Who May Be Legally Responsible

- A manufacturer of a defective product
- Determining responsibility can be complex. We assess liability carefully before advancing a claim.
How Personal Injury Claims Work in Alberta
Most injury claims start with a notice to the insurance company soon after the accident. There are important deadlines and legal requirements that must be met. Insurance companies will often investigate quickly and may attempt to minimize or refuse your claim.

- Communicate with the insurer so you don’t have to
- Understand Alberta injury law and timelines
