In an Ottawa Accident Without Insurance?

I was injured in an Ottawa accident where I was driving without proper insurance on my car.  Can I sue?

Even if you did not cause the Ottawa car accident, you cannot usually advance a claim or sue the at-fault party if you were knowingly driving without insurance.   Whether or not you were “knowingly” without insurance is something you should discuss with a personal injury lawyer if you have suffered serious injuries.

However, you may still be entitled to accident benefits, medical, rehabilitation and attendant care benefits.

If you suffered serious injuries and had no insurance, request a personal injury consultation by calling 613 233-4529.
