What is the potential impact of a serious personal injury?
Everyone handles injuries differently depending on many factors. For some, a whiplash injury might be nothing more than a slight inconvenience and a day off work. For others, it can mean a long-term course of painkillers, rehabilitation, and weeks or months without earning an income.
It is not fair to have to suffer a major impact from an injury that was not your fault. That’s why the lawyers at Auger Hollingsworth will not rest until we get you a reasonable settlement for your losses.
This generally includes not only the medical costs you have incurred but also the pain and suffering you have experienced and any current or future loss of earnings caused by your accident injuries.
What to do if you were involved in a personal injury accident?
If you suffer injuries from an accident in Mississauga, you need to first understand who is liable for it. This is the crucial first step in any potential personal injury claim because liability for the accident and the resulting injuries will determine what happens next and how strong your claim is.
Your personal injury lawyer can handle the entire process from an initial case evaluation through to when payment hits your account.
Proving liability
Your initial meeting with your lawyer involves fact-finding and research.
A personal injury lawyer will evaluate your case, find out the facts and the evidence available and determine liability. If a third party is liable for your injuries, the litigation process will begin and communication with the insurance company will start.
At this stage, the insurance company of the liable party may deny liability or attempt to shift some of the fault onto other parties or you. We are familiar with the types of tricks and strategies used by insurance companies and will be ready to defend your interests.
Our lawyers will uncover all of the facts surrounding your accident, gather evidence from the accident scene (if it is still intact), interview any witnesses, and identify your injuries and associated costs – both now and in the future, if applicable.
What is your role in this process?
Ideally, you do as little as possible. You can leave most of the requirements for documentation and communication to our team while you focus on recovery from your injuries.
Occasionally, we will need to ask you for information to back up your claim. For instance, employment records and wage slips to prove loss of earnings or medical reports to prove the extent of your injuries.

The interview also discusses what information you should collect at the accident scene before you leave. Get the other driver’s name, address and driver’s license. Wait for the police if they have been called.
It is also important to get medical attention as quickly as possible. It is easier to prove your injury was caused by the accident if you see a medical doctor as soon as possible after the accident.
What compensation can you expect to claim in Mississauga?
While it is impossible to put an exact figure on what you can claim in your case without knowing more, the types of personal injury compensation that you may be entitled to are generally the following:
- All medical costs resulting from your injuries – including emergency care, ambulance, surgical costs, hospital visits, etc.
- All medication you require as a result of your injuries
- Any rehabilitative care or therapy required
- The costs of repairing or replacing damaged property
- Pain and suffering resulting from your injuries
- Any loss of earnings (past, present and future)
The strength of the legal case and supporting evidence you put forward will determine the likelihood of a successful outcome when claiming these damages.
As well as compensation from an at-fault party, your own accident insurance provider can provide financial assistance in many cases. The extent of the compensation you receive will depend on whether or not your injury is classed as a “catastrophic impairment” injury.
Catastrophic impairment compensation from the insurance company could be up to a million dollars plus other benefits. A non-catastrophic impairment injury, on the other hand, may be subject to a maximum claim of $65,000 in Ontario.
