Ontario, Ottawa slip and fall settlement / Ottawa Lawyer explains..

Even though the mild weather is coming to Ottawa, slip and fall accidents still happen regularly.  The ice is melting and has a slick layer of water on top, which remains invisible to the pedestrian.  In most instances, when you suffer from an Ontario slip and fall accident, property owners will often try to settle your Ontario accident claim out of court. An Ontario accident settlement offer may be presented as a lump amount or as a structured settlement with several payments spread out over time.  If you slip or fall on a business’ property, the settlement offer is usually lower than if the case goes to trial.  This is where the top Ottawa personal injury lawyers can help.  An experienced Ottawa personal injury lawyer will be able to fight for you and get the maximum settlement offer.  A skilled Ottawa personal injury lawyer with experience handling Ottawa slip and fall accident cases similar to yours can help you determine what to expect. Each case is complex and requires a skilled personal injury lawyer to determine whether a settlement offer is fair or not. In most cases, when an Ottawa personal injury lawyer is not involved, it is not.  Most Ottawa personal injury lawyers get paid out of the settlement (contingency fee) and are likely to negotiate aggressively to get you the maximum settlement.

Ottawa Personal Injury Lawyer David Hollingsworth specializes in Ontario slip and fall accidents and Ottawa personal injury, dedicated to his clients and fighting for maximum settlement for physical or mental harm or personal injury caused by negligence and Ontario accidents.  As one of the best Ottawa personal injury lawyers, David has earned an outstanding reputation in the areas of Ontario personal injury, slip and fall accidents and Ontario motor vehicle accidents.  For more information, visit www.ottawainjury.ca

Ottawa Lawyer – Spinal Cord Injury and Hockey

Ottawa Spinal Cord Injury Lawyer – David Hollingsworth shares spinal cord injury and hockey news..

From the Canadian Paraplegic Association..

 Almost each and every week throughout the hockey season an amateur or professional hockey player suffers a serious spinal cord injury. From 1982 – 1996, statistics in Canada reported 252 hockey related major spinal cord injuries, followed by Sweden with 54 and the United States with 36. Most of those spinal cord injuries were sustained by players who were 16 to 20 years old who were playing in supervised games which reinforces the necessity of aiming education at  the minor hockey community with the message of skilled and respectful play.

I love my hockey- there is no doubt about it.  I play, my son plays and I hope my daughters will play soon.  It’s so important to educate everyone on the ice about safety the potential dangers on the ice.  A spinal cord injury can happen in a matter of seconds..play safe !

New Ontario Auto Insurance : Changes Accident Benefits : SABS

Ontario Insurance Claims Lawyer :  Ontario Accident Benefits Lawyer shares of Ontario’s  auto insurance regulations changes to SABS . Ottawa Personal Injury Lawyer David Hollingsworth.

Ontario drivers take note: The new Ontario auto insurance regulations will take effect Sept. 1, 2010. The changes include major reductions to accident benefits available in non-catastrophic injury cases along with other significant changes.

The Ontario Minister of Finance has announced changes to Ontario automobile insurance designed to avoid  premium increases by stripping down the basic auto insurance coverage. 

The changes provide consumers with options to buy additional accident benefit packages at additional cost.  The question is how many will?  Most likely most car owners will opt for reduced basic auto insurance coverage which means many seriously injured accident victims  end up with access to less insurance protection.  Equally as disturbing, are those without  access to their own automobile insurance policy will only be eligible for a very reduced basic auto insurance coverage.

Some insurers will experience a drop in insurance rates but it will be infortunately at the expense of the seriously (but not catastrophically) injured Ontario accident victims and those looking to fully protect themselves in an accident and are willing to pay a higher insurance premium.

What these changes mean for the people of Ontario… 

The changes include a new Statutory Accident Benefits Schedule (SABS) that now has a cap on medical/rehabilitation and assessment/examination expenses for minor injury at $3500.

 New Minor Injury ( a sprain, strain, whiplash associated disorder, contusion, abrasion, laceration or subluxation and any clinically associated sequelae) Guideline for Ontario accidents. 

Standard medical and rehabilitation coverage for non-catastrophic claims of $50,000, with optional coverage of $100,000 or $1.1 million.

Standard attendant care coverage for non-catastrophic claims of $36,000, with optional coverage of either $72,000 or $1.072 million. For non-catastrophic claimants, insurers will supply optional caregiver, housekeeping and home maintenance benefits.

 Payment for all in-home assessments are capped at $2000 and will be available only to those claimants who have sustained more than a minor injury. 

 Rebuttal examinations and approval forms will be eliminated.

 Several procedures will be simplified and merged (ex: treatment plans and applications for approval of assessments or examinations will now be merged into one process).

 Adjusters will have discretion in the use of insurer examinations.

The new SABS also contains a definition for “incurred expense”.

David Hollingsworth has been an Ottawa Personal Injury Lawyer since 1999 dedicated to helping Ontario accident victims. For more information on how these changes affect you, visit www.ottawainjury.ca or call for free consultation 613 978-9549.

Brain Injury and Head Injury in Ottawa Children

For more information on personal injuries: visit www.ottawainjury.ca      

David Hollingsworth : Ottawa Personal Injury Lawyer – On the heals of our very exciting Olympic win last night in men’s hockey this timely article was published in the Ottawa Citizen.  I am a father of 3, and every time I go to an Ottawa outdoor rink with my kids and see someone without a helmet on, I am in disbelief ! 

The city of Ottawa is planning on  requiring children under  13 to wear helmets at Ottawa indoor skating rinks, but may stop short of an Ottawa bylaw making helmets mandatory for Ottawa children in all outdoor sports. The city of Ottawa already makes minors wear helmets when they participate in Ottawa city-run skating programs, or use the indoor skateboard park or the BMX park. The new policy will extend mandatory helmet use for children to all Ottawa public skating sessions.

Studies show that proper helmet use can prevent head injury and brain injury in children. Earlier this winter, Ottawa emergency-room doctors at the Ottawa hospital treated more than 50 children with head injury and facial injury as a result of  skating and tobogganing Ottawa accidents. Approximately 1/2  of them suffered concussions while the other 1/2 had injuries ranging from cuts to broken jaws incurred as a result of face-plants on the ice. Of all the winter outdoor sports, ice skating accounts for the most Ottawa ER visits for head injury in children. Some believe that making a mandatory rule for helmet use creates barriers and limits those who may participate in Ottawa sporting activities.  What do you think?
