Fredericton Lawyers for Injury and Criminal Cases

The Fredericton lawyers at Mike Murphy Law Group take injury claims and criminal charges from the capital and run them from the Moncton office, under two hours east on Route 2. The city is where the province’s courts are headquartered, so a Fredericton file is heard in the same building whether it starts as a charge or as a claim.

Both Courts Sit in the Justice Building on Queen Street

The Justice Building at 427 Queen Street houses the Provincial Court of New Brunswick and the Court of King’s Bench for the Fredericton judicial district, and it backs onto the Legislative Assembly grounds. A criminal charge from the city or the surrounding communities is called in the Provincial Court first. An injury lawsuit that does not settle is filed in the Court of King’s Bench under the Rules of Court made under the Judicature Act. Sittings are published by the Courts of New Brunswick, and either court will hear a Fredericton matter in French on election.

What a Fredericton Injury Claim Involves

The two-year limit in New Brunswick’s Limitation of Actions Act applies in Fredericton as everywhere in the province, and the day it starts from is confirmed on the first call. The Dr. Everett Chalmers Regional Hospital is the regional trauma and emergency centre for the whole Upper River Valley, so its chart usually anchors the medical record, with your family doctor, your physiotherapist and your employer filling in the rest. A car accident claim also opens Section B benefits with your own insurer, whoever was at fault. The Trans-Canada, Highway 8 along the Nashwaak and the two river bridges through downtown produce most of the city’s serious collisions, and the police collision report is ordered on each one early.

Criminal Charges Fredericton Lawyers Defend

The Fredericton Police Force polices the city itself and RCMP detachments cover the communities around it, including Oromocto and the Keswick valley. Nothing is conceded before the Crown’s disclosure has been produced and read. Two universities and a community college campus put a share of the docket in the hands of people facing a first charge in their twenties, where the difference between a conviction and a discharge decides whether the record follows them into a career. The assault and DUI pages state how those charges run in New Brunswick.

Counsel Appears on Queen Street, and You Do Not Have To

The file is run from the Moncton office, and counsel attends the Justice Building for every date that requires a lawyer. Fredericton clients deal with the firm by phone, video and email, and the two hours on Route 2 is a drive the firm makes instead of you. Contact the firm or call.
