What is Personal Injury
Personal Injury is the legal term used to describe any form of injury to an individual’s physical body, mind or emotions caused by the careless actions or negligence of another.
Often, it’s more than just physical, or emotional harm. Personal injury suites can include demands for medical costs, lost wages, transportation and other expenses. Occasionally it can include damage to property, but that’s often a sepparate suit.

Personal Injury Laws in Alberta
There are many, and they are complicated. But that’s why we are here.
Every province has its own set of personal injury laws. It would be impossible to cover every single possibility, so Alberta uses a combination of statuses and case law for guidance. Most can be found in Alberta’s Minor Injury Regulation book.
What is Negligence?
Negligence lies at the heart of most personal injury lawsuits. Our job is to identify who is responsible for an accident and show that their negligence caused your injuries.
Negligence is defined as failing to fulfill a duty to another person. It’s the core reason for most personal injury accidents. It doesn’t necessarily mean someone intentionally harmed you. However, if someone doesn’t take reasonable steps to ensure his/her actions don’t endanger, injure or cause damage to anyone else, then that person has committed negligence.
Personal Injury Process
When you call Assiff Law injury lawyers, we immediately work on recovering compensation for your injuries.
Consult with an Edmonton Injury Lawyer
The first step is to speak with an experienced personal injury lawyer near you.
Our lawyers will review the details of your situation and your understanding of events — your side of the story — so we can determine whether there is any basis for a lawsuit. Then, once you’re ready to move forward, we’ll help you develop a strategy for pursuing compensation.
If we take your case, the process may look something like this:
Gather Evidence
A thorough investigation is the foundation of every case we take on. We use police reports, medical reports, and eyewitnesses’ statements to get to the bottom of things.
Send a Demand Letter
We’ll write a demand letter to the individual responsible for the accident, and their insurance company. We consider the entire financial impact of the situation, including provisions for future medical bills, lost wages, and other related costs.
File a personal injury lawsuit
When an insurance company refuses to offer an acceptable settlement, we gain leverage by filing a lawsuit on your behalf. In addition, filing a lawsuit will provide us access to additional information from the defendants that we otherwise wouldn’t have access to.
Discovery
After filing the suit, we can ask defendants for information that they might have been hesitant to provide. We can use these requests for admissions, interrogatories, and requests for production of documents to learn what evidence they have to support their claims.
Mediation
Once both parties have looked at the facts of the situation, we can schedule a mediation to help resolve the dispute. This gives us the chance to present our side of the story to the defendant’s attorney, and negotiate a fair resolution.
Settlement
If we’re able to reach an agreement prior to the start of the lawsuit, then we’ve reached a settlement. A settlement should take into account all past and future medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, etc., and will be paid out in one lump sum in return for you dropping the case.
Personal Injury Trial
If we are unable to settle for a fair amount, we go to trial. During the trial we present your case, employing the evidence we uncovered during discovery and present any expert testimony.
Appeal
What if the jury finds against you? If some sort of legal mistake was made by the defense team or the judge, we might choose to appeal. We would likely have to provide additional evidence and legal arguments in support of our position. If we were successful, the judge could overturn the previous ruling, or require another round of trials.
