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 $40,000 for minor injuries, $50,000 to $150,000 for moderate ones, $150,000 to $350,000 for serious permanent injuries, and up to the national cap of about $470,000 for catastrophic ones. The total is then reduced by your share of fault under Quebec law.
Quebec 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 3 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.
- Car accidents
- Special rules apply in Quebec; see below.
Car accidents in Quebec
In Quebec, the SAAQ compensates injuries from a road accident whoever caused it, including pedestrians and cyclists hit by a vehicle, and you cannot sue anyone for those injuries.
This applies to anyone hurt in a crash involving a vehicle, including pedestrians, cyclists and passengers. Slip and fall, dog bite, medical malpractice and other injuries follow the ordinary rules above.
