Key Areas of Personal Injury Law

Motor Vehicle Accidents (MVA)

Car accidents are one of the leading causes of personal injury claims. If you have been injured in a collision, you may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, rehabilitation, lost wages, and other damages. ICBC insurance claims play a key role in BC’s accident injury system.

Slip and Fall Injuries

Property owners have a duty to keep their premises safe. If you were injured due to hazardous conditions—such as wet floors, icy sidewalks, or poor lighting—you may have a claim against the property owner or occupier.

Product Liability Claims

When a defective or dangerous product causes harm, you may be able to hold the manufacturer, distributor, or retailer responsible. Product liability claims can involve faulty medical devices, unsafe consumer goods, or contaminated food products.

Workplace Injuries

Most workplace injuries fall under WorkSafeBC, but some cases involve third-party negligence or disputes over benefits. We assist workers in ensuring they receive full and fair compensation.

Bicycle & Pedestrian Accidents

Bicyclists and pedestrians are vulnerable to serious injuries when struck by vehicles. These claims often involve driver negligence, unsafe road conditions, or inadequate signage.

Catastrophic Injuries

Severe injuries—such as spinal cord damage, amputations, or extensive burns—can have long-term consequences. We advocate for victims who need significant compensation to cover ongoing medical care and loss of earning potential.

Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI) & Spinal Cord Injuries

Brain and spinal injuries require extensive treatment and rehabilitation. We help clients secure compensation to support long-term care, therapy, and adaptive living arrangements.

Wrongful Death Claims

Losing a loved one due to negligence is devastating. Wrongful death claims allow families to seek compensation for funeral expenses, lost financial support, and emotional distress.
