Nova Scotia Bicycle Accidents

While it might seem cost-effective to represent yourself, insurance companies often offer lower settlements to unrepresented individuals. They may exploit your lack of legal knowledge to undervalue your claim. A Nova Scotia bicycle accident lawyer knows how to gather evidence, negotiate effectively, and, if necessary, take the case to court to secure the compensation you deserve. In almost all cases, the additional compensation obtained with legal representation outweighs the legal fees, and you will never go out of pocket.

In the Atlantic provinces, if you’ve been injured in a car accident, you’re entitled to certain benefits right away, regardless of who was at fault. These are known as Section B benefits and are part of the policy of the at-fault driver who hit you as a bicyclist.

Section B is designed to provide no-fault support for accident-related expenses, including:

• Medical and Rehabilitation Costs: Coverage for treatments, therapies, and necessary medical supplies.
• Loss of Income: Compensation for lost wages if your injuries prevent you from working.
• Funeral and Death Benefits: Financial assistance for families in the event of a fatal accident.

These benefits ensure you can access support immediately. Whether it’s medical care or wage loss, Section B is intended to help bridge the gap during this challenging time.

Our team handles every aspect of your claim, ensuring you receive the compensation you deserve.
