You may feel lost and overwhelmed when someone else’s carelessness causes an injury. The pain, medical bills and time off work can add up fast. We know this can be tough for you so we offer a free consultation with a Markham personal injury lawyer. We want to make sure you can get the legal help you need without having to worry about the cost. We take the time to listen to what happened, answer your questions and explain your options in plain language at this first meeting. Product liability claims arise when defective products cause injury or harm. You may be eligible for compensation if a manufacturer or seller is at fault. Legal support can help gather evidence and protect your interests.
Many people don’t want to call a lawyer because they think it will cost too much or they’re not sure if their case is strong enough. We believe anyone who has been hurt should be able to learn about their legal rights. During your free consultation you can meet with us, tell us your story and get honest feedback on your situation. You don’t have to hire us and this first talk won’t cost you anything. We’ll help you decide what to do next based on what you know.
In Markham and the Greater Toronto Area our staff has worked on many different types of injury claims. We can help you if you were hurt in a car accident or a slip and fall at a business or someone’s property or if you were hurt because a nursing home or daycare facility was careless. We also help clients with serious injuries such as brain injuries, spinal cord injuries and long term pain. We look at each situation differently. Accident benefits are a key part of many injury cases. If you were hurt in a car accident you may be able to get benefits from your own insurance company regardless of who was at fault. These benefits can help pay for medical treatment, rehabilitation and lost wages while you recover. Unfortunately it’s not always easy to get these benefits. Sometimes insurance companies will deny or delay claims or give you less than you’re owed. We do everything we can to make sure you get all the benefits you’re legally entitled to.
We also help families who have lost a loved one in a wrongful death. It’s hard to lose someone you love because of someone else’s carelessness. While no legal claim can bring your loved one back, it can help pay for funeral costs, lost wages and the emotional pain your family has been through. We treat these matters with the respect they deserve.
The effects of an injury on a child can last a lifetime. Children can get hurt in many places, like childcare centres, schools, playgrounds and during sports injuries. Parents want to make sure their child has the money they need for medical treatment, therapy and other help as they get older. We work to get you fair compensation that takes into account both the short- and long-term needs of your child. Psychological injury from an accident can affect every area of life. These claims deserve the same attention as physical injuries. A legal consultation can help validate your experience and support your recovery.
You may not expect to get hurt but it can happen. Dog bites can hurt people physically and emotionally, especially if the victim is a child. Motorcycle, bike and pedestrian accidents often cause serious injuries because people aren’t as protected as they are in a car. When a restaurant or bar serves too much alcohol and someone gets hurt they may be liable. If a broken product hurts someone they may need to file a product liability claim. We know how to handle these and other tough cases.
Most of the time we at Longo Lawyers work on a contingency fee basis for personal injury matters. This means you don’t have to pay any legal fees unless we win you money. We think this way removes financial barriers and makes sure everyone can get good legal help when they need it most. Contact us today to book your free consultation.
