Injury Claims / ICBC

Car accidents

If you are injured in a motor vehicle accident, call today for a free consultation. We can assist you in achieving a proper and fair resolution to your claim.  If you are involved in an accident, you may be entitled to compensation for pain and suffering, out-of-pocket expenses, lost wages and loss of future earning potential.

Successful claim will require that the other driver is at least partially liable for the accident. Also a passenger in a vehicle may claim against the driver of the vehicle that they were in.

Do not be under the misapprehension that ICBC adjusters are working on your side to provide you with a fair settlement. An ICBC adjuster’s job is to minimize costs for ICBC. ICBC may unfairly blame the accident partially on you. They may also use medical experts to minimize your injury claim. Though the adjuster will be referred to as "your adjuster", they are in fact employed by ICBC and therefore have a conflict of interest. They do not work for you. This is the reason to consult a lawyer before dealing with ICBC.

We can help you by working on your side to maximize your claim.
