London Personal Injury Lawyers

All too often, the negligence of one London resident can have serious repercussions for many other people when their wrongful actions lead to injury-causing accidents. Even if only one person sustains a physical injury because of someone else’s wrongful conduct, the accident can have a negative effect on their personal and professional relationships. 

Injured accident survivors often rely on their family members for emotional and financial support after sustaining serious injuries. Plus, the injuries sustained by accident survivors could impact their ability to complete the duties of their jobs, jeopardizing their professional lives and career goals. 

Sustaining an unexpected injury in a traumatic accident can cause London residents to encounter all kinds of problems, many of which may seem unmanageable.  Cohen Highley LLP have experience providing effective and innovative legal solutions to the injured victims of serious accidents. Our team of specialists recognize how issues arising from personal injuries can affect an entire family, and appreciate our clients’ needs for a timely and effective resolution to their cases. 

SERVICES

Cohen Highley LLP has experience helping children, teenagers, adults, and seniors in the London area who have been hurt in many different traumatic situations, including:

  • Car accidents
  • Motorcycle accidents
  • Bicycle accidents
  • E-bike and e-scooter accidents
  • Pedestrian accidents
  • Boating accidents
  • Horse-riding accidents
  • Truck accidents
  • Slip and fall accidents
  • And more

Accidents like these are, unfortunately, common occurrences in the London area. Our London personal injury lawyers have a history of providing legal assistance to accident victims who have been injured in these types of scenarios, as well as other unpredictable, injurious situations. These include accidents caused by poor road or sidewalk conditions, accidents caused by the improper removal of snow or icicles from rooftops, and other weather-related accidents.

Furthermore, our London personal injury lawyers have handled injury claims resulting from workplace accidents, medical malpractice, accidents caused by defective products, and violent crimes, including assaults, batteries, and other forms of abuse.

The injuries sustained by the survivors of traumatic situations like these can range in severity from mild to debilitating. Even injuries that appear to be negligible in the immediate aftermath of a traumatic accident could have severe effects later in the recovery process. All areas of an accident victim’s life can be impacted by the injuries they have sustained, including:

  • Head injuries
  • Concussions
  • Traumatic brain injuries 
  • Whiplash
  • Soft-tissue injuries
  • Nerve injuries
  • Strained or torn muscles and/or tendons
  • Spinal cord injuries
  • Broken bones
  • Sensory loss
  • And more

In addition to the physical injuries often sustained by the victims of traumatic accidents, London residents who have been hurt because of someone else’s negligence often develop issues related to their mental health. Surviving a serious accident, physical assault, or other unexpected, injurious situation can be traumatizing. The process of recovery can be long, demoralizing, and lonely. In many instances, the injured survivors of serious accidents develop severe mental health issues, including:

  • Depression
  • Anxiety
  • Post-traumatic stress disorder
  • Sleep disorders
  • And more

If you were injured in an accident caused by someone else’s negligence, our London personal injury lawyers may be able to help you pursue a civil claim so that you can obtain compensation for your injuries. Furthermore, if your family member sustained fatal injuries in an accident that led to their wrongful death, our London personal injury lawyers may be able to help in your pursuit of accountability and justice.  

Depending on the circumstances of your case, our London personal injury lawyers may be able to help you make claims against the parties or entities responsible for causing you to sustain injuries and/or incur damages. If you are eligible, Cohen Highley LLP may be able to help you file civil claims against:

  • Negligent motor vehicle operators whose wrongful conduct caused your collision
  • Negligent property owners/occupiers whose failure to properly maintain their premises caused you to sustain injuries in a slip and fall
  • The municipality whose failure to maintain roads, sidewalks, or other city-owned properties caused you to be harmed
  • Negligent owners of horses or other animals who failed to protect you from harm
  • Negligent healthcare or dentalcare providers whose errors or misconduct caused your medical condition to worsen
  • Negligent product manufacturers whose wrongful actions rendered their products hazardous for use
  • People who have committed assault, battery, or other criminal acts against you
  • And more

Certain injuries resulting from traumatic accidents might qualify you to receive certain types of insurance coverage. If you should be eligible to collect no-fault accident benefits or long-term disability benefits because of the injuries you sustained, but your claim was turned down by your insurance provider, our London personal injury lawyers may be able to help you pursue legal action to recover the payments you are deservedly owed.  

EXPERIENCE

Our team has a long history of experience in motor vehicle litigation. Our London personal injury lawyers have assisted clients who have been injured in Ontario car accidents, motor vehicle collisions that occurred outside the province, as well as car crashes that took place in the United States. Our experience includes the representation of clients who have been injured in single-vehicle collisions wherein the driver was found to be at-fault.

Regardless of who was responsible for causing their collision, injured motorists may be able to access substantial no-fault accident benefits to help them afford necessary costs arising from the injuries they sustained as a result of their accident. Even if your own actions caused your motor vehicle collision to occur, our London personal injury lawyers may be able to help you receive the benefits payments you are rightfully owed in a timely manner and negotiate final settlements on your behalf. 

If you were injured in an accident, it may be unclear whether you are entitled to compensation and eligible to pursue a civil claim. Our London personal injury lawyers invite questions from potential clients. Cohen Highley LLP does not charge for an initial interview with our London personal injury lawyers.
