Does "no fault" mean I can't sue?

No. The concept of "no fault" insurance can be very confusing to someone who has sustained injury as a result of a motor vehicle accident. "No fault" benefits apply to anyone who has been injured in an accident. These benefits are, by law, included in every automobile insurance policy available in Ontario. An injured party can obtain this compensation according to strict guidelines known as the "Statutory Accident Benefits Schedule". In order to claim these benefits, it is important to enlist the services of a legal professional to guide you through the process and protect your rights. In addition, if you have sustained a serious permanent impairment of an important physical, mental or psychological function as a result of the accident, you may be able to sue the other driver. You should speak to a Pace Law Firm personal injury lawyer about your right to sue.

  Toronto Ontario: Pace Law Firm recently obtained a $1.6 million dollar settlement for a client who suffered non-catastrophic injuries as a passenger in a car accident.

  Pace Law Firm Obtains $3.4 Million Dollars in Settlement

  Toronto, Ontario: Pace Law Firm recently obtained a $3.5 million dollar settlement for a client who suffered a car accident in 2003. The accident originally caused modest soft tissue damage which then escalated to catastrophic tissue damage, resulting in devastating effects for both client and family. The impact of the accident on the family was directly proportionate to the effect of the accident on the mother, and the settlement was awarded with this in mind.
