Understanding the Roadmap of a Personal Injury Lawsuit in Ontario
Navigating a personal injury lawsuit can feel overwhelming, but understanding the process helps reduce stress and empowers you to make informed decisions. At Auger Hollingsworth, we simplify the process and stand by your side every step of the way. Here’s what to expect:
- Gathering Evidence – We compile all documents, witness accounts, medical and work records, and may retain investigators or medical experts to assess your injuries and losses.
- Filing the Lawsuit – Our team prepares and files a Statement of Claim to initiate your case in court.
- Examinations for Discovery – Both you and the other party will be questioned under oath about the accident and its impact.
- Interim Motions – Occasionally, the court needs to rule on issues before trial—these are known as interim motions.
- Review and Strategy – Based on evidence gathered, we assess your case’s strengths and weaknesses and advise on a fair compensation range.
- Mediation/Negotiation – We often settle cases out of court through mediation, a confidential and cost-effective alternative to trial.
- Trial Preparation – If settlement is not possible, we prepare your case for trial with expert reports, exhibits, and witness preparation.
- Trial – Our experienced litigators represent you in court, fighting for the compensation you deserve.
Every case is unique, but our process is thorough, transparent, and designed to maximize your outcome. We’ve represented thousands of injured Ontarians and achieved life-changing results.
