Litigation - Personal Injury

At Basman Smith, we understand how vulnerable clients feel when they have been badly injured in a motor vehicle accident, slip and fall or other personal mishap. In addition to dealing with complicated medical issues, clients often face a loss of income, and an inability to participate in the family and social activities they once enjoyed. Personal injury litigation requires perseverance, compassion and dedication. We will bring these qualities and our extensive experience to bear on your case. Basman Smith lawyers are well versed in the intricacies of the Insurance Act and the Statutory Accident Benefits Schedule. Issues of negligence, causation and pre-existing injuries are commonplace and do not deter our litigators from pursuing a just and reasonable result. We are also well experienced in helping clients deal with insurers over disability claims as well as handling medical malpractice or other professional malpractice issues. Professional Negligence Unfortunately, errors and mistakes can happen but if the professional who advised you was negligent, you may have a claim against them. Professionals can include your lawyer, your accountant, your engineer, your financial adviser, your dentist, your counsellor, or any other professional that you have retained or hired to perform a service for you. The litigators at Basman Smith LLP can assist you in discerning whether or not you have a claim. Our litigators can provide high quality and responsive advice on professional liability matters and particularly in regard to litigation relating to lawyer’s negligence. Several of the lawyers at Basman Smith LLP are preferred counsel approved by LawPRO. Basman Smith LLP can also provide advice on matters related to the assessment of lawyer's accounts.
