Murray Ross talks about the substantial changes brought in by the government in 2019, and they will affect your ICBC cases.
In April 2019, the government brought in some substantial changes to the laws governing ICBC and personal injury cases in British Columbia. One of the most substantial changes was the cap system, whereby personal injury claims for pain and suffering are capped at a maximum of fifty five hundred dollars. In this process, they defined the term minor injury and other minor injury is a rather broad definition and includes such things as minor traumatic brain injury and psychiatric conditions under this new system. It's likely that most people with personal injuries, even chronic conditions, are going to be captured under the definition of minor injury. But there are ways to get out of that cap system, and that's one of the main reasons why you should consult with a lawyer to see if you're able to do that. Once you're out of the cap system, then it's business as usual, so to speak.
