Why Us?
Finding and contacting the best injury lawyers–who truly care and understand what you’re going through–can make all the difference to your future.
To allow you or your loved one to focus on recovery following a serious brain injury, you want to know someone is looking out for you. The shock and pain associated with an injury can be challenging to navigate through alone. Not to mention the onslaught of insurance documents, insurance adjusters, medical appointments and piles of paperwork.
Post-injury life can be extremely overwhelming. But our team at Brain & Injury Law is here to help, so you can focus on the important task of recovery.

Advantages our injury lawyers can offer you
Focused on Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBIs)
Traumatic brain injuries can be difficult to detect and prove. Symptoms of brain injury don’t present as simply and clearly as a broken leg or other obvious injuries. Survivors often feel that those around them (including friends, physicians or lawyers) don’t believe them or understand what is happening to them, so it’s vital to choose a lawyer who has a thorough understanding of brain injuries.
TBIs are our law firm’s focus. Our entire team is well versed in the intricacies of brain injuries. We know how to communicate with you, listen to your experience, and obtain the evidence needed to prove the injury with the right medical professionals. We can confidently deal with insurance companies or ICBC on your behalf. Our team will also connect you with top brain injury specialists who can help you make sense of your injury and get on the path to recovery sooner.
Focused on Medical Malpractice
Our secondary focus is medical malpractice. There is a significant “overlap” in that almost all birth injuries are brain injuries. Our team is led by a lawyer who–over the past 30 years–has dealt with hundreds of birth injuries. Knowing the specialists and the law as well as we do has achieved incredible results for our clients in this area.
If your child has been diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy (CP) or you suspect something went wrong in the birthing process, the best thing you can do is contact our lawyers as soon as possible. Our lawyers are highly experienced with birth injuries and other medical malpractice and are not afraid to hold the medical establishment accountable. They’ll work tirelessly to get the best financial result possible to help your family move forward.
Exceptional Rehabilitation & Recovery Program
What makes us different from other personal injury lawyers is the comprehensive rehabilitation plan we put in place for you. In many cases, we provide significant rehabilitation funding. We work with the best rehabilitation providers in British Columbia – from Penticton to Prince Rupert. We consider your short and long-term care needs, check in with you regularly to see how you’re doing and educate your family members so they can support you during your recovery. Our main concern is to get you the best possible medical and professional support to help you back to work or play sooner. We know this is best for the injured individual and for the legal case.
Care and Compassion
We understand the physical, financial and emotional pressure you are under when you pick up the phone to call us. Our legal team has significant experience and expertise in brain injury litigation and is very sensitive to the needs of survivors and their families. We work closely with everyone involved to provide the most effective and caring legal representation. And we’ll keep in touch long after your claim has settled to make sure you’re OK.
Track Record For Securing Maximum Settlements
Our firm has some of the highest judgments and settlements in medical malpractice, traumatic brain injury and even PTSD cases. Whether you’ve been injured as a result of a car accident, medical malpractice or professional negligence, our excellent team of lawyers and brain injury specialists can represent your case in court to secure the best possible outcome. Read past case results here.
35 Years of Trial Experience
Trial experience is an important factor to consider when selecting a lawyer. Look not just at the number of years of practice, but also the number of trials conducted. When a lawyer regularly runs trials it shows their commitment to the case. The result is often a larger settlement because the insurance company knows the lawyer can and will fight till the end.
Our lawyers have run countless trials for TBI survivors. While most cases eventually resolve without trials, our Vancouver brain injury lawyers have the trial expertise and proven track record to take a case all the way if needed. We don’t shy away from a challenge.
“No-win, no-fee”
We work on a no-win, no-fee basis. You will not be asked to pay us any legal fees or expenses upfront. We’ll even cover your medical and rehabilitation costs so you can focus on your recovery. We are only paid when we successfully resolve your claim through settlement or trial.
We have won more than $350 million dollars for clients in complex brain injury cases and precedent-setting settlements and judgments in BC and worldwide. Of course, what is important is the recovery you achieve, and we focus on obtaining the best result in every case.
Car Accident & ICBC Claims Expertise
With approximately 260,000 reported car accidents in British Columbia each year, you can bet we’ve handled a significant number of auto accident injury claims. Our highly skilled Vancouver brain injury lawyers have 35+ years of experience with ICBC claims and are not afraid of going to trial to get you the highest settlement possible.
