Quispamsis Accident Lawyer


Anyone can be involved in an accident. They happen out of nowhere, and can affect anyone. Even the most cautious, safety-minded Quispamsis resident could be the victim of an accident, especially one caused by another party or entity’s negligence.

In the context of injury claims, negligence occurs when someone owes a duty of care to another individual but, through a number of various actions, inactions, errors, omissions, law violations, or other wrongful behaviours, fails to sufficiently fulfill that duty. By definition, accidents are not premeditated. Instead, they are most frequently caused by someone’s disregard for another person’s physical safety and their lack of consideration for the well-being of others.

Many people fail to consider the consequences of their actions and the potentially damaging effects their behaviours may have on someone else’s quality of life. This lack of care for their fellow community members could have severe repercussions for accident victims and their families.

Sustaining injuries in an accident caused by someone else’s negligence can be a harrowing process. Often physically difficult, emotionally challenging, and financially distressing, the recovery process can take a toll on all areas of an accident victim’s life and their livelihood. Injured accident victims often struggle to afford newly acquired costs of medical care, face difficulties putting food on the table, and develop severe anxieties worrying about how they will be able to continue supporting their families, all because of someone else’s failure to consider the effects of their negligent actions.

If you were injured in an accident caused by someone else’s negligence, our accident lawyers serving Quispamsis may be able to provide you with crucial legal advice and assistance. Our Quispamsis accident lawyers have a history of helping local community members who have sustained injuries in a number of unexpected, traumatic, and preventable accidents, including:

  • Car accidents
  • Motorcycle accidents
  • Truck accidents
  • Bicycle accidents
  • Pedestrian accidents
  • Snowmobile accidents
  • ATV accidents
  • Boating accidents
  • Slip and fall accidents
  • Scooter accidents
  • E-bike accidents
  • And more

Provincial laws exist to ensure that people fulfill their responsibilities to others. While their existence alone may not enforce responsible behaviours or practices, by mandating the ways in which certain individuals must care for others, provincial laws mandate liability for situations wherein they are violated. As such, depending on the circumstances of the accident, in accordance with provincial law, at-fault parties whose wrongful conduct was directly responsible for causing an accident may be required to financially compensate the people injured as a result of their negligence.

For example, all licensed motor vehicle operators are required to abide by provincial traffic laws. If a driver violates any number of the province’s rules of the road, they could very well put someone else’s life at risk. That is why, in accordance with provincial law, motorists must exercise a reasonable degree of caution while operating their vehicles. Since all drivers on the province’s roads have a legal obligation to reasonably uphold this duty of care to all other road-users, if a motorist violates a traffic law and an accident ensues, they may be considered negligent. Therefore, they may be liable for damages arising from injuries sustained in that collision.

In Quispamsis, some common violations of traffic laws that frequently lead to accidents with unsuspecting road-users include:

  • Distracted driving
  • Driving under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs
  • Excessive speeding
  • Reckless driving
  • Failing to obey traffic signs/signals
  • Texting while driving
  • And more

In addition to drivers and other motor vehicle operators, the people who own or occupy both commercial and residential properties also have a legal responsibility for the safety of others. According to provincial legislation, the people responsible for maintaining a commercial or residential space must routinely inspect their premises and address any hazardous issues that may lead to injurious accidents. Since property owners/occupiers are responsible for performing routine inspections and maintenance, they should be aware of potentially dangerous hazards on their property. If they fail to repair these hazardous maintenance issues or adequately warn visitors about them and an accident transpires as a result, the property owner/occupier who shirked their duty of care may be considered negligent. Some hazards commonly neglected by property owners and/or occupiers include:

  • Uncleared ice and snow
  • Spilled liquids
  • Broken or missing handrails
  • Poor lighting
  • Wet floors
  • Uneven surfaces
  • Loose carpeting
  • Cracked sidewalks
  • Potholes
  • Cluttered walkways
  • Broken tiles
  • And more
