Personal Injury FAQs

▶ What is the statute of limitations on personal injury in Nova Scotia?

In most provinces, the statute of limitations for an injury claim is two years. Generally, the period starts when the injury was discovered or should have been discovered. In most cases, the discovery of harm occurs right after the accident occurs. The limitation period will be longer for those who were children at the time and for those who could not make decisions.

▶ What is the pain and suffering law in Nova Scotia?

For injured people, the law in Nova Scotia allows an injury victim to make a claim for the injuries and damages they suffered. General damages for pain and suffering are intended to compensate the injury victim for what they have had to ensure, the function they have lost, and the loss of enjoyment in life they will now experience. General damage money is supposed to compensate for the suffering of the injured victim and bring them back to where they were before the incident with money.

▶ Can you sue for personal injury in Nova Scotia?

Nova Scotia law allows injury victims to sue someone who was negligent and the cause of their injuries, damages, and loss. In most cases, the insurance company providing coverage to the at-fault party will respond to the claim.

▶ How does personal injury work in Nova Scotia?

In Nova Scotia, personal injury cases arise when a person suffers damages (monetary or not) due to another person’s acts, omissions, or negligence. This entitles the injured person to seek compensation from those responsible for causing the losses. The claim is usually negotiated with an insurance adjuster. If a settlement cannot be reached, the insurance company will hire a defence lawyer to respond to the legal claim.

▶ What is the compensation for personal injury in Nova Scotia?

There are two main parts to a personal injury compensation settlement: general damages and special damages. General Damages compensate you for your injury and your pain and suffering. Special Damages compensate you for any expenses you’ve incurred, loss of earnings, and future care needs.

▶ What is a liability in a Nova Scotia personal injury claim?

In a Nova Scotia personal injury case, liability means the responsibility to compensate an injury victim for the damages and losses caused by the wrongdoer. If a personal injury case goes to trial, the judge or jury will decide who is liable for the incident. More than one person could be liable for an incident; it will be decided on a case-by-case basis.
