Like all lawyers in Alberta, Edmonton injury lawyers must be members of the Alberta Bar Association and are regulated by the Law Society of Alberta.
The amount of compensation you are entitled to depends on a number of factors, including but not limited to the severity of your injury and possibly on the effect the injuries will have on your future ability to work. While some claims do end up in court, the vast majority that have a lawyer involved settle out of court. Fatality accident bring their own set of rules into play. Compensation can often be obtained for surviving family members.
If you or someone close to you has been involved in a serious accident you owe it to yourself to obtain immediate legal advice.
