This authoritative guide on catastrophic impairment law in Canada takes a deep dive on the subject, comparing the different provincial regimes across the country, exposing inconsistencies and proposing solutions to redress inequities. Drawing on his extensive experience representing clients who have suffered a catastrophic injury and are faced with exorbitant costs of recovery, in this new publication Catastrophic Impairment Law in Canada, lawyer and author Andrew L. Rudder undertakes a comprehensive examination of catastrophic impairment law in Canada, both on a provincial and a national level. A Thorough Review Unlike other titles in this practice area, Catastrophic Impairment Law in Canada is less of an assessment of personal injury damages and more of an analysis of how and why a certain assessment was given. In particular, Rudder explores: Ontario’s significant changes to the definition of “automatic catastrophic impairment” for children that came into effect on June 1, 2016 The issue of discrimination based on geography, and the effect it has on children who are left with inadequate accident benefits coverage The differences between public and private auto insurance regimes, presented in an easy-to-read chart format The regimes currently in place in each province, including the administration, benefits and right to proceed with a tort lawsuit in each jurisdiction The inconsistencies in the auto insurance regimes throughout Canada and offers solutions that will ensure consistency across the country This book will also appeal to lawyers and students who are interested in advocating for social justice. Because of inconsistent catastrophic impairment designations and discrimination based on geography, Rudder argues that the law as it currently stands has a disproportionately negative impact on marginalized members of society. He encourages readers to work on making the legal system better and more equitable. In short, this volume demonstrates how a lawyer’s role can extend beyond advocating for their client to include also advocating for the broader community and social justice issues. Informative and Comprehensive Catastrophic Impairment Law in Canada would be a useful acquisition for a range of readers, including: Civil litigation lawyers who will rely on it as a resource when dealing with personal injury matters Judges who will refer to it for guidance during trials Law students who want to learn about the different auto insurance regimes and catastrophic impairment laws across Canada Social justice advocates who are examining the effects of laws on marginalized members of society and are looking for ways to improve the legal system
