In the Ontario area, your chances of having a car accident that has serious medical effects as well as material damages are pretty high. Even minor-appearing car accidents may have lasting effects on the bodies of you or your passengers. Your legal entitlement to damages should not be taken lightly. Effects of sudden jolts on the body and brain sometimes take weeks to appear. in many ways, car accident injuries can be like athletic injuries that appear slowly.

If the accident that causes you hardship is due to the negligence of others, you have a right to compensation to cover your losses plus your suffering, under civil law. as with other civil law cases, there will be two sides to your accident compensation case, you and the ones seeking compensation vs the negligent party and the insurance companies that have to pay. the insurance company will try to diminish the seriousness of your claim, dissuade you from having your medical situation fully evaluated and try to rush you into making statements before you seek representation.
