Frequently Asked Questions – Motorcycle Accident Lawyers in Ottawa

Motorcycle riders are more exposed than drivers of cars or trucks, with no airbags, seat belts, or protective vehicle frame to absorb impact. This means collisions, especially with larger vehicles, can cause severe and life-changing injuries. Common outcomes include bone fractures, serious orthopedic injuries, traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord damage, amputations, paralysis, and, in the worst cases, death. These injuries often require long-term rehabilitation and can have significant financial and emotional impacts.

If you’ve been involved in a motorcycle accident in Ottawa or elsewhere in Ontario, you may be eligible for compensation to cover a wide range of losses. This includes medical treatment costs, rehabilitation expenses, lost wages, reduced future earning potential, and out-of-pocket expenses. You may also be entitled to damages for pain and suffering, emotional distress, and loss of enjoyment of life. Under Ontario’s comparative negligence rules, even if you are partially at fault, you may still receive compensation, though the amount could be reduced based on your level of responsibility.

At QTMG, we take a comprehensive approach to recovery that goes beyond legal representation. We connect clients with trusted medical professionals, including physiotherapists, chiropractors, surgeons, occupational therapists, and psychiatrists, to support physical and psychological healing. We also work with financial experts such as actuaries and planners to assess current and future needs. Our team collaborates with accident reconstruction specialists, toxicologists, and forensic engineers to build strong cases and establish liability, giving you the best chance at a fair settlement.

Your safety and health should come first. Seek medical attention immediately, even if you feel fine, as some injuries take time to appear. If possible, gather evidence at the scene, take photographs, record witness contact details, and obtain a copy of the police report. Notify your insurance company promptly and contact an experienced Ottawa motorcycle accident lawyer as soon as possible. Acting quickly ensures your rights are protected and that important deadlines, such as accident benefit applications and the two-year limitation period for lawsuits, are met.

We believe that everyone should have access to quality legal representation, regardless of their financial situation. That’s why QTMG works on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay no legal fees unless we win or settle your case. Your initial consultation is always free, and during that meeting, we will explain the claims process, discuss your legal options, and outline the potential value of your case so you can make informed decisions moving forward.
