Ontario Lawyer Wrongful Death Claim

Accidents causing death and fatalities claims are serious matter. Nobody should have to go through the sadness and trauma of losing a loved one in a fatal accident. These fatal accidents have a devastating impact on family and friends. We understand that no amount of compensation will ever replace the guidance, care and companionship of the lost family member.

Fatality cases in Ontario are not as straightforward as they initially might seem. The laws for damages in Ontario for fatality cases are complicated, and ever changing. Monetary compensation is available to the estate of the deceased and immediate family of the deceased. Money is available for the loss of servitude to the business if the deceased was self-employed. Goldfinger Personal Injury Law can also help families recover money for the deceased family’s pain and suffering, loss of guidance, care and companionship, funeral costs, medical expenses, damages for nervous shock, and bereavement therapy and counselling services. These claims ARE significant and are certainly worthy pursuing.

There are other considerations which the family will need to make. The family will need to take into considerations what assets or liabilities the deceased has left behind, how these assets or liabilities will be dealt with/distributed; and who will be responsible for dealing with it all. The family will need to see if there was a will or not. The family will need to appoint an estate trustee or a litigation guardian to be the point person for the legal action.

Fatality cases can take place in many different ways. Car accidents, motorcycle/bicycle accidents, boating accidents, slip & fall accidents, recreational activity accidents, violent attacks or tragic multi-person carrier accidents. Each of these scenarios is different and its own set of laws apply to each case.

Insurance Disability Claim denied or Disputed?

We represent clients who have been denied benefits through a group disability insurance policy or a private policy. These cases are usually a great deal dependent on obtaining the required medical evidence to prove the disability in a way contemplated by the policy. Most insurance policies contain time limits that can be difficult to interpret and insurance companies are always looking at being able to deny, delay or dispute your claim. We encourage you to contact us to discuss your case to see if we can be of assistance to you and your family.
