Who Am I Suing and Why?


May 25, 2021

As Canadians, we’ve earned a reputation for loving hockey, Tim Hortons, being ultra-nice… and saying ‘sorry’—a lot—even if something isn’t our fault. While we whole-heartedly encourage kindness here at Litco Law, we feel that it’s equally important to be kind to yourself and get the compensation you deserve if you’ve been injured because of someone else’s negligence.

When it comes to Motor Vehicle Accidents (MVAs) in Alberta, the insurance company is usually responsible for paying the compensation on behalf of the person who was driving. It’s also important to remember that insurance companies are multibillion-dollar businesses, and they will often try to settle your claim for the lowest possible amount. Having an experienced Personal Injury lawyer on your side will help to ensure that you get the result you deserve. You can’t put a price tag on your health, but you may be able to get compensation for things like loss of income while you’re unable to work, the cost of medical treatments or therapies, prescriptions, loss of enjoyment or quality of life, and more.

Here’s a list of the most common types of injury claims we encounter here at Litco Law— just follow the links to learn about each one.

    IMPORTANT! If you agree to an insurance company’s settlement offer, you give up your legal right to pursue a personal injury claim. It is best to assess the full extent of your injuries and how they will affect your life before you accept an offer. Please note that you have a maximum of two years from the date of the accident to file an injury claim in Alberta.
