Motor Vehicle Accidents
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.

Accident Benefit Claims
If you have been injured in a motor vehicle accident, even if it is your fault, you are entitled to accident benefits. We can help you get income replacement benefits, necessary therapy, housekeeping and attendant care benefits by standing up to the insurance companies before the Courts and the Financial Services Commission. We have obtained substantial home modifications and around-the-clock attendant care for our more seriously injured clients.

Product Liability
You bought a product believing that it was safe to use only to find out it was dangerous and unsafe. Products that are improperly designed, poorly manufactured or provide unsuitable instructions about assembly or use, are dangerous and can result in serious injuries. The products can be as large as a building, or an airliner, or as small as a toy, or a prescription pill. We help you determine what went wrong with the product and who is responsible for your losses.

Medical Malpractice
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 navigate these complicated cases by obtaining expert input early to avoid unnecessary protracted litigation. We can help you with surgical and birth-related injuries, inadequate consent, inappropriate or dangerous medication and wrongful death actions.

Slip and Fall Accidents
When you are on someone's property, they have a responsibility to keep the property safe. If you have fallen because of ice and snow, poor lighting, dangerous premises or hidden hazards, we can help. We know the standards that private individuals and public entities are held to and we have experts who can tell us what the person responsible for the property did wrong. Whether the fall occurred on public property, a private business, or a residence, we can help.

Insurance Claims
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 you enforce your rights and force the insurance company to live up to its obligations.

Brain and Spinal Cord Injuries
If you have suffered a brain or spinal cord injury, you know the devastating effect it has on both you and your family. We have specific expertise that can help you with catastrophic injuries. We work closely with the top medical professionals in the area of brain injuries and spinal cord injuries to ensure that you get the best possible medical care and assistance and that your family gets the support it needs. We're on your side.

Fatal Accidents
If you have lost a loved one in an accident, we know that it is emotionally devastating. Not only are you and other family members faced with the loss of care, guidance and companionship, you are often faced with the loss of income and the lost services that the deceased had provided to you. We can help your family recover all of these losses.
