The Personal Injury Claim Process: Step-by-Step Guide
We understand that filing a personal injury claim can feel overwhelming. That’s why we’ve simplified the process into five clear steps to guide you through your legal journey.
- Free Consultation: The first step is a free consultation where we assess your case and determine the best strategy.
- Filing the Statement of Claim: This official document is filed in court to start your case, outlining the details of your injury and the compensation you’re seeking.
- Gathering Evidence: We’ll work with medical professionals, accident investigators, and other experts to build a strong case for your compensation claim.
- Mediation and Negotiation: Many personal injury claims are resolved through negotiations with insurance companies. We aim to secure the highest settlement possible without the need for a lengthy trial.
- Trial (If Necessary): If a fair settlement can’t be reached, our lawyers will represent you in court and fight for the best outcome.
How Long Will My Personal Injury Case Take in Calgary?
The timeline for a personal injury case varies depending on the complexity of the claim, but here’s what you can typically expect:
- Initial consultation and filing: The process begins with your free consultation and the filing of your claim. This stage can take a few weeks.
- Evidence collection and negotiations: This is the most time-consuming part of the process, lasting anywhere from several months to over a year. The more complicated the case, the longer this phase will take.
- Trial preparation: If your case goes to trial, preparation can take several months depending on the court schedule.
At Merchant Law Group, we work diligently to move cases forward as quickly as possible while ensuring we secure the best outcome for you.
What Compensation Can I Expect for My Personal Injury in Calgary?
