CAR ACCIDENT FAQ

To determine if you have a valid personal injury claim, consider factors such as the extent of your injuries, the liability of the other party/parties involved, and whether negligence contributed to the accident. Consulting with a qualified personal injury lawyer can provide clarity on the strength of your claim.

After a car accident, prioritize your safety and the safety of others involved. Contact emergency services, exchange contact and insurance information with the other parties, document the scene with photos or videos if possible, and seek medical attention even for seemingly minor injuries. It’s crucial to report the accident to the police and notify your insurance company promptly.

In Alberta, you may be entitled to compensation for various damages, including medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, property damage, and rehabilitation costs. The specific compensation you can pursue depends on the circumstances of your case and the extent of your injuries.

In Alberta, the statute of limitations for filing a personal injury claim is typically two years from the date of the accident. It’s essential to initiate legal proceedings within this timeframe to preserve your right to seek compensation. However, it’s advisable to consult with a personal injury lawyer as soon as possible to ensure all deadlines are met.

Yes, you may still be able to pursue compensation even if you were partially at fault for the accident under Alberta’s comparative negligence system. However, your compensation may be reduced in proportion to your degree of fault. Consulting with a knowledgeable personal injury lawyer can help assess your case and determine the potential impact of shared fault on your compensation.
