Have you been hurt in a car accident? If so, you might be entitled to compensation.
In accordance with the province’s Compulsory Automobile Insurance Act, anyone who owns and/or operates a motor vehicle on Ontario’s roads and highways must have insurance coverage. All automobile insurance policies throughout the province offer coverage commensurate with the Statutory Accident Benefits Schedule (SABS).Â
The provincial SABS requires all automobile insurance plans to include coverage for no-fault accident benefits. If you were injured as the result of a motor vehicle collision, you may be able to recover accident benefits from your insurance provider to help you offset the costs of injury-related expenses. These might include:
- Medical expenses
- Attendant careÂ
- PhysiotherapyÂ
- Mobility aids, assistive medical equipment
- Prescriptions
- Home modifications to accommodate newly acquired disabilitiesÂ
- Ambulance services
- Mileage expenses to and from medical appointments
- Housekeeping services
- Psychological counseling
- And possibly moreÂ
Injured car accident survivors could be awarded no-fault accident benefits even if their own errors or wrongful actions behind the wheel caused the collision to occur. However, depending on the severity of the injuries they have sustained, the amount of insurance coverage to which they may be entitled could be insufficient to cover their total injury-related losses.Â
Sometimes, it can be difficult to determine fault for a traumatic car accident. Other cases, however, are straightforward and clear cut. If it can be proven that another driver’s negligence was responsible for causing an injurious collision, the at-fault driver could be liable for damages incurred by injured accident survivors.Â
According to the province’s Highway Traffic Act, all motor vehicle operators owe a duty of care to other road users. Driver negligence occurs when, through a number of actions, inactions, errors, or other forms of wrongful conduct, the operator of a motor vehicle fails to uphold the duty of care they owe to others. If a driver’s violation of a local traffic law leads to an injury-causing collision, they may be considered negligent and, therefore, responsible for compensating the accident’s injured victims. Some examples of driver negligence that often leads to severe car accidents in Georgina include:
- Texting while driving
- Impaired driving
- Distracted driving
- Fatigued driving
- Speeding
- Ignoring traffic signs/signals
- Improperly changing lanes
- And more
If your collision was caused by another driver’s negligence, our Georgina car accident lawyers may be able to help you recover the compensation you are rightfully owed. If you are eligible to pursue legal action, our car accident lawyers serving Georgina may be able to help you file a civil claim against the at-fault driver. By presenting compelling evidence proving the direct correlation between the negligent driver’s misconduct behind the wheel and the injury-related financial losses you have incurred, our Georgina car accident lawyers may be able to help you get the maximum amount of damages available to you.

car accident FAQs
Here are some commonly asked questions for car accident claims
How soon after an accident can I start receiving loss of income benefits?
Loss of income benefits are typically paid to injured victims of motor vehicle accidents once their claim has been approved by their auto insurance provider. To receive these benefits, you may be required to provide your insurer with documentation from your employer, physicians, and other medical experts stating that your injuries prevent you from working. You will not be granted loss of income benefits for any wages lost during the first 7 days after the injury-causing collision, however you may be eligible to claim lost income for missed working days after that time limitation has elapsed.
What happens if my injuries meet the threshold of catastrophic impairment?
If your injuries meet the threshold of catastrophic impairment, you may be entitled to additional benefits such as increased medical and rehabilitation benefits, attendant care benefits, and housekeeping and home maintenance benefits.
Do my family members have the right to sue the at-fault driver?
Close family members of a person who has been injured or killed in a motor vehicle accident may be able to sue the at-fault driver for their own losses such as loss of care, guidance, and companionship.
How much money can I receive to cover lost wages before and after trial?
The amount of income replacement benefits you can receive will depend on your pre-accident income, but typically these benefits can cover up to 70% of your gross income before the accident, up to a maximum of $400 per week. If you pursue a civil claim against the at-fault driver whose negligence caused your collision, you may be able to recover 100% of your gross income loss and earning capacity after the trial.
