If you’ve been in an accident and need treatment, Wes advises you to seek those practitioners that will work with ICBC.
Wes explains why family doctors avoid taking on @ICBC injury cases.
Wes explains how you can reduce premiums paid by young drivers.
In September 2019, ICBC moved towards a driver-based insurance policy. This made insurance more expensive. Wes explains the importance of listing all drivers for each vehicle, and the risks that come with not doing so.
We are pleased to announce our significant win in the BC Supreme Court. Our client suffered severe and debilitating injuries in a car accident, upending her life and derailing a lucrative career she worked so hard to achieve. ICBC offered her $435,000, far less than what her claim was worth. They hired a doctor who was exposed at trial as biased and an ICBC advocate. They used irrelevant statistics to suggest that our client would have earned far less than what our specific a...nd objective evidence indicated. In the end, the Court rejected ICBC’s tactics and awarded our client $2.2 million dollars. It is notable that our client was prepared to accept far less than what she was eventually awarded. She wanted to put this claim behind her several years ago. Unfortunately, ICBC would not oblige. Personal injury lawyers and injured victims are not the problem. ICBC’s structure and culture is. This claim could have settled a long time ago if ICBC was run like a private, efficient corporation with some semblance of accountability. With the arrival of no fault, and without lawyers or judges to provide checks and balances, ICBC is about to get a whole lot worse.
Recently, ICBC made changes to the process for cashing out your part seven claims. Wes explains the changes, and how to go about it.
