Parry Sound Personal Injury Lawyer


In Parry Sound, a number of unintentional situations can put innocent people in the hospital, rob them of their mobility, and even prematurely end their lives. Slipping on improperly cleared ice and/or snow outside someone else’s business, encountering a distracted driver on the highway while safely operating a motorcycle, being involved in a snowmobile accident with an inebriated rider, or any other number of unfortunate scenarios can cause unsuspecting community members undue physical, emotional, and financial stress. It can also result in their loss of life.

Despite the fact that accidents in Parry Sound often take place in various locales and circumstances, they frequently share a common cause: the negligence of another party and/or entity. Because of someone else’s failure to take necessary, lawful safety precautions to protect the physical well-being of others, innocent residents of the region can face challenging, lifelong consequences. 

There are many types of people throughout the region who have a legal responsibility to fulfill a duty of care to their neighbours and fellow citizens. Failure to meet those responsibilities can lead to injury-causing accidents. In these cases, it does not matter whether the responsible party had a personal or otherwise pre-existing relationship with the accident victim; many perfect strangers throughout the province owe one another a duty of care. 

The responsibilities of property owners/occupiers in the province, for example, are laid out within the Ontario Occupiers’ Liability Act. As such, it is incumbent upon the people and/or organizations that own and/or manage the maintenance of residential and commercial properties to regularly inspect and routinely perform maintenance around their premises. They must identify, repair, or warn visitors to the property about hazards on-site that could pose a danger to others. These rules exist in an attempt to reduce the risk of physical injuries on someone else’s property. 

If the owner and/or occupier of a property knows about a potentially hazardous maintenance issue on their premises (or should know about it because they should be performing regular inspections) and fails to properly repair the issue, remove it from the premises entirely, or properly warn guests about it, serious slip and fall accidents can occur. And when their lack of consideration for guests’ safety results in serious injuries, the at-fault property owner/occupier might be considered negligent and, therefore, responsible for compensating their injured victim. 

Similarly, when the operators of motor vehicles behave unlawfully behind the wheel, their wrongful actions could have major consequences. Drivers are required by law to provide a duty of care to all other road-users. In accordance with the province’s Highway Traffic Act, the operators of motor vehicles must exercise caution behind the wheel and obey local traffic laws so that others will not be injured or killed as a result of their negligence. A driver might be considered negligent if their violation of any number of traffic laws results in an injurious collision with another driver, pedestrian, motorcyclist, bicyclist, passenger, or other road-users.Common traffic law violations that often culminate in injurious collisions include:

  • Failing to obey traffic signs/signals
  • Distracted driving
  • Texting while driving
  • Speeding
  • Driving under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs
  • And more

Motor vehicle collisions caused by another driver’s negligence are often fatal. Because a driver felt the need to operate their vehicle while inebriated, check a text message notification behind the wheel, speed unnecessarily, or engage in any kind of thoughtless, unsafe behaviour, families can be torn apart and the lives of innocent accident victims can be destroyed.  

Those fortunate enough to survive serious car accidents often sustain a number of injuries that require hospitalization, including: 

  • Paralysis
  • Spinal cord injuries 
  • Neck and back injuries
  • Traumatic brain injuries
  • Concussions
  • Amputations
  • Cuts and lacerations
  • Internal organ damage
  • Facial and dental injuries
  • Strains and sprains
  • Musculoskeletal injuries
  • Broken or fractured bones
  • And more 

If you sustained compensable injuries in an accident caused by someone else’s negligence, you might be entitled to compensation. By working with our Parry Sound personal injury lawyers, the injured victims of another party or entity’s negligence may be able to pursue accountability and restitution through legal action. 

If you are eligible to pursue a civil claim against the at-fault party whose negligence caused you to sustain compensable injuries, our personal injury lawyers serving Parry Sound may be able to help you prove that:

  • The person or organization that caused your accident owed you a duty of care
  • By engaging in wrongful conduct, the at-fault party failed to uphold that duty of care
