Serious Injury Cases
At Kimball Law, we understand that all injuries are serious to you. Regardless of the type of injury you have suffered, we have experienced lawyers who can assist you in getting the compensation that you deserve. We have access to a number of medical and other experts to help diagnose and quantify your claim. If you suffered injuries as a result of someone else’s fault, contact us to set up a free, no obligation consultation at any of our three locations, or we can come to you if your injuries prevent you from coming to us.
Fatal Injury Cases
Has a loved one suffered fatal injuries at the fault of someone else? This can be a very upsetting and stressful time which is why it is very important to get legal advice as early as possible. The time for starting a claim in court for a fatal injury is less than it is in a regular motor vehicle accident or other type of accident case. There are certain classes of relatives that can bring a claim as a result of a loved one’s fatal injury. Contact us to set up your free, no obligation consultation at any of our three locations.
Motor Vehicle Accidents
Whether you were in an accident involving a car, truck, motorcycle or bicycle or hit by any type of vehicle, we have experience in dealing with these claims. If your accident occurred in Nova Scotia, the government has limited the amount you can recover if your injury is considered a “minor injury”. Do not assume that your injury is “minor” even if that is what you are being told by the insurance company.
When you are in a motor vehicle or pedestrian accident, there are a number of different types of insurance that you may have access to in order to help you out with expenses, etc. If you have your own insurance, Section B insurance coverage could help you with medical and wage loss. If the other driver does not have insurance, your Section D insurance coverage will respond to a claim. In some cases, clients have difficulty with their own insurance company, and we help them get benefits and compensation they deserve.

Slip and Fall Injuries
In Nova Scotia, there is a duty on occupiers of premises to ensure that everyone who enters upon them is reasonably safe while on the premises. This applies to owners, occupiers, tenants or other persons or entities that occupy stores, restaurants, housing or other public places.
Whether you slip on ice or water, trip on concrete, fall in a hole or injure yourself in any other unsafe situation, we handle all types of slip and fall cases. If you suffered injuries as a result of a slip, trip or fall, contact us to set up a free, no obligation consultation at any of our three locations, or we can come to you if your injuries prevent you from coming to us.
Disability Claims
Have you applied and been refused for disability insurance benefits or have your disability insurance benefits been terminated? Most claims are denied or terminated because the insurance company claims that the insured person does not meet the definition of disabled. We understand how upsetting it can be to be injured or suffer from an illness and be denied benefits after you have paid into the disability plan or insurance policy premiums. We also handle Canada Pension Plan benefit denials. If you have been denied benefits by your insurer and are not being treated fairly, contact us to set up a free, no obligation consultation at one of our three locations to discuss your options.
Canada Pension Plan
Have you applied and been refused for Canada Pension Plan regular or disability benefits? Most claims are denied or terminated because the government claims that the insured person does not meet the definition of disabled. We understand how upsetting it can be to be injured or suffer from an illness and be denied benefits after you have paid into the Canada Pension Plan. If you have been denied Canada Pension Plan benefits and are not being treated fairly, contact us to set up a free, no obligation consultation to discuss your options.
2-Track System: Preparing to Settle and to Fight
At Kimball Law, we give our clients total control over all of the possible options for their case. You will be given the final decisions on all matters pertaining to the results and outcome of your case.
Many of our clients don’t want to go to court, for several reasons. It can be daunting and overwhelming for our clients. Some clients also feel that there is a larger inherent risk in taking their case to trial as opposed to the security of a settlement.
While the final decision is left to our client, the lawyers at Kimball Law prepare for the best settlement possible, to reduce the time you need to wait for compensation.
Simultaneously, we are preparing for trial in the case that the insurance company is uncooperative during settlement discussions.
Experienced Lawyers & Litigators
Because Derrick Kimball has been practicing law for more than 40 years himself. Because of his over 4 decades of trial and litigation experience, he and his team of Tort and Litigation lawyers have a great understanding of what your case is worth.
Be In the Know
Taking action against an insurance company for a denied claim or an in adequate claim can take time. It’s important to understand that receiving a successful result can take time. There’s a lot of back and forth between the insurance adjusters, opposing council and between you (the client) and your lawyer.
At every step of the process, you can expect to be given updates. Our firm’s line is always open to receive your call should you have any questions throughout the duration of your case.
