This video explains the process of accessing accident benefits for individuals injured in motor vehicle collisions in Canada. It outlines that those with their own vehicle insurance or dependents of vehicle owners can claim benefits through their insurance company. If you lack personal auto insurance, you can file a claim with the at-fault party's insurer. For those unsure of their options, the video encourages viewers to contact Preszler Injury Lawyers for a free consultation. Additionally, it highlights the possibility of pursuing a lawsuit against the at-fault party if you are not responsible for the accident. For assistance, call 1-800-JUSTICE.
