Practice areas
What kind of claim do you have?
Not every claim starts with an accident, and different claims follow different paths. Find the situation closest to yours to see how the process works and what to expect.
Car and motor vehicle accidents
Claims against the at-fault driver and their insurer after a car, truck, motorcycle, pedestrian or cyclist crash.
Accident benefits
Benefits from your own insurer following a motor vehicle accident, available to you regardless of who caused it.
Catastrophic impairment
Accident benefit claims for the most serious injuries, which unlock significantly higher benefit limits and support.
Long-term disability
Claims against your disability insurer when long-term benefits have been denied, stopped or unfairly cut off.
Slip, trip and fall
Injuries on unsafe or poorly maintained premises, brought against the property owner or occupier responsible.
Medical malpractice
Claims against doctors, hospitals and other health care providers for harm caused by negligent medical care.
Product liability
Claims against manufacturers and distributors for injuries caused by unsafe, defective or poorly labelled products.
Police misconduct
Claims involving excessive force, wrongful arrest or detention, and assault or battery by those in authority.
Assault
Injuries from an assault, brought against the person responsible and any business or institution whose negligence allowed it.
Civil sexual assault
Confidential claims for survivors, handled separately from the criminal process. Ontario sets no limitation period.
After an injury
The first days after an injury: what matters
A few early steps protect both your health and your claim. In short:
- Get medical care promptly, because some injuries take time to appear, and early records connect your condition to what happened.
- Notify your own insurer without delay after a motor vehicle accident, since several of the deadlines that follow are counted in days.
- Document what happened while it is fresh, with photos of the scene and your injuries and the details of any witnesses.
- Keep every document, from prescriptions and receipts to the letters and denial notices the insurer sends.
- Hold off before signing or giving a recorded statement, since you are entitled to legal information first.
Our approach
How we handle a case
We prepare every file properly from the start, deal with the insurers, and keep you informed in plain language. You focus on your recovery while we handle the rest.
First conversation. Free and without obligation. We listen, ask questions, and tell you honestly whether we think you have a claim worth pursuing.
Opening the file. We handle the notices and applications and take the insurer correspondence off your plate.
Building the evidence. We work with your treating doctors and, where a case calls for it, retain qualified specialists to document your injuries and losses.
Advancing your claim. We move your case forward on every track that applies, keeping the deadlines and the strategy aligned.
Resolution. Most claims settle. We prepare every file as though it will go to trial, so the case is ready if a fair settlement is not offered.
Staying in touch. You will have a clear point of contact, plain-language updates, and your calls returned.
Why us
The informed choice for personal injury claims
Choosing a lawyer can feel like a coin toss between the firms that advertise the most and the ones that hand you to a case manager. We keep it simple. The lawyer you speak with first is the lawyer who handles your file, from the opening call through to resolution, so you never have to start your story over with someone new.
Our job is to understand what happened, explain your options in plain language, and prepare the case carefully rather than pushing for a fast settlement. Because recovery matters as much as the claim, we work with your treating doctors and rehabilitation partners in the community while we handle the legal side.
Working with us
Meeting with us in North York
We meet clients across North York, in person in the area, by phone or video, and at home or in hospital when an injury makes travelling difficult. From Willowdale and Don Mills to Bayview Village and the neighbourhoods along Yonge Street and the 401, getting started is usually a short phone call.
North York is part of the City of Toronto, so civil personal injury lawsuits are generally heard through the Superior Court of Justice in downtown Toronto rather than locally. If your injury required care at North York General Hospital or ongoing rehabilitation, we can coordinate with your treating providers as we build the claim.
One practical point: if your injury involved a poorly maintained road or sidewalk owned by the City of Toronto, a short written-notice deadline can apply, separate from the general limitation period. It is easily missed, which is another reason to get advice early.
FAQ
Common questions
Do I need to travel to meet you?
Not necessarily. We meet clients in North York in person, and we also offer phone and video consultations and home or hospital visits when travelling is difficult. Call (416) 477-5956 to arrange whatever works best for you.
Do I have a case?
It depends on whether someone else's negligence caused your injury, and on how serious the injury is. The only reliable way to find out is to have someone review the facts, and that review is free.
What will it cost to hire you?
The first consultation is free. After that we work on a contingency-fee basis, so you do not pay legal fees unless your claim succeeds. The percentage is agreed in writing before we begin, and the agreement also explains how disbursements are handled.
Is there a time limit on making a claim?
Yes. Ontario sets time limits on injury claims, and a few of them are much shorter than the general rule, some counted in days. The limit depends on the type of claim and your dates, so it is best to ask early.
