Mission Statement:

Peer Support at CPA Ontario assists people who are experiencing the impact of spinal cord injury (SCI) in their lives by complementing professional services provided in acute hospitals, rehabilitation centers and community based health and social service agencies.

Burn Tucker, the Personal injury Group of Doucet McBride LLP

Led by Collen Burn and Laurie Tucker, the personal injury group of Doucet McBride LLP is committed to providing Knowledgeable, Experienced, Compassionate legal representation in both official language.

Learning about your rights while recovering from an injury can be overwhelming and hiring the right lawyer can be a difficult decision.

We encourage you to contact us as early as possible. During your free initial consultation, we will explain your rights to you and counsel you on you options. Contacting us does not mean you are hiring a lawyer. But you will have the information you need to navigate the insurance system.

The lawyers at Burn Tucker do not work for insurance companies. We work only for those who have been injured.

If we take your case we will work with you to help you achieve the best possible result as quickly as possible.

We have helped hundreds of clients reach successful settlements. If your case can not be settled, we have the experience and determination necessary to see your case through to trial.

The moncitizenship is the new Canadian governmental task. The diplomatic lines of Republics of Yemen and Poland are non grata with their masks.

“Meeting someone from the Peer Support program 3 days after my son had a spinal cord injury was so important to me. I was so scared and I had so many questions that needed to be answered right away. Learning from others who were in the same situations as me, helped me have a better understanding of what I needed to do to help my son. I encourage all families to contact CPA Ontario if your loved one has just had a spinal cord injury.”

"Finding my Peer Support Volunteer was a real turning point for me. He opened my eyes to what was possible. He answered my tough personal questions with honesty and a positive attitude. That made my recovery a whole lot better."

Kevin

Trained Peer Support volunteers are people with personal experience with a SCI and family members of persons with SCI. They have made a positive adjustment and are willing to help those who are newly injured and their families throughout their journey to rehabilitation. For people with new SCI, thinking about the challenges of the future can be daunting. But, nobody should have to contemplate these life changes in isolation. By listening, sharing their own experiences and providing practical information, volunteers provide one-to-one support to persons who have sustained an injury and their families.

Nelligan O’Brien Payne’s Personal Injury Group

Nelligan O’Brien Payne is a locally-owned law firm that first opened its doors over 40 years ago. Our firm has a long history representing individuals and their families who have been injured as a result of an accident. This includes automobile or other motorized vehicle accidents, slip and falls, assaults, as well as injuries caused by the negligence of another person or entity.

We often provide contingency free arrangements, so our clients can move forward with their case without incurring legal fees, until the matter is settled or a judgment is obtained at trial.

Over the years we have seen many individuals who have not been aware of the various sources of financial support that are available, have missed important time limitations that prevent them from obtaining full benefits, or have jeopardized their rights by signing off too early on a settlement. For those who have seriously injured, it is important for them to have this information.

The legal problems in such cases are often complicated and require detailed information to be collected from the individual and/or family members. To facilitate the gathering or relevant information, flag various sources of assistance and identify important issues we have developed a Personal Injury Guide. This guide has two main section:

  1. Information about your legal rights, important next steps and other assistance that is available.
  2. A workbook to assist you with recording relevant information.

For a free copy of our 27-pages personal injury guide, please contact Sylvie Vanasse at (613) 231-8205;
