LEGAL FEES & DISBURSEMENTS
The onus is on your lawyer to explain the cost of his or her legal services. A client should not have to ask. One of the most important elements of a good solicitor-client relationship is an up-front understanding of legal costs. More importantly, a client who has a firm understanding of legal costs is a client who is better prepared to decide on a course of action and instruct his or her lawyer on how to proceed. The fact of the matter is that when a client is facing his or her legal options, legal costs are an integral part of his or her decision.
BEWARE OF DEADLINES AFFECTING YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS
In an attempt to bring some order to the legal system, the legislators have imposed deadlines on injured individuals who wish to enforce their legal rights and seek their legal remedies. First, there is a deadline to give a legal notice of the injury to the party who is responsible for the injury and secondly, there is a deadline to draft and issue the formal legal claim at the courthouse.
If you miss a deadline, you risk losing your legal rights and you may be barred from making your legal claims.
Judges are not generally in favour of extending a deadline that has been imposed by the provincial or federal legislators. This may seem harsh or unfair, however you must protect yourself and take steps to enforce your rights and seek the legal remedies to which you are entitled.
If you have been injured, we strongly recommend that you contact a lawyer. Do not wait.
CONSULTATION
With respect to personal injury claims, we offer a no-obligation consultation to help an injured party assess his or her injury and the consequential legal rights and remedies.
In many cases we offer a Contingency Fee Agreement which permits a client (without spending any of his or her money) to take legal action against a Party who is responsible for his or her injury.
When put in place, our Contingency Fee Agreement compensates us for our legal services in accordance with our success and guarantees the injured client does not pay anything if we are unsuccessful. No costs are passed on to the client. All legal costs incurred for such things such as expert medical reports and expert loss of income reports are borne by our firm no matter what the outcome.
