When a loved one suffers a brain injury, it can be an
overwhelming experience. The effects of a brain injury can
profoundly change the lives of the injured person and their family,
and you may find yourself asking whether your loved one is entitled
to any financial compensation. The short answer is, yes.
In Ontario, there are a few different options for seeking
financial compensation when a person suffers a brain injury as a
result of an accident.
STATUTORY ACCIDENT BENEFITS SCHEDULE (SABS)
If your relative's brain injury resulted from a motor
vehicle accident, whether as a driver, a passenger, a cyclist, or a
pedestrian, they are entitled to accident benefits under the
Statutory Accident Benefits Schedule (SABS).
