Important Information For Motorcyclists And Their Passengers

If you are involved in a motorcycle accident and have been injured, you (and your passenger) can seek compensation from the negligent driver and benefits from your own insurance company. The amount of compensation and benefits you will be eligible for will be based on the severity of the injuries and other factors.

If you intend to apply for accident benefits, you must notify your insurance company within seven days of the accident or as soon as practicable after. Once notice has been provided, your insurer will ask you to complete an Application for Benefits Form (also known as the OCF-1 Form), which, upon receiving, you have 30 days to submit.

If you or a loved one has suffered injuries as a result of a motorcycle accident in Ontario, please contact any of Thomson Rogers’ Personal Injury Lawyers. It is important that you receive proper assistance as soon as possible so there are no delays in your claim for accident benefits.
