Recovering Compensation for Damages
Recovering compensation in a personal injury claim requires satisfying the burden of proof. This means demonstrating that the other party's negligence directly caused your injuries and resulting damages. Here's how we help establish your claim:
Proving Negligence : Our lawyers collect and analyze evidence, such as accident reports, medical records, witness statements, and expert testimony, to demonstrate that the at-fault party failed to exercise reasonable care.
Calculating Damages: Victims of personal injury may be entitled to various types of compensation, including:
Medical Expenses : Covering the cost of out-of-pocket medical treatment not covered by OHIP or your accident benefits, both past and future. In most cases other than motor vehicle accidents, OHIP has a legal right to be repaid out of your settlement for any treatment it already covered, so we account for this when calculating and negotiating your claim.
Lost Income : Reimbursing you for income lost due to your inability to work during recovery.
Pain and Suffering : Covering the cost to repair or replace damaged property.
Property Damage : Covering the cost to repair or replace damaged property.
Loss of Enjoyment of Life: Addressing how your injuries impact your ability to participate in activities you once enjoyed.

File Your Claim Online
In Ontario, personal injury claims are subject to a limitation period, which is the legal deadline for filing your lawsuit. Generally, Ontario law allows two years from the date you discovered, or should have discovered, your claim to file a lawsuit. However, certain circumstances, such as claims involving municipalities or other government entities, may have much shorter deadlines, sometimes as little as 10 days.
Failing to file your claim within this timeframe will likely result in losing your right to seek compensation. This is why it's essential to act quickly and consult with an experienced lawyer who can ensure all deadlines are met.
At Merricks Law Group, we will promptly evaluate your case, preserve crucial evidence, and take swift action to file your claim on time. Don't wait — your future may depend on it.
