Annette Lefebvre Avocats obtains compensation for individuals who have been seriously injured as a result of carelessness, or the irresponsible behaviour of another person, organisation or business.
The most common categories of personal injury include:
- Slip and Fall
- Slip and Fall describes a situation where one cannot walk safely without falling. It can occur indoors or outdoors. The general rule of law is that the land owner has a duty to keep his property in a reasonably safe condition.
- Premises Liability
- Premises liability cases arise from injuries occurring in a variety of settings such as commercial buildings, shopping centers, parking facilities, hotels, airports, restaurants, or schools.
- The general rule of law is that the owner or operator of the premises has a duty to keep the premises in reasonably safe condition or at least warn customers of the dangerous condition of which the owner caused, knew about, or should have known about.
- Examples such as a slippery or wet floor, broken steps, lack of adequate security, and improper protection of the public near constructions sites are all possible traps causing injury.
- Animal Attacks
- An unrestrained dog that viciously attacks children or adults can cause catastrophic injuries. In most cases the dog owner will be financially responsible when they have not taken necessary steps to restrain or supervise their dogs.
Compensation for personal injuries is based upon the degree to which your injuries were cause by the fault of someone else, as well as the nature, extent and degree of permanence of the injury.
