Up-front and Transparent Pricing
We work on what’s called a contingency fee, which means our fee is a percentage of the settlement we recover for you, and you’ll know that percentage before you choose to hire us.
Our team covers the cost of disbursements during your claim, so you won’t pay us anything while your claim progresses. Your focus during this time is your recovery, while we handle the legal work.
You Get Your Own Personal Legal Team (Pod)
At Litco Law, you don’t just get a lawyer. You get your own personal legal team that will be with you throughout the course of your claim. We call this team a “pod.” It includes a lawyer, a case manager, a client care specialist, and a legal assistant.

Personal Injury Cases We Handle
With decades of experience practicing personal injury law, our Calgary legal team is standing by ready to assist with a variety of personal injury claims, including:
Motor Vehicle Accidents
Following an accident, you may be faced with the loss of ability to work, the loss of a vehicle, plus endless paperwork and insurance companies to deal with – all while trying to recover from your injuries.
If you’ve been injured in an accident, talking to a Calgary car accident lawyer can significantly impact your recovery and the compensation you may be entitled to.
Some Common Motor Vehicle Accident Cases We Handle Include:
Premises Liability
If you were injured on someone else’s property, it’s important to know that property owners, managers, and other occupiers have a legal responsibility to take reasonable care to keep people safe. If you were invited, allowed, or legally on the property, you should be able to use it without being exposed to preventable risks.
While the most common injuries arising from unsafe property conditions are from slip and fall accidents, various other types of injuries, such as environmental hazards or structural failures, are frequently seen as well.
Catastrophic Injuries
If you suffered a serious or long-term injury in an accident, our team understands the difficulties you’re facing and can help you navigate this challenging time. We have decades of experience representing individuals with life-altering injuries and handling claims on their behalf, taking the legal burden off their shoulders.
Some Common Catastrophic Injury Cases We Handle Include:
- Traumatic brain injuries
- Spinal cord injuries
- Amputations
- Severe burns
- Severe bone fractures that cannot be properly fixed
- Injuries that cause loss or significant impairment of sight, smell, taste, or touch
Defective Product Liability
Many people assume that if they were injured as a result of using a product, it must be because they did something wrong or failed to follow instructions. But just because you suffered an injury when using a product doesn’t mean it was your fault. The product may not have been properly designed, manufactured, or sold.
If you have been injured by a dangerous product, a Calgary defective product lawyer can answer all of your questions.
Fatal Accidents and Wrongful Death
If someone you love was killed as a result of the negligence of another person, we can help. Our firm has decades of experience with wrongful death and fatality claims all across Alberta. We are sensitive to your needs and your emotional state during such a difficult time, and our goal is to take as much of the burden off your shoulders as is possible.
It won’t cost you anything to talk to one of our Calgary wrongful death lawyers, and we don’t get paid until we successfully resolve your claim.
While these are some of the most common types of accidents we see, we may be able to assist you with your injury claim even if it isn’t on this list. Contact us to speak to our legal team for free today.

Personal Injury Law Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
We asked our lawyers to give us their responses to the top questions people ask about injury claims, so we could share them with you before you even have to ask.
How do I know if I have a case?
It’s best to speak with a Calgary personal injury lawyer to answer this question. An injury lawyer will gather all the details about your accident and injuries needed to determine if you have a case. Based on that information, the lawyer will be able to tell you what legal options are available to you.
And if it isn’t in your best interest to file a claim, we’ll tell you that too.
How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in Calgary?
You typically have up to two years from the date of an accident to make a personal injury claim in court, or your right to do so is lost forever. But it’s important not to wait as other important deadlines or circumstances may affect the deadline or your claim.
I can’t afford a lawyer. What’s this going to cost me?
Talking with a personal injury lawyer at Litco Law is absolutely free. Many injury victims are unable to work and stressed about their finances – your personal injury lawyer shouldn’t add to your stress.
If you decide you want us to represent you, we’ll never charge you any fees while your claim is in progress. We’ll also pay upfront for any disbursement costs and collect them back only if and when your claim is successful – this includes everything from obtaining medical reports to any other expenses that are needed to reach a settlement.
What happens in a free consultation?
At this stage, most people want to find out if they are eligible to file a claim. Most consultations last approximately 60 minutes, although your appointment may run longer if more time is needed to gather important details and answer all your questions.
Learn more about the steps for a personal injury claim so you can know more about the process and what to expect.
How much is a personal injury claim worth?
In Alberta, courts take into account how severe your injuries are, and how long they last when determining the amount of compensation you are entitled to. For example, a person who is completely paralyzed for life will be entitled to more compensation for pain and suffering than someone with a broken hand.
When can I settle my claim?
Before calculating the value of an injury claim it is important that you are either 100% healed from your injuries, or as healed as you can ever be expected to be. This is known as Maximum Medical Improvement or MMI.
It can take months or even years to fully realize the extent and impact of your injuries and the amount of money your claim is worth. Settling too quickly is often not in your best interest. That said, if your injuries are minor or heal quickly, your claim could be complete within a few months.

The sooner you talk to a lawyer, the better.
After receiving medical care and assessment, it is important to call an accident lawyer as soon as you can. Although in most cases you technically have up to two years from the date of your accident to file a claim, there are deadlines – some as early as 30 days after the date of injury – which may be important to your case.
The days and weeks following an accident are also the most vital for gathering evidence and collecting important information. The sooner you contact a Calgary personal injury lawyer after your accident, the better. Witnesses are easier to track down. Memories are fresh. And it’s a lot easier to gather compelling photographic and physical evidence.
