What Compensation is Available for Personal Injury Claims?
Because the facts and circumstances surrounding each case are different, each case is unique and requires careful handling and expert examination. As some of the most experienced personal injury lawyers in Vancouver, we have over 30 years of experience handling all kinds of injuries ranging from minor whiplash cases to serious brain injuries. What each case is worth and what compensation you’re entitled to depends on the specific facts of the case. However, generally speaking in personal injury claims you can seek compensation (also called damages) for:
- Pain and suffering (or non-pecuniary damages)
- Past loss of Income
- Future loss of income
- Loss of capacity to earn income
- Loss of homemaking capacity
- Cost of future care
- Out of pocket medical expenses (or special damages)
- In-trust claims
An experienced personal injury lawyer can examine your claim and explain what compensation you’re entitled to and why.
No Upfront Fees – You Don’t Pay Unless We Win
We understand how overwhelming it is to face financial pressures after an accident. That’s why we act on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay no legal fees unless we recover compensation for you. From your first consultation to the resolution of your claim, our goal is to lift the burden off your shoulders.
