ACCIDENT TYPES

Motor Vehicle AccidentsInjured in an Ontario car accident, truck accident, pedestrian accident, bicycle accident or motorcycle accident?  We can help you with a law suit against the at-fault driver for pain and suffering and with your claim for statutory accident benefits (no fault benefits).

Bodily InjuryIf you have slipped, tripped, fallen or been bitten by a dog in Ontario, we can help you obtain damages for your injuries. 

Medical MistakesA mishap in the hospital, a failure to diagnose, a delayed diagnosis, phamacy mistake, nursing errors, surgical errors or other negligent medical care can result in a claim for compensation.

Dangerous ProductProducts that injure their users can give rise to liability and damages.  Drugs with bad side effects, negligently designed products or packaging, protective gear that does not work-- these are just some examples of product liability claims Auger Hollingsworth will prosecute.

Gas, Chemical, Electrical and other Burn InjuryWhen chemicals spill or gas tanks explode there may be claims for compensation against large corporations or the government entities that are supposed to regulate these industries. 

CrimeVictims of sexual assault (rape, molestation) as a child or adult may have a claim for compensation.  Victims of other forms of violence or criminal negligence may also have claims.

Dog Bites / Animal AttacksIf you are injured by an animal, you may be entitled to compensation.  Animal scratches, animal attacks, animal bites may all be compensable.
