DO I NEED A LAWYER?

There is no cost to speaking with one of our lawyers. Get the facts before you make any decisions.

The bottom line for insurance companies is minimizing financial exposure. From the minute you first interact with an insurance company, be it ICBC or any other, your claim is “adjusted” by assessing fault for the accident and/or the nature and extent of your injuries and loss. In other words, assessing the financial risk that your claim poses to the insurance company is the main focus.

The longer you remain unrepresented the longer the value of your claim may be compromised, particularly with respect to findings of fault relating to an accident claim. You should also know that there are strict time limitations within which you must act in order to protect your rights. For instance, as a general rule (with some exceptions) lawsuits arising out of motor vehicle accidents must be brought within two (2) years from when they occurred. Failure to begin your lawsuit by filing an action within the required time may mean that you could be barred forever from pursuing your action.

The final settlement that you realize for your injuries, loss, and damage (be it through negotiation, mediation, or in the form of a judge or jury verdict), will be dictated by the quality and competence of your legal counsel.
