Join us for a 3-Part Webinar Series about Personal Injury Law & Brain Injury presented by our Corporate Platinum Sponsor PIA Law.

How can a Personal Injury Lawyer help someone who has a brain injury? When should you contact a personal injury lawyer?

Speaker: Brian Cameron of Oatley Vigmond

Register, HERE

Brian Cameron completed his LLB at Western University and was called to the bar in 2001. He joined Oatley Vigmond in 1999 and became a partner in 2008. Brian represents people who have sustained serious injuries and the families of those who have died. His practice focuses on resolving claims arising out of motor vehicle collisions, boating injuries, occupiers’ liability claims and products liability issues.

Brian enjoys the complexities of personal injury litigation, but when it gets right down to it, he finds cases where the help he provides actually makes a difference in the quality of his clients’ lives the most gratifying.

When asked what he likes most about practicing personal injury law, Brian states that he enjoys sharing a person’s life story, from before they were injured, with the Jury so that they can see that contrast as compelling evidence of how the Defendant drastically changed that individual’s life.

When Brian isn’t practicing law, he enjoys travelling and playing poker.

This session discusses the legal process in Ontario, and will give you a brief overview of each stage of litigation.
