WHAT IS AN ORTHOPAEDIC INJURY?

An orthopaedic injury or fracture is an injury sustained to the musculoskeletal system, which includes the joints, tendons, ligaments, and cartilage.

The Workplace Safety and Insurance Act of 1997 now houses the orthopaedic injury law. The law was nestled previously under the Tort Law of Canada in 1860. The orthopaedic injury law enables you to seek financial compensation for damages that you have incurred from the injury.

The loss of wages and medical expenses, as well as pain and suffering, are used to determine your eligibility for damages. Our orthopaedic injury lawyers can help strengthen your case and ensure all facts are accurately presented and in your best interests.

Our Zayouna legal team handles all communications with the liable party, including negotiations and settlements. Orthopaedic injury law is a mandatory clause for registered businesses in Canada. As [e]stablishing liability with an individual may require court proceedings, our free consultation will help you understand your legal routes and options.

Why is an orthopaedic injury law important?

Orthopedic fractures range from mild to severe and debilitating. These injuries can cause you to lose wages. Even if this loss is only temporary, you are entitled to seek damages for any financial costs that arose because of your oprthopaedic injury.

The law is imperative to the process of establishing entitlement and liability. Our dedicated legal representative can help explain the process of presenting and negotiating your claim. They are the professionals who stay current in their knowledge of all the legal changes or amendments. You will have peace of mind that your legal counsel has presented the best argument at the negotiation table, and the liable party is presenting you a fair offer for settlement.

Cause for orthopaedic injury Claims

Fractures are the injuries people assume are straightforward, and in a claim they often are not. A bone heals on a schedule. Function, and the work you can return to, frequently does not.

When a fracture does not fully heal

Hardware left in place, joint stiffness, reduced range of motion, post-traumatic arthritis and chronic pain are the outcomes that turn a healed fracture into a permanent impairment. Because the X-ray eventually looks acceptable, these claims are frequently undervalued by insurers, and the evidence that matters is functional: what you can lift, how long you can stand, what your job now requires that you can no longer do.

The threshold in auto claims

In Ontario motor vehicle tort claims, general damages are subject to a statutory deductible and a monetary threshold, and both are indexed annually. The effect is that smaller awards are reduced significantly and very small ones can be extinguished. Whether an orthopaedic injury clears that threshold turns on permanence and seriousness, which is a medical and legal question to settle before a claim is framed.

Claim Process

Our orthopaedic injury Claims Process

The orthopaedic records establish the injury. The functional evidence, from your employer and your own account of daily activity, establishes what it cost.

FAQS

Common Questions About orthopaedic injury Claims

What sort of financial settlement can I expect from an orthopaedic injury claim?

There is no set amount for damages being awarded for an orthopaedic injury. There is an assessment process that provides an analytical outlook on the extent of the injury and the possible future complications on the injured person in the long term. Those factors are used to determine any eligibility.

As with all injury claims within Canada, there is a set timeline of 2-years after the accident that caused the orthopaedic injury, or fracture. The claim must be filed within that period to be considered for compensation.

There is no definitive answer for this. The process can be quick, within days, or lengthy, months or longer. The circumstances will vary by the situation. That is why we advise you to contact our legal team immediately after sustaining the orthopedic injury. We will try our best to ensure that your case advances through the legal proces seamlessly, without any evidence being overlooked or dismissed.
