We will assist you during the healing and rehabilitation process, explain legal principles in detail, and provide appropriate legal advice as needed. We will fight for our clients to ensure you and your loved ones receive the maximum compensation.

By law, all Ontario motorists must carry insurance so when there is an accident, insurance companies will pay the injured parties for any damages or expenses incurred.

People in Ontario benefit from “no-fault insurance” coverage, which means it does not matter who is or isn’t at fault. When you are injured due to a motor vehicle accident, you have the right to apply to your own insurance company for what is known as Accident Benefits, including:

Accident Benefits in Ontario

Medical and rehabilitation benefits

Income replacement or non-earner benefits

Attendant care benefits (non-minor injuries)

Caregiving benefits (optional)

…and more

If you are NOT at fault in a motor vehicle accident, you may also be entitled to claim damages from the at-fault driver and their insurance company in what is known as a Tort or Third-Party Claim, including for:

Tort & Third-Party Claim damages

Pain and suffering

Future care and treatment needs

Past and future economic losses

Housekeeping & home maintenance

…and more

Hit-and-run, uninsured, or stolen vehicle?

Sometimes, getting compensated may be a problem if the at-fault vehicle was stolen, driven without the consent of the owner, or the at-fault driver was otherwise uninsured or underinsured. Other times, you may be involved in a hit-and-run accident when you cannot identify the at-fault party. When such issues arise, many people assume that they have no recourse. This is simply not true. MAZI LAW will help you navigate the legal process and seek compensation.

What we handle

Practice areas — Accident Lawyer North York & Toronto.

Every motor vehicle accident is different. Below are the case types we work on most frequently.

Car Accident Lawyer

Toronto and North York

Car accidents often cause physical pain, psychological and mental trauma, cognitive issues, and sleeping problems that can negatively interfere with one’s ability to conduct daily tasks, including going back to work or school, taking care of loved ones, or conducting daily chores.

If you’ve been injured in a car accident, you will benefit from the services of an experienced Toronto car accident lawyer. The path to being fairly compensated is often long and filled with legal obstacles. During a period of physical and mental suffering, you need caring and experienced lawyers to help you navigate the complexities of legal proceedings. This is where MAZI LAW will make a difference in your life.

Pedestrian Accident Lawyer

Toronto and North York

When you are hit by a car, your unprotected body is struck by a large, heavy object that is likely moving at a high speed. As a pedestrian, you are likely vulnerable to many of the same injuries as motorcyclists and bicyclists, such as fractures and broken bones, pain or bruising and swelling of body parts, as well as more serious injuries such as head or brain injuries, concussion, spinal injuries, and severe psychological trauma.

Many cars hit pedestrians when the drivers are intoxicated, speeding, or otherwise distracted (texting, on the phone, not paying attention to their surroundings). Even if you are deemed at fault in some way, you can still claim Accident Benefits. If you are not at fault, you are likely entitled to claim damages against the at-fault party who hit you.

Public Transportation Accident Lawyer

Toronto

Accidents involving public transportation vehicles are more common than many people think. These types of accidents often involve buses, streetcars, subways, trains, or taxis. Sometimes, the public transportation vehicle is owned by a specific company, such as TTC, Via Rail, Metrolinx, GO Train, and more.

Accidents on public transportation vehicles may be governed by different laws from other accidents, and there may be special deadlines, limitation periods, and regulations that determine who is responsible for your injuries and what you can and cannot claim. You need an experienced lawyer to help you sort this out.

At-fault Accident Lawyer

Toronto and North York

Victims of accidents often experience life-altering changes that may also have lasting impacts on your family, friends, and employment. At MAZI LAW, we know that motor vehicle accidents are not always the fault of the driver.

Sometimes, motor vehicle accidents happen due to factors outside of the driver’s control, including weather conditions, slippery or snowy road conditions, construction, mechanical issues, or other reasons. A proper investigation is required to determine fault. When you are injured, even if you are at fault, you may be entitled to medical and rehabilitation benefits as well as income replacement benefits.

Uber & Lyft Accident Lawyer

Toronto and North York

Today, ridesharing services such as Uber and Lyft have become very common. If you have been injured in an Uber accident or Lyft accident, your case may have many complications that will be difficult to navigate without the help of an experienced accident lawyer.

If you were travelling in an Uber or Lyft that was involved in a car accident, you may be entitled to Accident Benefits. Depending on the circumstances of your case, you may also be entitled to monies for your pain and suffering from the at-fault driver’s insurance company. To ensure your rights are protected, you must collect as much information as possible including the name, contact information, and insurance information of your Uber or Lyft driver, as well as any other driver(s) involved in the accident. You must also contact the police right away.

If you have been hurt in an Uber accident or Lyft accident, contact MAZI LAW today.

Motorcycle & Bicycle Accident Lawyer

Toronto and North York

Although bicycles and motorcycles are required to behave the same as motor vehicles on Ontario roads, people riding on bikes and motorcycles are often more vulnerable to serious injuries and bodily harm caused by an accident.

We know that motorcycle and bike accidents happen for various reasons, including driver inattention, poor weather and lighting conditions, “dooring”, speeding, or bicyclist and motorcyclist error. Sometimes, police and insurance investigators may assume you are at fault, even if you are not, and may not investigate your case as thoroughly as others. In cases of dooring, for example, it may simply be assumed that the bicyclist should have been more careful when riding near parked cars. Too often, drivers who door cyclists are not even fined.

If you have been hurt in a motorcycle accident or bike accident, contact MAZI LAW today.
