At Howard Yegendorf & Associates, our clients in truck accident cases are individuals and families in Ottawa whose lives have been forever altered and whose physical injuries are the most catastrophic imaginable.
After an accident, accident victims often face a life of pain and suffering; life as they knew it has been forever changed. Combined, our lawyers have nearly 50 years of personal injury and wrongful death experience. They are committed to helping injury victims and their families cope with life after an accident and pursue the full compensation they are entitled to for their injuries and other damages.

If you or a loved one has been injured, it is important to contact our lawyers as soon as possible to discuss your legal rights in a free initial consultation. We have consultation offices in Ottawa, Toronto and the GTA, and throughout Eastern Ontario.
