In today’s episode, Personal Injury Lawyer Andrew Iacobelli will discuss how lay witnesses can be a major asset to your personal injury claim. Family, friends and co-workers are generally seen as credible and unbiased witnesses. They are not financially or personally invested in the outcome of your claim, which can enhance their reliability in the eyes of the court. These personal relationships with you can lend credibility to your case.
If multiple individuals who know you well provide consistent accounts of your condition and how the accident has affected you, it strengthens your case. Consistency among lay witnesses can help establish a clear and accurate narrative on how your injuries and symptoms have affected your abilities to perform daily activities or engage in recreational activities and hobbies.
Andrew will also share how work colleagues, in particular, can provide an objective perspective on how the injury has affected your job performance, attendance, and overall work life. This can be important in cases where you are seeking compensation for lost wages or earning capacity.
If you’ve been injured in an accident, your family, friends and co-workers can provide invaluable support and credibility to strengthen your personal injury claim. If you have questions or need assistance, reach out for a free consultation.

In today’s video, Andrew will discuss the significance of reporting all of your injuries and symptoms if you’ve been injured in an accident. It’s not just about noting your injuries; it’s about connecting them to the accident and ensuring your medical history and treatment is accurate and supports your claim.
Insurance companies are always seeking ways to deny claims. Complete medical records are crucial when pursuing an insurance claim. Insurers may request these records to assess the validity of your injuries and determine the extent of coverage. Inaccurate or incomplete information could lead to claim denials or reduced compensation. Furthermore, if your doctors are called to testify in a legal case, they must provide accurate and comprehensive information. Failing to document or acknowledge injuries could undermine their credibility during cross-examination and weaken your case.
Documenting all of your injuries and symptoms after an accident is essential to protect your rights and maximize your chances of a successful personal injury claim. Empower yourself with knowledge that can make all the difference in your recovery and financial well being. If you have questions or need assistance, reach out for a free consultation.

Insurance companies are making moves after your accident – are you prepared for the insurance company's call following an accident? In today’s video, Andrew Iacobelli will discuss what individuals should do when contacted by insurance companies after an accident.Â
If you’ve been injured in an accident, your own insurance company may reach out to you and you most likely will be obligated to cooperate and communicate with them. While it may seem like a routine process, it is important to understand your rights as the injured party and take necessary precautions to protect your interests. Discover the reasons why it is strongly recommended to consult with a lawyer before engaging with your insurer.
Additionally, what should you do if the at-fault party’s insurance company contacts you. Speaking to the at-fault party's insurance company without legal guidance can potentially harm your claim. Andrew will discuss various ways you can protect yourself if you are asked to provide a written or recorded statement by the insurance company.
It is highly recommended that you protect yourself with the advice of a lawyer before speaking to any insurance company. Empower yourself with knowledge by tuning in to learn how you can make informed decisions when navigating the complex post accident insurance process. If you have questions or need assistance, reach out for a free consultation.

5m - Nov 7, 2023 - What Is Lawyer-Client Privilege and How Does It Protect You?
Is everything I say to my lawyer confidential? Lawyer-client privilege protects the confidentiality of communications between a lawyer and their client. This privilege enables clients to speak openly and honestly with their attorneys, knowing that the information shared cannot be disclosed to others, including in court. It promotes trust and effective legal representation by allowing clients to share sensitive information without fear of it being used against them. Lawyer-client privilege safeguards the privacy of attorney-client discussions, ensuring a foundation of trust within the legal system.

In today’s video, Ontario Personal Injury Lawyer Andrew Iacobelli will explain how lawyer client privilege works. Lawyer-client privilege is a critical legal protection ensuring confidentiality between clients and their attorneys. It means that communications between them cannot be disclosed. This privilege works both ways: clients can also openly share information with their lawyers without fear of it being shared with third parties, like insurance companies or doctors.
Andrew will share why it’s crucial to share all facts and information with your lawyer, even potentially harmful details, like employment history, unreported income, or past medical issues. Failure to disclose such information can harm your case and credibility.
The lawyer-client privilege begins the moment you consult with an attorney, even before officially hiring them. It remains intact even after your case concludes or your relationship with the lawyer ends. This assurance of ongoing confidentiality should give you peace of mind.
Remember, your lawyer is there to help you navigate legal processes, especially in personal injury cases. Being transparent and sharing all information will empower your lawyer to secure the best possible outcome for your case. If you have questions or need assistance, reach out for a free consultation.

6m - Oct 24, 2023 - How Long Do You Have to File a Personal Injury Claim in Ontario? Statute of Limitations Explained
Time is never on your side when you’re injured. The statute of limitations is a legal time limit that dictates how long you have to initiate a lawsuit after a specific event, such as an accident or injury. Once this prescribed period expires, you typically lose the right to bring a legal claim, regardless of its validity. Don't let the insurance companies gain the upper hand by waiting too long. Learn why time is of the essence and how early action can level the playing field. Watch now and safeguard your rights to fair compensation for your injuries, harms and losses.

Join Andrew Iacobelli as he explains the concept of the Statute of Limitations in personal injury cases. The Statute of Limitations is a legal time limit within which an individual must initiate a lawsuit following an injury-causing incident. Failure to do so, with few exceptions, can result in the forfeiture of the right to bring a claim.
In this episode Andrew will discuss the importance of seeking legal advice promptly after an accident. Speaking with a lawyer is not an immediate commitment to filing a lawsuit; rather, it is an opportunity to understand one's rights and obligations while preserving the claim's integrity. Waiting too long to seek legal advice can be detrimental to a case, as evidence may be most, memories fade over time and insurance companies often begin building their defense as soon as they become aware of potential claims.Â
Consulting with a lawyer early, not only protects your rights but also ensures you have adequate time to assess the merits of your claim and make informed decisions about legal action. If you have questions or need assistance, reach out for a free consultation.

Join Andrew Iacobelli as he uncovers the truth behind insurance medical examinations. In this episode, you’ll learn why these so-called “independent” assessments are far from impartial. Insurance companies are meticulous when it comes to selecting doctors to evaluate accident victims. Their primary objective is to minimize payouts and pay as little as possible for your injury or claim. Discover the tactics insurance companies employ to defeat or deny claims.Â
Learn about the importance of legal advice when attending these mandatory examinations. It’s crucial to be honest when discussing your injuries and pre-existing health conditions with doctors. Regular treatment with your healthcare providers on a consistent basis will help strengthen your case when your file is put under the microscope in court.

In this video, Andrew Iacobelli, a personal injury lawyer with Iacobelli Law Firm, discusses what to do if you are a Canadian who gets injured while traveling in Florida.Â
1. Report the Accident Immediately to the Police
Just like an accident anywhere else in the world? The first thing you want to do is make sure it's reported to the police. You want a police report immediately to secure the evidence of what happened at the scene of the accident.This will also be beneficial when it comes time to file an insurance claim and bring claims for your injuries.
2. Get Medical Treatment or an Assessment Even If You Feel Fine
Get medical treatment as soon as possible, even if you feel fine after the motor vehicle accident.. Even though you're a Canadian and you're concerned about healthcare costs in the United States, your wellbeing is first and foremost. So we highly recommend that you do get treatment immediately. If you don't go to the hospital, you should at least go to an urgent care center and get checked out before you can make it back home to Canada.Â
Andrew will discuss the various healthcare coverage options for Canadians, including extended healthcare coverage through employers, spouse or family members, travel insurance, and auto insurance coverage.Â
3. Speak To A Lawyer As Soon As You Can
Speak to a lawyer as soon as you can. As daunting as US healthcare expenses might be, put your healthcare first and your wellbeing first and then let us help you get it paid for through the various avenues available to you as a Canadian.
Should you be speaking to a lawyer in Florida or in Canada? Having carved a unique niche for personal injury in both Canada and the United States, Andrew will discuss the benefits of speaking to a lawyer who assists Canadians on both sides of the border.
