In general, a successful personal injury claim requires an investigation into the accident and documentation of all related expenses. Generally, the injured person must prove that the at-fault party breached their legal duty of care and this caused injury and damages. In car accidents, this could mean that the driver failed to operate their vehicle safely and this caused a collision. In pedestrian accidents, fault can be divided based on Nova Scotia’s contributory negligence laws.
Finding the Right Halifax Injury Attorney for Your Case
The immediate aftermath of an accident should be focused on getting medical attention and informing all the relevant parties. Once you’re stable, your lawyer can start the process of collecting evidence and preparing documents for filing. In the meantime, you can receive benefits from your auto insurer (Section B accident benefits in Nova Scotia) to cover any immediate costs and loss of income.
