Nipissing Personal Injury Lawyer


Anyone can be injured in an accident. In Nipissing, university students, senior citizens, and motorcycle riders are particularly susceptible to severe injuries caused by the negligence of another party or entity. 

Accidents in Nipissing can take place in various locations, circumstances, and conditions. Injuries sustained in unexpected accidents can vary in terms of severity and impact. Common injuries resulting from accidents in the region include:

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

Overcoming physical injuries and re-adjusting to normal life after a severe accident can be a grueling process.The process of recovery often takes a significant toll on the psychological and financial well-being of injured accident victims. Indeed, many injured accident victims develop secondary disabilities in the form of serious mental health concerns as well as substantial economic losses. Because of someone else’s negligence, an injured accident victim could be forced to cope with an entirely different lived reality for the rest of their lives.

If you have been injured in an unexpected, traumatic set of circumstances, you may be inclined to initially blame yourself. You may believe that your lack of caution, focus, or coordination caused your accident to occur. In fact, many accident victims try to leave the scene of their incidents as quickly as possible in an attempt to ignore or minimize the injuries they have sustained. 

However, what most people do not realize is that accidents culminating in serious injuries are often the result of another party’s wrongful conduct. Accidents in Nipissing are frequently the result of someone else’s negligence. Even if your accident occurred when no other people were physically present, someone else entirely could be at fault. 

If you were injured and are unsure whether the circumstances of your accident entitle you to pursue compensation from the person or organization responsible, take advantage of a free initial consultation with our personal injury lawyers serving Nipissing. To learn more, call Preszler Injury Lawyers at 1-800-JUSTICE today. 

Our Nipissing personal injury lawyers have represented local members of the community who have been injured in numerous circumstances and situations caused by the negligence of others. Frequently, these include:

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

These accidents may seem different at first glance, however, they often have one common factor. When these accidents cause an innocent, unsuspecting victim to sustain injuries, oftentimes they are the product of someone else’s negligence. If that is the case, our personal injury lawyers serving Nipissing may be able to help the injured survivors of these accidents recover the compensation they are rightfully owed. 

Whether you are eligible to pursue a personal injury claim to recover damages is dependent on several factors, primarily, whether your injury-causing accident would have occurred had it not been for the at-fault party’s negligence. That means, in order to establish whether you are entitled to compensation, our personal injury lawyers serving Nipissing must be able to prove that:

  • The at-fault party owed you a duty of care
  • Through their wrongful actions, the at-fault party failed to fulfill their requisite duty of care
  • Because of their wrongful actions, a preventable accident occurred in which you sustained injuries
  • As a result of the injuries you sustained, you incurred financial losses

You do not need to have a personal, professional, or otherwise pre-existing relationship with the at-fault party in order to have been owed a duty of care. The majority of injury-causing accidents in the province involve people who have never even met before. Despite this fact, in many cases, the responsible party failed to fulfill a legal obligation to the other party, and failed to act in a responsible, considerate manner. 

Many people owe their fellow community members a duty of care. Often this legal obligation to protect the physical safety of others extends to complete strangers. Without even necessarily knowing it, many people throughout the province have legal responsibilities to behave in a manner that protects the physical well-being of others around them.

For example, in accordance with the province’s Highway Traffic Act, anyone who owns or operates a motor vehicle in the province is required to do so in consideration of other road-users’ safety. This includes other drivers, passengers, motorcyclists, bicyclists, pedestrians, and others. 

Provincial legislations and traffic laws exist to reduce the rate of injuries and fatalities on the province’s roads and highways. If a driver violates these rules by committing any type of unlawful offense, even for the briefest of moments, their wrongful actions could cause a collision in which another party loses their life or sustains severe, permanent injuries. 

Common examples of driver negligence that often leads to accidents on the roads and highways in and around Nipissing often include:

  • Texting while driving
  • Driving under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs
  • Speeding 
  • Distracted driving 
  • Ignoring traffic signals/signs 
  • And more

Similarly, in accordance with the province’s Occupiers’ Liability Act, property owners and/or occupiers are required to take reasonable, preventative measures to adequately address potential hazards on their premises in order to reduce the risk of injuries on their property. Failure to be mindful of their visitors’ safety could make them liable for resulting damages incurred by injured accident victims.

The consequences of negligence can be life-changing, often impacting generations of families trying to grapple with the lived realities of caring for a severely injured relative. 

When certain parties neglect their responsibilities, their actions can have serious, long-lasting consequences. If someone else’s wrongful actions, inactions, errors, omissions, or other forms of negligence cause another person to sustain injuries, the at-fault party may be liable for damages they have incurred as a result of their behaviour.
