Dieppe Lawyers for Injury and Criminal Cases

Dieppe is the largest francophone city in New Brunswick and it has no courthouse, no provincial court registry and no hospital of its own, so every Dieppe file is run somewhere else. Mike Murphy Law Group takes injury claims and criminal charges from the city, and the Dieppe lawyers on a file work from the Moncton office, a few minutes away. Files run in French or in English, your choice.

The Courts That Serve Dieppe

A criminal charge from Dieppe is called at the Moncton Law Courts on Assomption Blvd, where the Provincial Court of New Brunswick sits. An injury lawsuit that does not settle is filed with the Court of King’s Bench for the Moncton judicial district, which hears its civil cases in the same building. Both proceed in French on request.

What Dieppe Lawyers Take on for Injury Claims

New Brunswick’s Limitation of Actions Act gives most injury claims two years, and the date the limitation period starts is confirmed on the first call. Medical records usually come from the Dr. Georges-L.-Dumont University Hospital Centre, which sits beside the Dieppe line, or from The Moncton Hospital across town. A car accident file also opens Section B benefits with your own insurer, whoever caused the crash. Dieppe Blvd, Amirault Street and the Route 15 interchanges carry most of the city’s collision traffic, and the police collision report is ordered on each file before the insurer starts calling.

Criminal Charges Laid in Dieppe

Codiac Regional RCMP polices Dieppe together with Moncton and Riverview, so a charge from anywhere in the city lands in the same Moncton courtrooms. Say nothing to police beyond identifying yourself, and let counsel read the Crown’s disclosure before any decision is made about how the charge is answered. The DUI and theft pages explain how those two charges run in New Brunswick.

Counsel Appears at the Moncton Law Courts

The file is run from the Moncton office, and counsel attends the Law Courts on Assomption Blvd for every date that requires a lawyer, in French or in English. Opening the file takes an account of what happened, whatever paperwork you already hold, and a signed records consent, none of which asks you to come in. Contact the firm or call.
