Ontario’s roads can be treacherous, and thousands of people are involved in car accidents yearly. Car accidents can result in serious injury or death. Many victims don’t understand their rights or insurance policy — that’s where Rizzotto Law Firm can help.
If you have been hurt in a car accident, the first thing you will need to do is report the accident to a lawyer from Rizzotto Law Firm. Whether or not you were at fault, we will help you obtain the benefits and compensation for your losses. One of our vehicle injury lawyers will ensure that your rights are protected within the time limits permitted by law.
Ontario’s laws make it possible for a car accident victim to receive accident benefits and to sue for damages. There are two sources of benefits and compensation for the injuries and losses suffered because of a car accident. The first, the accident benefits claim, is to seek and collect accident benefits through your own automobile insurance company or from the insurance policy of any other vehicle involved in the accident. The second, the tort claim, is to sue the driver who is at fault.
The process varies from case to case. Rizzotto Law Firm tries to maximize your return, and minimize your waiting period. We will work with you to obtain the best car accident settlement we can!
The accessibility of accident benefits also varies from case to case. Your personal injury lawyer may obtain these benefits for you, regardless of who caused the car accident. Accident benefits available include:
- income replacement benefits
- non-earner benefits
- medical and rehabilitation benefits
- care giver benefits
- attendant care benefits
- housekeeping expenses
