Yes, a personal injury lawyer can withdraw from your case if:
- The lawyer's continued representation will lead to a breach of the Law Society of Ontario's professional conduct rules
- Your instructions are inconsistent with the lawyer's duty to the court
- You are guilty of dishonourable conduct in the proceedings
- You are pursuing the case solely to injure another
A personal injury lawyer can also withdraw from your case if you seek to deceive your lawyer or if you choose not to heed critical advice.
No, you are not legally required to hire a personal injury lawyer for a claim, though it is advisable that you do. Your lawyer will bring more than just legal knowledge; they will bring invaluable experience preparing a claim in a way that maximizes its chances of success and the compensation you will receive. Lawyers also offer objective advice, allowing you to make well-reasoned decisions regarding your claim, helping resolve disputes faster.
If there is a Contingency Fee Retainer agreement in place, there should not be any up-front costs to you; rather, a lawyer is paid upon successful resolution of the case. There is no fixed fee that personal injury lawyers in Ontario must charge. That said, the Law Society of Ontario offers guidance that a lawyer's fee must be fair and reasonable. A lawyer's fee can vary on a wide range of factors, including:
- Number of years in the profession
- Experience in your area of personal injury
- Track record of success
- Resources the lawyer or personal injury law firm offers
There are several things you should consider when choosing the right personal injury law firm or lawyer for your case:
- Reputation � See if they have been recognized in legal publications, in the news, or by their peers and former clients
- Track record � Ask what kind of successes they've had representing clients
- Client testimonials � Hear what former clients have to say about the lawyers
Many lawyers offer a complimentary initial consultation; use that opportunity to understand what the team is like and whether you are confident in their ability to represent your interests.
Hiring a personal injury lawyer is a serious decision because not only will they represent your legal interests, they will be your guides throughout the claims process. Make sure you take the time to speak to the lawyers you will be working with. Your personal injury lawyer should not only demonstrate extensive legal knowledge, but also care and compassion; this is a difficult time, and you deserve counsel that will treat you with respect and dedication, not just another file.
Insurance companies and healthcare providers have teams of lawyers whose sole purpose is to reduce and defeat claims. That is exactly why having experienced personal injury lawyers matters. Your lawyers will know how to prepare your claim so it has the strongest possible chance of success while maximizing the compensation available to you.
A traumatic accident throws the victim and their family into unfamiliar territory. Medical bills are piling up and your personal and professional life is disrupted. During that period of emotional upheaval, you are still expected to make rational decisions.
That is where personal injury lawyers can help. The best lawyers will not only guide you through the claims process, help assert your rights, fight for your compensation, and shield you from unfair scrutiny, they will also connect you with respected medical professionals so you can access the care and attention you need to recover.
Depending on the nature and seriousness of your injuries, personal injury lawyers will:
- Gather evidence that supports your claim
- Investigate liability and damages in your case
- Assist with insurance claims
- Draft, file, and prosecute the civil lawsuit
- Ensure you receive the accident benefits you are entitled to
- Represent you at negotiations, mediation, and before the courts
- Help secure compensation in a timely manner once the matter resolves
- Guide you through the legal implications of the accident and your injury
- Support your road to recovery
Your lawyers will guide you throughout the claims process, which is why it is so important to feel confident about the team you choose.
Though everyone has slightly different expectations of their lawyer, here are a few questions you should get answered:
- Have you represented people with accidents similar to mine?
- What is the strategy to pursue fair compensation in my case?
- Who exactly will be working on my file?
- How much is your fee, and do you offer a contingency fee arrangement?
- What is your track record for success?
Yes. If you feel your relationship with your lawyer is deteriorating, you can make a change while your case or claim is ongoing. First, you will need to identify a new lawyer willing to take on your matter. After that, your new and former lawyers will come to an agreement regarding fees and costs, and the file materials will be transferred.
Clear communication with your lawyer is always best, because trust and communication are key parts of a successful client-lawyer relationship, and they are something we take seriously.
Our team of personal injury lawyers
I suffered some nasty slip and fall injuries during the fall of 2013, and had seen the name Neinstein Personal Injury Lawyers over the internet, so I decided to call there for assistance. That was a decision I am so happy to have made. From the beginning, my lawyer... was respectful, available, attentive, knowledgeable, resourceful, professional, gave great advice, and kept me fully informed throughout the process.
