Ottawa Lawyer : What is Ontario slip and fall compensation ?

Ottawa Injury Lawyer David Hollingsworth… 

Ontario, Ottawa Pedestrian Injury Lawyer David Hollingsworth. David has a lot of experience with individuals who have sustained slip and fall injuries while in a store and have slipped and fell from either poor maintenance of the floor itself (elevated or cracked), or it is slippery from a spill of a liquid of some sort. Putting a sign saying the floor is wet is simply not enough to prevent a serious injury, ensuring the floor is dry will prevent the injury. The same goes for a damaged floor. If a floor is wet or damaged it should be fixed immediately. That is the responsibility of the store. If you suffer a serious injury, there is compensation available to you and that is where the best Ottawa personal injury lawyers can help.

What Can You Do if you slip or fall in a store and suffer a serious injury?

If you are shopping and see something that appears unsafe within a store, do your part and tell an employee or a manager. If we all do our part we can prevent Ottawa slip and fall injuries.

Ottawa Personal Injury Lawyer David Hollingsworth’s Experience

David has had many clients who have been unfortunate enough to slip and fall within a store and have experienced severe, neck, back, leg, arm, spine, and head injuries. These injuries take quite a toll on an individual’s life, preventing them from working, taking care of their loved ones, and enjoying life in general. David has helped various individuals get through their injuries and receive the compensation they deserve.

Ottawa Personal Injury Lawyer David Hollingsworth has been helping slip and fall injury victims get the help they need after a serious Ontario accident.  Due to his vast experience with injuries, David understands the added pressure and stress associated with this personal injury.  David aggressively fights to get the maximum amount of compensation needed to ensure you are taken care of and that you are able to rebuild you life, as it was before the accident.  David takes his cases on contingency, which means, you don’t pay him anything, until he gets you your money.  Call for a free consultation 613-978-9549.

Operation Red Nose  Ottawa is operated entirely by volunteers and has no paid employees. Donations and sponsorship supporting Boys and Girls Club Ottawa are the sole source of funding.

Ottawa pedestrian accident Montreal road results in wrongful death.

Ottawa Personal Injury Lawyer, Ottawa Accident Attorney David Hollingsworth — An Ottawa woman was sadly killed last night  when she was hit by a vehicle at Ottawa’s intersection of Montreal Road and Foxview Place at  7:30 p.m. Ottawa paramedics  transported the Ottawa accident victim to the Montfort Hospital, where tragically she was pronounced dead. The accident victim was crossing the street from the south side to the north side of Montreal Road when she was hit by an oncoming car.  It was reported by an observer that his  own car, a Toyota Corolla, likely blocked the view of the driver who hit the pedestrian, leaving the driver with little or no time to react. He also reported that it was too dark and happened very quickly and therefore difficult to get a good look at the Ottawa pedestrian. He was only able to say the pedestrian was wearing a red coat and a hat. Ottawa police are investigating  the Ottawa pedestrian accident. My thoughts go out to the friends and family of the deceased accident victim.

Ottawa Accident Lawyer David Hollingsworth. Tragically, a 17-year-old girl died as the result of a Kanata accident near the OC Transpo park and ride on Eagleson Road this morning. Young 17 year old Serena Dang was tragically hit by a pickup truck at around 10:30 a.m. Sadly, the teenager sustained critical, life-threatening personal injuries and was taken to the Ottawa Hospital trauma centre at the civic campus and later died from her personal injuries.

My thoughts go out to the family and friends of Serena Dang.  What a tragedy..
