If you get hurt badly in a car accident in Brampton, you need a good injury lawyer to protect your future and get you the money you need to heal. During the tough months after a serious accident, having a lawyer nearby is super helpful especially when you have to deal with frequent meetings, medical evaluations and legal proceedings while you are still healing from your injuries and dealing with ongoing pain and limitations.
Injuries from car accidents can be as minor as scrapes and bruises or as severe as conditions that will affect your life forever. We have helped clients in Brampton who were hurt in car accidents on busy streets including Main Street, McLaughlin Road and the highways that connect the city to nearby towns. These clients had broken bones, soft tissue damage, internal injuries and many other problems. To make sure insurance companies understand the full extent of your losses, each kind of injury requires different kind of medical and legal help.
Having a local lawyer has many benefits beyond just being nearby. We have professional contacts in the area who are familiar with both the medical and legal sides of personal injury cases. We have contacts with orthopedic surgeons, neurologists, physical therapists, physical medicine and other professionals in the area who are familiar with both the medical and legal aspects of personal injury cases.
After a car accident everything can feel crazy and out of control especially if someone is hurt badly and needs emergency medical attention. Before you even have time to fully realize how bad you are, police officers are asking questions, insurance adjusters are starting their investigation and medical bills are piling up. During this chaotic time it’s very important to have a lawyer who has been through the system before to protect your rights and make sure important evidence is kept for your case.
Insurance companies hire experts whose job is to keep claim payments to injured accident victims as low as possible. They can say your injuries aren’t that bad, you don’t need the treatments recommended, or your pain and limitations were there before the accident. We know how to fight these tactics by getting a lot of medical evidence, getting expert opinions and showing how the injury affected your daily life and future possibilities.
The costs of major car accident injuries go beyond just medical bills and lost wages. Many of our clients find that their injuries make it impossible for them to go back to their old job, which means they have to change careers or retire early, which means they will never go back to their old job, which means they will have lower lifetime earning potential. We work with vocational experts and economists to calculate how much these long term losses will cost and make sure they are part of the settlement talks with insurance companies.
Restaurants and bars have a duty to keep their customers safe and prevent them from getting hurt on their premises. We have handled several cases of restaurant and bar liability where careless management, unsafe facilities or poor security led to serious injuries that could have been avoided with better supervision and maintenance.
People who have been hurt badly in a car accident need a lot of help to get better like physical therapy, occupational therapy and counseling. Insurance companies will always try to limit or deny these ongoing expenses which can last for years after the event. We always fight for our clients right to get all the medical care they need no matter how long it takes or how much it costs to get their quality of life back.
In cases of car accidents, the mental anguish that comes with major physical injuries should never be ignored or downplayed. Many people who have been in accidents feel anxious, depressed or have post-traumatic stress that makes it hard for them to work, keep relationships or enjoy things they used to enjoy. These mental effects are real effects of the event and its aftermath on your mental health and well being and you should be compensated for them.
