In this video, Andrew and Colton, personal injury lawyers with Iacobelli Law Firm, discuss how damages are assessed in personal injury cases in Ontario. They cover the categories of damages that can be recovered, including pain and suffering, economic losses such as income loss and loss of competitive advantage, and expenses such as medical bills and household assistance.
Learn about how lawyers, insurance companies and judges assess damages for your harms and losses and how much you can potentially recover depending on your case. There are many categories of compensation that can be recovered with the pain and suffering award being the most common one people think about.
Also referred to as loss of enjoyment of life. Andrew and Colton will talk about how they look at each case individually in order to tell the story and calculate the potential value of the case. How has the accident harmed you in terms of your health? What have you gone through? Is it a severe injury? Have you required surgery? What are the longer term ramifications to your health?
In Ontario, there are caps or limits to pain and suffering awards. As lawyers, they will discuss how they look at the specific injury, the harm, the losses in addition to taking into account the case law, the caps and be able to give you a pretty good sense of where they see the pain and suffering award.
