Ottawa Lawyers : Ottawa Accident Albion Road = death and personal injury
Posted by Ottawa Personal Injury Lawyer, Ottawa Accident Lawyer, David Hollingsworth in Ottawa Car Accidents, Ottawa Injury and Accidents on May 9th, 2010
Ottawa Accident Lawyer David Hollingsworth – Ottawa Personal Injury Lawyer- I am truly sorry to everyone involved in this Ottawa accident which resulted in death and serious personal injury. Losing two 18 year olds is a very sad event. My wishes go out to the families of these young men. I also wish a healthy and full recovery to the other accident victims of this terrible Ottawa accident….
Two 18 year old men died after the Pontiac Sunfire they were riding in collided with a Hyundai Santa Fe SUV just after 7:30 p.m last night on Albion Road. Of the 4 people in the SUV, the most serious personal injury was an 82-year-old woman, who was found semi-conscious in critical condition with head injuries and was rushed to hospital where her condition was upgraded to serious, but stable upon arrival. A 56-year-old woman suffered severe chest trauma and a possible fractured sternum. She was in serious, but stable condition. The 67-year-old man driving the Santa Fe suffered head, neck, abdominal and shoulder injury, and a 61-year-old woman suffered orthopedic injury- a fractured wrist. Both were taken to hospital in stable condition. None of the names of the crash victims have been released.
Ottawa police say driver error is likely to blame for a weekend crash on Albion Road that claimed the lives of two high school students.
Ottawa Accident Update: Speed and alcohol were ruled out as factors in the accident, which happened Saturday night when a Pontiac Sunfire driven by David Stringer, 17, and carrying passenger Jonathan Jackson, 18, collided with a Hyndai Santa Fe. Both teens in the Sunfire were killed. Four passengers in the Santa Fe were taken to hospital and are listed in stable condition. The Sunfire was travelling southbound on Albion about 300 metres south of Rideau Road at about 7:40 p.m. Police say Stringer might have veered into the highway’s narrow gravel shoulder and while attempting to correct, steered into the oncoming lane. Friends of the two teens came to the accident site to say goodbye. “Not all of us are religious, but we know Jonathan and David were both very religious so we said a little prayer for them,” said Kadry Lawrence. Set to graduate from Merivale High School this year, Stringer was active in musical theatre and held a black belt in karate. Jackson, a student at John McCrae Secondary school, was a popular student involved in charitable work. He spent a year in Haiti with his family working with the poor. The school board said a tragic events reponse team has been put in place to provide assistance, counselling and support to students and staff this week. “Our community is in mourning,” said a statement issued by the board. “We will support each other in this time of need.”

Ottawa Accident Lawyer, Ottawa Personal Injury Lawyer David Hollingsworth-
Good news Ottawa ! The city is going to be looking closely at some of the most dangerous Ottawa accident intersections. In Ottawa, Ontario between 2004 and 2009 in Ottawa, there were 1,600 pedestrian-related Ottawa accidents resulting in personal injury. The Pedestrian Safety Evaluation Program aims to target 23 of the most collision-prone Ottawa intersections and make improvements for Ottawa’s pedestrian safety. The Carling-Holland intersection, which relies on a complex sequence of 14 separate lights, along with the intersection of Donald Street and Vanier Parkway will be the first to see changes.
Let’s hope we can make Ottawa a safer place and avoid as many Ottawa accidents as possible !

Posted by Ottawa Personal Injury Lawyer, Ottawa Accident Lawyer, David Hollingsworth in Brain Injury / Head Injury on February 8th, 2010
Ottawa Brain Injury Lawyer David Hollingsworth explains what to expect if your child suffers from a traumatic brain injury in Ontario.
As a parents, we all do anything in our power to protect our children from harm, but we can’t protect them from everything. What would you do if your child suffered a serious personal injury from an accident? It could be that your child was in a serious accident and suffered a traumatic brain injury (TBI) What would you do?
The following are some of the things you can do and expect if your child has suffered a Brain Injury…
Injury to children, especially personal injury to the brain, is very serious and can be even more serious then similar brain injury to an adult accident victim because their small bodies are still developing and a traumatic brain injury (TBI) can cause disabilities in their functions, movements, speech or thought development process. If you suspect that child has suffered a brain injury your first step is to get medical help. Talk to your doctor; preferably a pediatrician-although they seem to be hard to find these days. If possible, find a doctor that specializes in children and one experienced in children brain injury. You may need the help of a neurology or neurological psychiatric specialist who can explain to you all of the facts regarding treatment options, surgery, and rehabilitation for a child brain injury. From there, you will know your options and how best to help a children brain injury.
A personal injury claim that involves a Traumatic Brain Injury is a highly specialized area and requires an experienced Ontario brain injury lawyer. I’m not going to lie to you.

An Ottawa personal injury lawyer or Ottawa brain injury lawyer will seek compensation for you and your child to assist in recovery.
The difficulty with a brain injury is that it is often an “invisible injury”. This becomes even more difficult when it is a child brain injury, as often times the child is too young to verbalize their symptoms. A traumatic brain injury is often times a life altering personal injury and requires ongoing medical treatments and care. That is why it is particularly important that one receives adequate compensation for future years to come and this is where an experienced Ottawa brain injury lawyer is critical. Your Ottawa brain injury lawyer will be able to help you with not only securing your financial future, they can help you develop the life care plan. You owe it to yourself and your child to speak to the right Ottawa brain injury lawyer and do this properly. Your child has been through enough. You have been through enough.

Tailgating- major cause of Ottawa car accidents, Ottawa lawyer reports..
Posted by Ottawa Personal Injury Lawyer, Ottawa Accident Lawyer, David Hollingsworth in Ottawa Car Accidents, Ottawa Resources, safety on January 8th, 2010
Ottawa Car Accident Lawyer David Hollingsworth reports..
The Ottawa Police have a new year’s resolution to target tailgating and those who failto obey stop signs. For the month of Janueary, the city of Ottawa and Ottawa police, will focus on drivers who follow the vehicle ahead too closely and those who don’t stop properly at stop signs. Tailgating caused 4,716 rear-end collisions in 2007 — the most frequent type of crash accounting for one-third of Ottawa’s car accidents. These collisions resulted in 4 Ottawa wrongful deaths and 1,470 Ottawa personal injuries — 17 of them life-threatening. Meanwhile, drivers who failed to stop at stop signs caused close to 1,700 Ottawa car accidnts in 2007, resulting in 8 wrongful deaths and 588 personal injuries — 27 of them life-threatening.
It seems pretty simple to me. Keep your distance- it’s a very easy way to save lives and avoid personal injury.
