Ottawa Car Accident Lawyers   Automobile accident law in Ontario is extremely complex. The insurance industry is a significant lobby group and car insurance law, like most insurance law, is complex. In Ontario we have a "no-fault" car accident system. While the at fault driver will be held accountable for damages, the no fault principle ensures that any person injured in a car accident will receive basic benefits, called accident benefits in Ontario,regardless of fault. In essence, part of the compensation you can receive for your injuries does not have anything to do with whose fault the accident is. Standard accident benefits contained in insurance policies in Ontario under the provincial Insurance Act include medical expenses, rehabilitation, care giver costs, income replacement benefits and more.   If you are injured in a car accident because of someone else's fault, you can sue whoever is responsible for fair compensation. This can include loss of income, pain and suffering, housekeeping costs, future care costs, out of pocket expenses and other expenses not covered by standard accident benefits coverage.   As Ottawa car accident lawyers, we focus our law practice only on accident cases.  We obtain millions of dollars in compensation for our clients each year.
