Who We Are

For decades, Oatley Vigmond has helped Ontarians navigate the complexities of car accident claims. We combine compassionate guidance with proven results, ensuring you receive the care, compensation, and support you deserve.

Why You Need a Car Accident Lawyer

After a serious car accident, you may be facing more than just physical injuries. You may be struggling with emotional trauma, time away from work, mounting medical bills, and uncertainty about your future. Ontario’s auto insurance system can be complicated, with strict deadlines, complex paperwork, and rules that can be overwhelming when you’re trying to recover.

That’s where Oatley Vigmond comes in.

We understand how life-changing a car accident can be. Our lawyers help you navigate the insurance system, secure the benefits you’re entitled to, and pursue additional compensation when someone else’s negligence caused your injuries. We work directly with medical and rehabilitation professionals to ensure you get the care you need, while we handle the legal and insurance challenges on your behalf.

Having the right lawyer means having an advocate who understands your rights, fights for your best interests, and supports you every step of the way, so you can focus on healing.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Are The Most Common Injuries in Car Accidents?
  • Whiplash & Soft Tissue Injuries: Neck, back, and muscle injuries caused by sudden force.
  • Fractures & Broken Bones: Often in the arms, legs, ribs, and pelvis.
  • Concussions & Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI): Ranging from mild concussions to severe brain trauma.

  • Back Injuries: Herniated discs, chronic pain, and nerve damage.
    Internal Injuries: Damage to organs or internal bleeding, sometimes not immediately obvious.

  • Catastrophic Injuries: Life-altering injuries such as amputations, severe burns, or permanent disability.

Every car accident case is unique, and settlement amounts can vary greatly depending on the severity of injuries, the impact on your life, and the insurance coverage available. While some cases resolve for smaller amounts, others involving serious or catastrophic injuries may lead to much larger settlements.

At Oatley Vigmond, our priority is to make sure you receive the full compensation you’re entitled to, for your recovery, your future care needs, and your peace of mind. We’ll review your case in detail and guide you through what to expect.

You aren’t legally required to hire a lawyer after a car accident, but having an experienced car accident lawyer on your side can make a significant difference. We help you navigate Ontario’s complex insurance system, handle important deadlines, and pursue the full benefits and compensation you deserve.

Even if you don’t feel hurt immediately, it’s important to watch for symptoms of injuries that often appear later, such as whiplash, concussions or other traumatic brain injuries, soft tissue damage, internal injuries, and emotional trauma like anxiety or post-traumatic stress. Having a lawyer ensures these potential injuries are properly documented and addressed, so you get the care and support you need.

If you were at fault in a car accident, it’s important to know that you still have rights and options. In Ontario, your own insurance policy provides accident benefits that can cover your medical treatment, rehabilitation, and income replacement, regardless of who caused the crash.

However, being at fault may affect your ability to claim additional compensation from others. It can also impact your insurance rates and driving record.

At Oatley Vigmond, we can help you understand your coverage, guide you through the claims process, and advise you on how to protect yourself legally. No matter your role in the accident, we’re here to support you every step of the way.
