Different types of tort claims in Ontario
Unintentional Tort Claims
Unintentional tort claims are pursued when someone didn’t injure another party on purpose. The injury came from sheer negligence. There is an expectation that people will follow the rules, pay attention, and address hazards, however, sometimes this expectation isn’t kept, and people are injured as a result. Unintentional tort claims are often car accidents, slip and falls, medical malpractice and product or premises liability claims.
Intentional Tort Claims
Unlike unintentional tort claims, intentional tort claims are when someone is hurt by another person on purpose. In some cases of intentional tort claims, the defendant will also be tried under the Canadian Criminal Code. Oftentimes these claims involve fraud, sexual harassment, sexual assault, battery, vandalism or defamation.
Important steps to take when injured
It’s important to remember that injuries can take some time to present themselves. If you’ve been in a bad accident, it’s important to take these steps regardless of how you feel, as it may take a few days or weeks for the full extent of your injuries to become apparent.
Police reports are a valuable part of any court proceeding, so ensuring that the police have all the information you have available will reflect positively on your case.
