Cambridge Car Accident Lawyer
After being involved in an injury-causing motor vehicle collision, many survivors incur substantial financial losses as a result of the accident’s physical and/or psychological effects. However, many injured car accident survivors are hesitant to pursue legal action against the negligent driver whose wrongful conduct caused them to sustain injuries.
Rather than instigate more conflict during an already challenging moment in their lives, many injured car crash survivors try to make do with the accident benefits they are awarded from their insurance provider. However, depending on the severity of the injuries sustained in the collision and their effects on an accident survivor’s overall quality of life, the accident benefits available may not sufficiently cover all injury-related costs they have incurred.
No matter who was responsible for causing an injurious collision, injured car crash survivors might be entitled to compensation. In accordance with the province’s Compulsory Automobile Insurance Act, anyone who owns, leases, operates, or allows a motor vehicle to be operated must have automobile insurance. All automobile insurance policies in Ontario must offer the coverage outlined in the province’s Statutory Accident Benefits Schedule (SABS). As such, all automobile insurance plans in the province must include coverage for no-fault accident benefits.
That means that, regardless of which driver’s wrongful actions caused the collision to occur, injured survivors of that collision should be able to recover certain costs associated with their injuries through their insurance plans. Accident benefits often provide injured car crash survivors with compensation for:
- Medical expenses
- Attendant care
- Physiotherapy
- Mobility aids, assistive medical equipment
- Prescriptions
- Home modifications to accommodate newly acquired disabilities
- Ambulance services
- Mileage expenses to and from medical appointments
- Housekeeping services
- And possibly more
While accident benefits can provide injured car crash survivors with much-needed financial relief to help them cope with the newly acquired post-accident expenses, the amount of available benefits is rarely enough to cover the total losses they have incurred. This is especially true for accident victims who have sustained severe or catastrophic injuries.
