How We Can Assist
Workplace injuries in Ontario are governed by the Workplace Safety and Insurance Act. Those in charge of workplaces have a duty of care to ensure that they are safe for all who enter the premises. Tincap injury lawyers can conduct independent investigations into the circumstances and fix the liability on those responsible for your accident. There may be multiple at-fault parties.
Dealing with insurance companies making the settlement pay-out can be challenging. In the case of permanent disability long-term life-care compensation may be required. Insurance companies and claims adjusters, even your own, may adopt delaying, denying or dismissive tactics to compel you to lower the figure quoted as settlement, or they may dispute the facts as presented.
