Our personal injury team has extensive experience in all aspects of personal injury claims involving car accidents, slip and fall accidents, and Long Term Disability claims.
Car accident claims:
A tort claim involving a car accident is complicated under the Insurance Act. The plaintiff is required to overcome a deductible of $30,000.00 against general damages ($15,000.00 for FLA claims). In addition, the onus is on the plaintiff to show that his/her injuries will meet or exceed the defined threshold of a permanent and serious impairment of an important physical, psychological or emotional function. The level of proof required is detailed, extensive and requires medical experts.
A car accident claim is further complicated by the Accident Benefits scheme that provides an injured person with insurer approved medical, rehabilitation and income benefits. The Accident Benefit scheme also provides a detailed dispute resolution mechanism.
