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.

After an injury

Right after an injury: where to start

The choices you make in the first days can protect both your health and your claim. A short guide:

  • See a doctor without waiting. Some injuries take days to appear, and early medical records connect your condition to what happened.
  • Let your own insurer know promptly after a motor vehicle accident. Several of the deadlines that follow are counted in days.
  • Write down and photograph what happened while it is fresh, and collect the names and numbers of any witnesses.
  • Keep every document, including prescriptions, receipts, and any letters or denial notices from the insurer.
  • Take your time before signing. You are entitled to legal information before giving a recorded statement or signing a release.

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.

  1. First conversation. Free and without obligation. We listen, ask questions, and tell you honestly whether we think you have a claim worth pursuing.

  2. Opening the file. We handle the notices and applications and take the insurer correspondence off your plate.

  3. 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.

  4. Advancing your claim. We move your case forward on every track that applies, keeping the deadlines and the strategy aligned.

  5. 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.

  6. 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

It is easy to feel lost between the firms that shout the loudest in their advertising and the ones that pass you to a case manager. We keep it straightforward. The lawyer you speak with first is the lawyer who handles your file, from the opening call through to the day it resolves, so you are never starting over with someone new.

Our approach is to understand what happened, lay out your options in plain language, and build the case carefully instead of chasing a quick settlement. Because recovery counts as much as the claim, we work with your treating doctors and rehabilitation partners in the community while we take care of the legal side.

Meet the lawyers

Working with us

Meeting with us in Scarborough

We meet clients across Scarborough, in person in the area, by phone or video, and at home or in hospital when an injury makes travelling hard. From Agincourt and Dorset Park to Morningside and the communities along the 401, the first step is usually a simple phone call.

Scarborough is part of the City of Toronto, which shapes where a lawsuit is heard. While the Scarborough courthouse on Eglinton Avenue East deals with criminal matters, civil personal injury cases in Toronto are generally heard through the Superior Court of Justice downtown. If your injury required care at Scarborough 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 Scarborough 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.
