’s worth pursuing.

Should I Accept the Insurance Offer?

Not before you understand your rights and the full impact of your injuries. It’s usually best to speak with an injury lawyer first to see if the offer is fair.

How Long Do I Have to Pursue Compensation?

You generally have up to two years from the date of the crash to start a lawsuit, but some benefits and notices have much shorter deadlines. It’s best to speak with an injury lawyer as soon as you can so you don’t miss any deadlines.

What Is the Average Car Accident Settlement Amount?

There is no true average because every case is different. In general, settlements can be near $100,000 and even over $1,000,000 in serious cases, with key factors including the severity of your injuries and how much income you have lost or will lose.

Will I Financially Harm The Other Person By Making A Claim?

Your claim is made against the other driver’s insurance policy, not their personal bank account, and the insurer is the one that pays any settlement or award up to the policy limits. The main impact on them is usually through their insurance, not direct out-of-pocket expenses.
