#LearnWithLouis: Settlement A settlement, in law, is a compromise or agreement between litigants to settle the matters in dispute between them in order to dispose of and conclude the case. Generally, as a result of the settlement, the case is withdrawn or dismissed without any judgment being entered. Settlement is a great opportunity for my clients to resolve their cases before going to trial and usually helps keep costs down for the parties.
Another amazing charity to support is Ronald McDonald House Charities Southwestern Ontario is a place where out-of-town families with seriously ill children can stay for as long as they need only 165 steps from Children's Hospital, London Health Sciences Centre. By providing things like a private room and bath, homemade dinners, laundry facilities, and all the other comforts of home for just $12 a night, we are able to help bring a bit of "normal" to families with sick kids... while lifting some of the financial burdens weighing on parents. With major renovations in 2011 bringing our House from 17 to 34 bedrooms, we continue to grow in order to provide comforting and supportive programs and services to help families going through very difficult times.

#LearnWithLouisLaw: Cap on Damages for Pain and Suffering. Unlike in the United States, where in certain states, damages for pain and suffering awards can be quite large, the Supreme Court of Canada (SCC) capped the amount one can receive for pain and suffering damages. In 1978, the SCC decided on damages caps in three cases where plaintiffs were catastrophically injured. In these cases, the Court acknowledged that damages for pain and suffering must be determined based on individual circumstances of each case, but established an upper limit in order to bring consistency and stability to these damages awards. The SCC set the damages cap for pain and suffering at $100,000, which has been adjusted for inflation. The current upper limit on damages for pain and suffering is approximately $400,000.

There's a lot to be thankful for this year! Closing out 2021, I'd like to acknowledge my Senior Law Clerk, Barbara. She has worked in the legal field for 25 years in the areas of civil litigation, insurance defence and plaintiff personal injury. She has extensive tort trial experience and expertise in matters involving complex catastrophic cases, short term and long term disability benefits and accident benefits disputes. Barbara’s dedication to clients is immeasurable and she is sympathetic to their needs and advocates for their rights to benefits and justice. I'm so happy she is part of my team! Thank you for all that you do, Barb!

#LearnWithLouisLaw: What is an Acquired Brain Injury? An Acquired Brain Injury is damage to the brain that occurs after birth from a traumatic or non-traumatic event. Traumatic ABIs occur from damage to the brain caused by a traumatic event such as a blow to the head, a fall, a sports related injury or a motor vehicle accident. These traumatic events happen unexpectedly and can affect anybody, including young and otherwise healthy people. ABIs can range from mild to severe; some people are able to quickly return to their regular activities while others can have permanent effects.
In lieu of Holiday cards, #LouisLaw will be donating to charity! Especially with the lack of fundraising opportunities due to COVID, charities need support now more than ever. We are happy to support local charities and many charities all throughout Ontario.

#LearnWithLouisLaw: Ontario’s no-fault Statutory Accident Benefits provides individuals who are injured in motor vehicle accidents medical and other benefits to assist them while recovering from their injuries. Every automobile insurance plan in Ontario includes the Statutory Accident Benefits, however, there are limits on the amounts of these benefits that can make it insufficient for those who are seriously injured. Under the Insurance Act, Ontarian's are able to purchase Optional Benefits that augment the Statutory Accident Benefits.

#LearnWithLouisLaw: Mediation! A mediation is a voluntary meeting between the parties in hopes of settling the matter. A mediator, who is not a judge, is hired to be present. The mediator’s job is solely to facilitate settlement. A mediation usually begins with all parties in the same room. Opening remarks will be made by both sides, usually by the lawyers, but you are welcome to say something if you so desire. After this, the parties will break out into separate rooms - u...s in one room, and the opposing party and their counsel in the other room. The mediator will go between rooms, exchanging offers between the parties and trying to aid in settlement. The hope is that, prior to the end of the day, a number is agreed upon. If no settlement is agreed to, the offers exchanged cannot be relied on by either party later. The litigation process continues on as if the mediation never occurred. At #LouisLaw we are here by your side and will assist and prepare you if you are attending a mediation. See more
#LearnWithLouisLaw: The COVID-19 pandemic has changed the way things are done across many industries and the legal profession has had to adapt as well.On March 15, 2020, the Ontario Superior Court of Justice suspended all but urgent matters. Because the Court has a constitutional responsibility to ensure access to justice remains available, they have taken a number of steps to re-open and begin hearing matters again.

Happy Holidays from #LouisLaw! May your days be merry & bright this Holiday season and throughout the New Year!
During the winter, it is important for people to exercise caution when walking and to be alert for icy patches. Snow and ice on sidewalks, roads and in other areas such as parking lots increase the number of slip and fall accidents during the winter months. Have you been injured in a slip and fall accident? #LouisLaw is here for you!
See what the #LouisLaw team covers!
Nearly 30% of Canadian car accidents occur on snowy or icy roads. Always make sure you are driving safe during snowfall and always keep your eyes on the road!

Introducing, #LearnWithLouisLaw! I will be posting a series of posts to educate you about the Personal Injury Law process. Up first: Pre-Trial Conferences! If your matter does not settle throughout the normal course or at a mediation, and a trial is scheduled, a pre-trial conference is required. A pre-trial conference is a meeting between all parties in the litigation and a judge. The judge’s job is to give his or her opinion on the matter and try to facilitate settlement. It... is a confidential meeting that takes place at the courthouse, typically in the judge’s chambers. For the most part, the pre-trial conference is a chance for the lawyers to discuss the case with the judge. You may not be in the room for the entire conference. However, the judge may want to ask you some questions about the accident and how your life has been impacted. The judge may also talk to you about the strengths and weaknesses of your case. He or she will want to ensure that you understand the risks you face if the matter goes to trial. The #LouisLaw team will prepare you for the pre-trial conference and be by your side. See more

Always pay attention to where you are walking and call #LouisLaw if you're ever hurt!

A spinal cord injury often produces a temporary or permanent change that affects normal motor, sensory or autonomic functions. They are one of the most long-lasting and debilitating injuries. This injury can render you or a loved one partially or even completely disabled. In Ontario, some of the medical expenses are covered by OHIP but due to the longevity of most spinal cord injuries they do not cover things such as drugs, long-term expenses, caregiver costs and loss of income. Have you or a loved one suffered through a spinal cord injury and don't know where to start? Contact #LouisLaw today! Our team will ensure you get the compensation and help you and your family deserve.
