Statutory Accident Benefits

What are “no-fault” benefits?

Statutory Accident Benefits, also known as “no-fault benefits”, are the benefits available to you from your own insurance company, after you have been injured as a result of the use or operation of a motor vehicle, regardless of whether you were at fault for the accident.

Those who may be entitled to accident benefits include those who have been injured as a result of the use or operation of a motor vehicle, meaning that pedestrians and cyclists may also be entitled to receive benefits.

Here are some of the benefits you may be entitled to:

Medical and Rehabilitation Benefits;
Attendant Care Benefits;
Income Replacement Benefits;
Caregiver Benefits;
Non-Earner Benefits;
Visitor Expenses;
Lost Educational Expenses; and
Funeral or Death Benefits.

It is beneficial to speak with a lawyer soon after a motor vehicle accident to ensure that you understand what you may be entitled to.

If you have been injured as a result of the use or operation of a motor vehicle, contact our office to schedule a free consultation with an experienced personal injury lawyer at McKenzie Lake Lawyers LLP in London, Ontario.

When you have a legal matter and need to hire a lawyer, you may be able to pay for these services on a contingency basis. That means you only pay legal fees if you receive money because your case wins or you get a negotiated settlement. Please see our Contingency Fee section for answers to frequently asked questions and see each lawyer’s individual biography for their maximum contingency fee rates.
