Motor Vehicle Accidents

If you have been injured in a motor vehicle accident involving a car, truck, motorcycle, ATV or snowmobile, call Opalinski Law for a free consultation regarding your rights. Accidents of this nature can cause devastating injuries and you are entitled to fair compensation. At Opalinski Law we will work aggressively as your advocate to recover compensation for pain and suffering, income loss, medical expenses and costs associated with your injuries and recovery.

Accident Benefits

In Ontario, all automobile policies include statutory accident benefits coverage which entitle an injured person to benefits such as Medical Rehabilitation, Income Replacement, Attendant Care and more. Accident Benefits are available to the driver, passenger or pedestrian involved in a motor vehicle accident.

These benefits are available to you even if you cause the accident.

The accident benefits claims process is complex and can be difficult to navigate without experienced legal counsel.

Pedestrian or Cyclist Accidents

If you or a loved one have been hit by a car while walking or biking, you are entitled to compensation. At Opalinski Law we will work aggressively as your advocate to recover all the benefits to which you are entitled.

Slip and Fall

If you have suffered an injury as a result of a slip and fall accident caused by someone’s negligence, you may be entitled to compensation. A slip and fall can result from:

Liquid spills
Snow and ice
Maintenance negligence
Disrepair of city sidewalks and roads
Construction debris & hazards
Inadequate snow and ice removal from walkways and sidewalks

Disability Claims

Insurers often delay or deny payment of disability benefits based on technicalities. Insurance companies commonly allege that you are either insufficiently disabled or made misrepresentations on your application for benefits. This often discourages injured victims from pursuing their rights to disability benefits.

The result is great financial hardship and pressure to return to work despite continued disability.

If you have been denied short or long term disability benefits, contact us today and learn how Opalinski Law can help.

Fatal Accidents & Wrongful Death

If you have lost a loved one we will work tirelessly as your advocate and navigate the legal system with you. Whether your insurance company is refusing to honour a life insurance policy or compensation, we will work as your advocate to secure fair compensation.

Brain Injuries

Brain injuries, whether acquired brain injuries (ABI) or traumatic brain injuries (TBI), are serious personal injuries covering a wide range of conditions including concussions, brain damage and in the most severe cases comas and vegetative states.

If you or a loved one has suffered a brain injury caused by someone’s negligence or actions, you need an experienced lawyer.

Spinal Cord Injuries

If you or a loved one has suffered a spinal cord injury, you need an experienced personal injury lawyer. The legal process is often overwhelming and difficult to navigate.
