Frequently Asked Questions
Most of our clients have never been injured in an auto accident and they have never had to deal with the legal system before getting hurt. We've collected some of the most frequently asked questions about car accidents, personal injury, and what to do after your accident. If you have any unanswered questions, give us a call at (403) 571-0555 for a free consultation of your rights.
What should I do if I get involved in a motor vehicle accident?
If you have been involved in an accident, you should:
– Seek medical assistance immediately.
– Try to obtain details of the parties involved in the accident including their name, address, phone number and insurance policy. If any witnesses are present, get their details as well.
– Report your accident to the police within 24 hours of the accident. Inform your insurer that you have been injured in an accident within 7 days of your accident.
– Get legal Representation as soon as possible and speak to one of our lawyers
Do I really need a lawyer? Won’t the insurance company settle with me directly?
Without an experienced Motor Vehicle Accident and Personal Injury Lawyer on your side, there’s a high chance of you not getting the settlement you deserve for your injuries. Insurance companies will try to deal with you directly, but their goal is to process claims quickly with the smallest payout possible.
The best course of action is to talk with one of our personal injury lawyers as soon as possible after an accident, and avoid direct discussions with the insurance company.
If you’ve been dealing directly with an insurance company and they have made an offer, it’s highly recommended to speak with a lawyer to get a professional opinion on whether it’s a fair offer or not.
We’re happy to provide a free, no-cost evaluation of what your claim is worth.
When should I see a lawyer?
Alberta legislation mandates certain timelines and limitations which need to be met in order to advance a claim. A failure to comply with these limits may be damaging or prejudicial to your claim and in some circumstances may bar you from bringing any action.
In these circumstances, you will need trustworthy and reliable legal representation.
At Szakacs Law, we will provide professional and expert legal advice and representation for every step of your claim, so that you can focus on your recovery.
How much does a lawyer charge?
Legal fees can be very costly and some law firms may require a retainer of hundreds, or even thousands of dollars to work on your file. At Szakacs Law, we operate on a “no-win, no-fee” arrangement. This means that there are zero upfront fees, and you only pay us when you get paid.
How long will it take to resolve my claim?
It is difficult to approximate exact timelines as to when your case will resolve. A number of different factors will be relevant if we are to appreciate the length of time it will take.
These include the following:
– The cause of injury, if it is a (MVA) motor vehicle accident
– The nature of your injury – whether it is minor or complex injury and whether it is temporary or permanent and ongoing
– How long you take to obtain legal advice
– The applicability of legal time limitations
If your injuries are minor and they heal quickly, a claim could be settled within a few months. If your injuries are more serious and take more time to heal, the time frame for making a claim and reaching settlement is extended.
We advise our personal injury clients that in nearly all situations, making a quick settlement is not likely to be in your best interest.
No matter how long it takes to settle your claim, you won’t be required to pay us any fees, and we will cover any necessary expert, medical, or investigation fees relevant to your case. The majority of litigation costs and out of pocket expenses will be billed to and paid by the at-fault insurance company, in most cases.
How long do I have to sue?
For the most part, a third party claim must be commenced within 2 years of your accident. There are few exceptions to this rule, one of our lawyers can tell you if one of the exceptions applies to you.
What do I do with letters from the insurance company?
The insurer will be made aware that you are being represented for your Claim. Although we are copied on every correspondence sent to our clients, it is important that you review these letters to keep up to date on the status of your file. Ensure that you are not responding directly to the insurer when receiving these letters. Any requests made by the insurer will be handled by our firm. If we require additional information from you, you will be contacted by your legal representative directly.
During your free consultation, We will help you determine...
1. Do you have a case?
We will help you determine whether you are eligible for compensation and answer your questions.
2. What is your case worth?
We will assess your situation and help you determine the potential value of your case.
3. How to deal with the insurance companies
Pursuing such matters on your own can often result in underpayment from the insurance company. We will advise you on how to best deal with them.
4. How to navigate the legal system
The legal process can be quite confusing, especially if you haven’t been in such an accident before. We are here to help you and guide you through it all.
