Auto Accidents and Car Wrecks
No matter the type of auto accident you’ve been involved in – speeding, drug or alcohol impairment, highway accident, lane change accident, side or rear impact collision, truck accident, pedestrian accident – our motor vehicle injury lawyers have handled them all. Ches Crosbie Barristers also knows about the types of injuries that these accidents cause, including whiplash, sprain and strain injuries, bone fractures, spinal cord injuries, traumatic brain injuries, wrongful death and more.
Accidents and Injuries
Ches Crosbie Barristers was founded in Newfoundland and Labrador in 1991 to help people injured by the fault or negligence of others. The accident and injury category includes car wrecks, but also people injured in slips, trips and falls and other unsafe conditions on property, boating accidents, ATV and snowmobile accidents, accidents involving aircraft, and defective products and equipment.
Medical Malpractice
Any time you go to the doctor or you spend time in the hospital, you put your faith in the nurses, doctors, and other hospital staff with the expectation that they will take good care of you. Unfortunately, this does not always happen, and medical mistakes result in serious injuries and sometimes death. Sadly, we have seen many cases where our clients were injured by the negligence of doctors, nurses, and hospitals. You don’t deserve to suffer without compensation for the rest of your life because of a medical mistake.
Class Action Lawsuits
Ches Crosbie Barristers has pioneered class action lawsuits in Newfoundland and Labrador. Class actions allow individuals with similar claims to band together and present their case on a more even footing with big defendants. This is yet another way in which our innovative firm has leveled the playing field for the consumer. Our firm was the first in Atlantic Canada to obtain a class action certification and the first to achieve a court approved class action settlement.

FAQs
Auto Accidents and Car Wrecks
Does it matter that I didn't see the doctor right after my car accident?
- Do I have to use my own health insurance for my auto accident injuries? I've been injury in a motor vehicle accident and my doctor has referred me for therapy.

My auto insurer is telling me I have to use my own private health coverage to pay for therapy costs prior to accessing my Accident Benefits Coverage. Why?
- I was injured in a car accident and my insurance company is telling me I have to use my personal insurance (e.g. Desjardins, Blue Cross, Manulife) to pay for my massage therapy, physiotherapy and prescription drugs before I can use either the accident benefit coverage (Section B) on my automobile policy, or the insurance of the guy who hit me. Is this right?
