    At first kazlaw came across to me as a good choice. After a bit more than 2 years into my attempts to get the help I needed in dealing with legal matters and the proper medical help to actually help me, not just the final settlement amount, they proved beyond any shadow of a doubt they were not capa…

About this Personal Injury Settlement Calculator

Canadian courts do not use the multiplier method. This calculator adds your financial losses (treatment and care costs, and lost income) to a pain-and-suffering range for your level of injury, based on typical Canadian awards: about $5,000 to $35,000 for minor injuries, $35,000 to $100,000 for moderate ones, $100,000 to $225,000 for serious permanent injuries, and up to the national cap of about $470,000 for the most catastrophic ones. Where in that range a case falls depends on the factors Canadian courts weigh (the Stapley factors): your age, the nature of the injury, how severe and long-lasting the pain is, disability, emotional suffering, and how much it affects your work, hobbies, relationships and independence. Because core medical treatment in Canada is publicly funded, what you spent on treatment is not used as a measure of how serious the injury is. The total is then reduced by your share of fault under British Columbia law.

British Columbia rules this calculator applies

Fault rule
Shared fault (apportionment). Your payout drops by your share of fault, but being partly at fault never bars your claim.
Pain and suffering cap
About $470,000 anywhere in Canada, reserved for the most catastrophic injuries (the Supreme Court of Canada cap, indexed for inflation).
Deadline to file
Generally 2 years from when you knew, or ought to have known, about the injury and its cause. Claims against a municipality or other public body often need written notice much sooner.
Sexual assault
Treated differently: the cap on pain and suffering does not apply, and many provinces, including British Columbia, have no limitation period for these claims.
Wrongful death
Not covered by this calculator. Who may claim after a death, and what they may claim, differs from province to province; in British Columbia, for example, pain and suffering cannot be claimed after death. A lawyer can tell you what applies.
Not included
Cost of future care and in-trust awards (for family members who cared for you) can add substantially to a serious claim. A lawyer will assess them.
Car accidents
Special rules apply in British Columbia; see below.

Car accidents in British Columbia

Since May 1, 2021, most injuries from vehicle crashes in British Columbia are covered by ICBC Enhanced Care benefits rather than a lawsuit, regardless of who caused the crash. There are, however, exceptions where an injured person may still have the right to sue. A lawyer can advise you whether an exception applies to your case.

This applies to anyone hurt in a crash involving a vehicle, including pedestrians, cyclists and passengers. Slip and fall and dangerous premises, defective products, assaults, dog bites, sports injuries, and medical or dental negligence follow the ordinary rules above.

General information about British Columbia law, not legal advice, and the estimate is not a guarantee of any outcome. A lawyer can tell you how these rules apply to your case.

Frequently asked questions

8 questions
How does the personal injury settlement calculator work?
The calculator estimates your settlement by adding financial losses and a range for pain and suffering, then adjusting for your share of fault.
How does shared fault affect my settlement in Vancouver?
Your settlement decreases by your share of fault, but being partly at fault doesn't stop your claim.
What is the time limit for personal injury claims in British Columbia?
The basic limitation period is 2 years from when you knew or should have known about the injury and its cause.
What happens after a car accident in British Columbia?
Since May 2021, ICBC Enhanced Care covers injuries from vehicle crashes, except if the at-fault driver is criminally convicted.
Should I accept the first insurance offer?
It's often wise to review the offer carefully and consider consulting a professional before accepting.
How long do personal injury claims take in Vancouver?
The duration varies widely based on case complexity, negotiation, and court schedules.
What medical documentation is important for my claim?
Accurate medical records detailing your injuries and treatments are crucial for supporting your claim.
How do contingency fees affect my net settlement?
