If I hire a lawyer, will it negatively impact my ICBC claim?
No. It would be considered highly illegal and unethical for an adjuster to treat you differently, or minimize your benefits because you retain legal counsel. Hiring a lawyer is not an aggressive action of intimidation, it is rather a move to level the playing field and help inform you of your rights after an accident.
How can an accident lawyer help me with ICBC?
Your local legal team can help maximize your claim and make sure your rights are protected during the claim process. A skilled legal team can preserve crucial evidence after an accident and present the details of your case in a way that translates effectively into financial compensation.
If I was partly or wholly at fault for an auto accident, am I entitled to ICBC benefits?
You most likely will still be entitled to recover a benefit amount because ICBC policies contain “no fault benefits.” Contact a skilled Vancouver personal injury lawyer for more information on entitlement.
I was injured in an accident while on vacation. Who will pay my claim?

Is there a statute of limitation on auto accident claims?
Yes – according to B.C. law, accident victims have 2 years from the accident date to file a lawsuit in order to prosecute their claim. However, we recommend that you consult a lawyer early on, while evidence and details are new and fresh in people’s memories, and to secure the maximum recovery amount.
