Each year approximately 2,500 people die and 200,000 people are injured in Canadian motor vehicle traffic collisions. Victims of car accidents, motorcycle accidents and truck accidents often suffer physical, emotional and financial injuries. Toronto personal injury lawyers represent the injured victims and the survivors of those who were killed in motor vehicle accidents.
At your initial meeting, your lawyer will review the facts of the case and advise you about the likelihood of collecting damages if you bring a case against the at fault driver. A car, motorcycle or truck driver who fails to act like a reasonable driver would have acted given the circumstances at the time of your accident and whose actions resulted in damages may be liable for negligence. If the driver is found to have been negligent then you may be entitled to damages for lost income and out of pocket expenses. If your injuries from the accident include permanent disfigurement, the loss of an important physical or mental function or if you have suffered the loss of a loved one then you may also be entitled to damages for pain and suffering.
