BRAIN INJURY
Each year over 7,000 Ontarians are hospitalized for brain injuries, many of which are caused by the negligent actions of a third party. Brain injuries can have a profound impact on an individual’s life. Our lawyers will help you understand your options following a traumatic brain injury, advocate on your behalf, and help you put together a strong case against any liable third parties.
SPINAL INJURY
Spinal injuries can result from a wide range of accidents, from a simple slip in a grocery store to a serious car accident. The long-term consequences of a spinal injury can be life-altering. Our dedicated team of personal injury lawyers is committed to providing comprehensive support to individuals with spinal injuries, ensuring they receive the necessary medical treatments, rehabilitation, and fighting for fair compensation.
ORTHOPAEDIC INJURIES
Orthopaedic injuries, such as fractures and broken bones, are the most common injuries following an accident, accounting for over 80,000 hospitalizations in Ontario each year. Each orthopaedic injury case is going to have a unique set of challenges, medical treatments, and steps for rehabilitation. Our lawyers are dedicated to helping ensure that you can get the care you deserve and are compensated fairly for your losses.
WRONGFUL DEATH
Losing a loved one due to someone else’s negligence is devastating. Unfortunately, if you have lost a loved one due to an accident or negligent action of another party, the mourning period can become intertwined with a complex legal case. Our personal injury lawyers help families navigate these complexities, seeking justice and fair compensation for wrongful death, including funeral expenses, loss of financial support, and emotional suffering.
CAR ACCIDENTS
In Ontario, all vehicles are required to meet minimum insurance requirements. One part of the required insurance is statutory accident benefits. This means that all parties injured in a car accident are entitled to at least some compensation for their injuries. Depending on the case, you may be entitled to further compensation by filing a tort claim against the other driver or another responsible party.
Our lawyers can help you file insurance claims, challenge insurance decisions, and navigate the whole tort claim process. We are here to carry the burden of seeking financial compensation after a car accident so you can focus on your well-being and the logistics of repairing your vehicle.
PEDESTRIAN ACCIDENTS
In Canada, around 300 pedestrians are involved in motor vehicle accidents each year, and they are often catastrophic for the individuals involved. Our personal injury lawyers are here to fight for the rights of pedestrians injured in an accident. We can help you with insurance claims and with assessing whether the involved parties were negligent in their duty of care as drivers.
BIKE ACCIDENTS
In big cities and small towns alike, many people rely on bicycles as a mode of transportation or exercise. Of course, cyclists are vulnerable to accidents and injuries on the road as well. Zayouna Law Firm’s personal injury law extends to bicycle accidents as well as motor vehicle accidents, helping cyclists pursue compensation for their injuries, damages, and other losses.
MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENTS
According to a report in the Canadian Medical Association Journal, motorcyclists are three times more likely to get injured in an accident and 10 times more likely to be seriously injured. Our personal injury lawyers are here to support motorcyclists following an accident, by helping with insurance claims or legal proceedings necessary to file a tort claim or challenge an insurance decision.
TRUCK ACCIDENTS
When large commercial vehicles collide with personal passenger vehicles, the damage can be devastating. Often in these cases, the truck driver is left relatively unharmed while the drivers and passengers in the other vehicles are left with life-changing injuries. Seek the legal guidance of an experienced personal injury lawyer to help you seek compensation after a serious truck accident.
SLIP AND FALL ACCIDENTS
Unintentional fall accidents account for roughly one-third of hospital visits in Canada. Slip and fall accidents on private or public property may be caused by the negligent management of the property owner or manager. If you have been involved in a slip and fall accident in Ontario, let our team of personal injury lawyers help you determine if you have a case against the property manager so you aren’t left paying for medical bills out of pocket.
FAULTY PRODUCT & PRODUCT LIABILITY
We hold manufacturers and distributors accountable for their products. If you have been injured due to a faulty product, our experienced personal injury lawyers can help you seek compensation for injuries caused by defective or dangerous items.
SNOWMOBILE ACCIDENTS
Snowmobiling is a popular winter activity, but it comes with inherent risks. If you have been injured in a snowmobile accident due to the reckless or negligent behaviour of others, our experienced personal injury lawyers are here to help.
