Ottawa Personal Injury Lawyers David Hollingsworth . Sadly, a 16 year old male remains in critical condition in Ottawa’s CHEO trauma centre after a terrible accident on 8th Line Road and Glenwood drive, close to Metcalfe. the accident happened last night around 10 pm. The teen had been standing beside his snowmobile at the side of the road when he was hit by another vehicle and thrown several feet away. He suffered a severe head injury, as well as serious injuries to his body and legs. He remains in critical condition at CHEO. What a terrible thing to have happened to this young boy. My thoughts are with his family at this very stressful time and I hope he is able to recover fully from this awful accident.

Can you believe this many Ottawa drivers didn’t stop at a stop sign last month ?
Posted by Ottawa Personal Injury Lawyer, Ottawa Accident Lawyer, David Hollingsworth in Ottawa Injury and Accidents, safety on February 8th, 2013
David Hollingsworth and Associates- Personal Injury Lawyers in Ottawa Ontario. Can you believe that Ottawa police issued 271 tickets in January to drivers who failed to properly stop at a stop sign? Ottawa Police also issued 97 tickets to drivers who followed too closely behind the vehicle in front of them. Although obeying these 2 rules seems very obvious, it’s amazing how many Ottawa accidents occur each year as a result of these 2 infractions. so why? Are we always in a rush? Are we not paying attention? Do we think accidents won’t happen to us? Well guess what? They do ! Ottawa accident statistics don’t lie. Doing 2 simple things such as leaving enough space (2 chevrons) between you and the vehicle in front of you and allowing yourself enough time to stop properly can make all the difference . Let’s all work at keeping Ottawa roads safer !

Tragic Ottawa rollover accident Upper Dwyer Hill at March road: car submerged in water filled ditch.
Posted by Ottawa Personal Injury Lawyer, Ottawa Accident Lawyer, David Hollingsworth in Ottawa Injury and Accidents, wrongful death on December 21st, 2012
Ottawa Personal Injury Lawyers David Hollingsworth and Associates. Sadly, a 43 year old woman died yesterday at an Ottawa hospital. She has been submerged under water car after her car flipped and landed in a ditch filled with water on Upper Dwyer Hill Road at March Road. Emergency crews got the call around 8:15, but tragically Ottawa firefighters couldn’t help the woman. They had to first tow the car out of the water ditch and turn it over before Ottawa paramedics could try to start to save her . She was air-lifted to an Ottawa hospital and sadly she succumbed to her injuries. My thoughts are with her family and friends at this very sad and difficult time.

It’s that time of year again when the roads become more dangerous and we are also spending more time on the roads visiting friends. In light of the recent freezing rain conditions here in Ottawa , I thought I would help provide a few reminders when it comes to travel safety…

- booster cables
- safety shovel
- winter boots
- blankets
- gloves
- cell phone
- Have a HELP sign (to be placed on back of window)
What to do in difficult winter driving conditions in Ontario…
- Keep windows, mirrors and lights free of obstructions.
- Check headlamps, signals and tail lights are clear of snow and ice
- Clear off your car entirely, including side mirrors.
- Install snow tires.

Ottawa Accident Lawyer: Important timelines when filing an insurance claim after an accident.
Posted by Ottawa Personal Injury Lawyer, Ottawa Accident Lawyer, David Hollingsworth in Accident Benefits Insurance Claims, Ottawa Injury and Accidents on November 18th, 2012
Ottawa accident Lawyers David Hollingsworth and Associates…Anyone can get hurt in an accident at any given moment. It happens so quickly and the after effects can be devastating. In Ontario, there are certain timelines that need to be adhered to make an insurance claim as easy as possible, following an accident. If you or someone you love has been injured in an accident, these timelines need to be adhered to as best as possible.
First and foremost, if needed seek medical attention immediately and ensure that your health needs are being met.
Within 7 days of your accident, it is crucial…
That you or a loved one notifies your insurance company of the accident.
Within 30 Days of your accident, it is crucial…
That you make an application for accident benefits.
Within 2 Years of your accident, it is crucial…
Your personal injury lawyer files a tort claim against the party who is at fault for the accident. This in turn, makes a claim against the insurer if you are denied accident benefits from your own insurance company.
As an Ottawa personal injury lawyer, I know that the days immediately following an accident, it is difficult to start making claims and filling out applications. That is why it is best to contact an Ottawa personal injury lawyer and let them do this for you.Your job is to recover . Their job is to help you. I can’t tell you how much stress is immediately relieved when I tell my clients in the initial meeting. “Don’t worry, we can take care of this for you.” I can immediately see it in my clients faces and bodies.
There are certain exceptions to these timelines; however they are rare. If you happen to fall into this category, it is best you consult with a personal injury lawyer and let them look into it for you.
