Carrying Place Personal Injury Lawyer


Going about their day-to-day activities, people do not generally imagine that they might be affected by a life-altering accident. However, even on the most ordinary of errands, such as going to the grocery store or on a regular commute to work, the negligent actions of one person can change an accident victim’s life in one instant. 

Injuries sustained by accident victims in Carrying Place can be catastrophic and even fatal, leading to a victim’s wrongful death at the accident scene or shortly thereafter. Improperly maintained conditions on private or commercial property may lead to a slip and fall accident, which carries a risk for blunt force trauma, concussion, and all manner of sprains and strains. Another common cause of injury is car accidents which take the lives of hundreds of Canadians and injure tens of thousands each year.

Survivors of personal injury accidents may sustain both physical and psychological traumas that might never heal fully. Depending on the circumstances and severity of the accident, an injured accident victim may acquire new disabilities and/or psychological conditions such as post-traumatic stress disorder, anxiety, or depression

In the process of seeking recovery or rehabilitation, individuals may incur significant financial expenses such as the costs of medical and psychological treatment, physiotherapy, attendant care, and more. Individuals may need to take time off work because of their injuries, thereby losing income. Because of the negligent actions of another person, an injured accident victim may find themselves in a reduced capacity to enjoy life as they once knew it. Injuries sustained in an accident may affect one’s physical capacities, interpersonal relationships, their ability to work, and their very freedom and independence.

Here are some examples of common injuries caused by accidents stemming from someone else’s negligence:

  • Sprains and strains
  • Bone breaks and fractures
  • Lacerations
  • Cuts
  • Paralysis
  • Amputations
  • Injuries to the musculoskeletal system
  • Damage to the internal organs
  • Spinal cord injuries
  • Concussions
  • Traumatic brain injuries
  • Damage to the face or teeth
  • Injuries to the neck and back
  • And more

The recovery process after a traumatic accident can be difficult and expensive. Whether an individual’s injuries require them to become accustomed to a mobility assistive device such as a walker or wheelchair, or attend regular medical appointments for ongoing treatment, the costs of care can add up. The stress of meeting financial obligations can likewise have profoundly adverse effects on a personal injury accident victim’s recovery and their overall quality of life.

There may be help available to the victims of personal injury accidents and their families. If you were injured as a result of another person’s negligence, you might be entitled to financial compensation for the costs you have incurred as a result of your injuries. Our Carrying Place personal injury lawyers may be able to help talk you through the process of filing a civil claim, and would be happy to address any questions you might have about your specific case. Contact us today to learn more.

Duty of Care

Across Ontario, there are many people who, in accordance with provincial laws, owe others a duty of care. A duty of care means that an individual must take reasonable precautions to protect the safety of others. The owners and occupiers of property in Ontario are responsible for maintaining a reasonable standard of safety on their premises and could be considered liable if a visitor is injured on their property as a result of the occupier’s negligence. Keeping a space reasonably safe may include:

  • Ensuring that floors are level and free of tripping hazards
  • Fixing any broken stairs
  • Installing handrails where required
  • Providing adequate lighting
  • Cleaning up and/or marking any spills or slipping hazards
  • And more

Anytime a person gets behind the wheel of a motor vehicle, they owe a duty of care to their fellow drivers on the road, in addition to their own passengers as well as other road-users such as pedestrians and cyclists. If they fail to adhere to the laws set out by Ontario’s Highway Traffic Act and their negligent actions lead to a collision that causes injury to another party, they may be considered liable.

These are some examples of driver behaviour that may be considered negligent:

  • Distracted driving (eg. texting)
  • Driving while under the influence of drugs and/or alcohol
  • Failure to signal a lane change
  • Failure to obey traffic signs and signals
  • Ignoring the speed limit
  • Tailgating
  • And more

If you have been injured in a motor vehicle accident caused by another driver, you may be entitled to financial compensation by pursuing a personal injury claim. Contact us online or by phone at 1-800-JUSTICE and see how our Carrying Place personal injury lawyers may be able to help you.
