Fort Frances Personal Injury Lawyer


The negligence of certain people can have fatal consequences. In the short time it takes a driver to turn their attention away from the road to glance at a cell phone notification, lives can be lost. 

Traumatic accidents in Fort Frances often have deadly results. They can also lead to serious injuries requiring hospitalization, long-term physiotherapy, and expensive costs of medical care. These injuries often include: 

  • Traumatic brain injuries
  • Facial and dental injuries
  • Concussions
  • Strains and sprains
  • Broken or fractured bones
  • Musculoskeletal injuries
  • Internal organ damage
  • Cuts and lacerations
  • Amputations
  • Paralysis
  • Neck and back injuries
  • Spinal cord injuries 
  • And more 

Recovering from serious injuries sustained in traumatic accidents can be a long, difficult, and expensive journey. Injured accident victims are often required to take time off work in order to adequately heal from their injuries. In these circumstances, in addition to sustaining financial losses related to necessary medical expenses, injured accident survivors might lose wages and other work-related income, like tips or commissions. Furthermore, if their injuries make it impossible for them to continue working in their chosen fields, as a result of their injurious accident, they could be forced to cope with a reduced future earning capability. 

Our Fort Frances personal injury lawyers believe that no one should be forced to suffer the adverse financial implications of someone else’s negligence. Depending on a number of factors, including the severity of the injuries you sustained in your accident, by pursuing a personal injury claim against the at-fault party whose wrongful conduct caused you to be injured, you may be eligible to recover economic and non-economic damages. 

Economic damages refer to the calculable costs you have incurred because of the injuries you sustained, as well as damages you may incur in the future. For example, if your injuries make it impossible for you to continue performing the duties of your job, you may be able to receive compensation for the expected loss of future income. 

Non-economic damages are more difficult to quantify, however their impact on an injured accident victim’s life are often just as consequential as the financial losses they have incurred. People who have survived severe accidents with catastrophic injuries may be entitled to pursue non-economic damages in a civil claim if their newly acquired impairments prevent them from engaging in the same activities they enjoyed before being injured in their accident. Examples of non-economic damages include pain and suffering, emotional distress, mental anguish, and more.

Have you incurred damages because of the injuries you sustained in an accident caused by someone else’s negligence? If so, you might be eligible to work with our Fort Frances personal injury lawyers in an attempt to recover compensation for:

  • Physiotherapy 
  • Mobility aids, assistive medical equipment
  • Prescriptions
  • Psychological counseling
  • Other medical expenses
  • Pain and suffering
  • Ambulance services
  • Lost wages due to missed work
  • Reduced future earning capability 
  • Mileage expenses to and from medical appointments
  • Home modifications to accommodate newly acquired disabilities 
  • Housekeeping services
  • And possibly more

Our Fort Frances personal injury lawyers have combined decades’ worth of experience providing crucial legal assistance to people who have been injured in a number of traumatic accidents. Accidents that frequently cause people to sustain severe compensable injuries include:

  • Boating accidents
  • Slip and fall accidents
  • ATV accidents
  • Snowmobile accidents
  • Car accidents
  • Sexual abuse
  • Sexual assault
  • Motorcycle accidents
  • Truck accidents
  • E-bike and e-scooter accidents
  • Bicycle accidents
  • Pedestrian accidents
  • And more

While the circumstances of these accidents can vary greatly, often they have one factor in common: someone else’s negligence. If another party or entity failed to take your safety into consideration and, instead, engaged in dangerous, negligent behaviour causing you to sustain injuries, the at-fault party may be liable for damages you incurred as a result of their wrongful conduct. 

Many people are responsible for providing others with a duty of care. Property owners, motor vehicle operators, skilled professionals, product manufacturers, and many other people or organizations throughout the province are required by law to take reasonable precautions to ensure the safety of others. Failing to do so could cause other people to sustain severe injuries. 

If someone else’s failure to uphold the duty of care they owed you caused you to be injured, you may be eligible to pursue a personal injury claim against them. In order to substantiate your claim, our Fort Frances personal injury lawyers may be able to prove a number of facts, including:

  • The negligent party/entity whose wrongful actions caused your injurious accident owed you a duty of care
  • The person/organization responsible for your accident failed to uphold the duty of care they owed you by engaging in unlawful or otherwise wrongful actions (or inactions)
  • Because of the at-fault party’s negligence, you sustained compensable injuries
  • You incurred or will continue to incur monetary losses in the future as a direct result of the injuries you sustained in the accident caused by the negligent party/entity 

In order to prove that your compensable injuries were the direct result of the at-fault party’s negligence, our personal injury lawyers serving Fort Frances may compile and present various forms of evidence. Types of evidence that may help substantiate your claim include:

  • Video surveillance footage
  • Police reports
  • Eyewitness testimonies
  • Evaluations from medical experts
  • Photos of the accident scene
  • Medical reports
  • And more
