How a Personal Injury Lawyer Helps

Every day in British Columbia and Alberta there are literally hundreds of motor vehicle accidents which give rise to personal injury claims.  A personal injury claims lawyer from the MacIsaac Group can assist the innocent victims of those accidents to obtain full and fair compensation.

The law in British Columbia and Alberta requires that the injured person prove fault on the part of the other motorist.  Your MacIsaac Group personal injury claims lawyer has the required skill to ensure that your case is prepared in the proper legal manner.

There are time limits in which to bring a claim for compensation and accident benefits; your personal injury claims lawyer can advise you of the limitations in effect in your case.

There are cases involving claims for compensation for personal injuries where your personal injury claims lawyer can settle your claim directly with the insurance adjuster, without the need to commence a lawsuit. In many other cases, however, your personal injury claims lawyer will find it necessary to file papers and commence a lawsuit. This does not mean that your case will in fact end up being tried in a courtroom. Only about 10 percent of cases actually get to trial.

The MacIsaac Group personal injury claims lawyers use a team approach in pursuing personal injury claims. Lawyers in the MacIsaac Group have available the services of other lawyers in the group as well as the services of specialized investigators and consultants who also have extensive experience in personal injury claims. Lawyers in the MacIsaac Group have acted for literally thousands of people from all over North America who have been injured in traffic accidents.  Collectively, your MacIsaac Group personal injury claims lawyers have well over 300 years of legal experience.
