Car crashes, slips and falls, disability claims and medical malpractice. In British Columbia, under ICBC's Enhanced Care model it is not possible to sue for compensation after a crash except in limited circumstances; other injury claims can still go to court.

Personal Injury lawyers across CanadaUsually not. Under ICBC's Enhanced Care model it is not possible to sue for compensation except in limited circumstances — for example, if the at-fault driver is convicted of certain Criminal Code offences such as impaired driving. Instead, ICBC provides benefits, and disputes with ICBC go to the Civil Resolution Tribunal.
BC has a single two-year basic limitation period for civil claims. Time limits also apply to disputes with ICBC at the Civil Resolution Tribunal. A lawyer can confirm the dates that apply to you.
Disputes with ICBC about benefits, vehicle damage and some personal injury damages go to the Civil Resolution Tribunal. Other claims go to court: the Civil Resolution Tribunal decides most small claims up to $5,000, the Provincial Court hears small claims up to $35,000, and larger claims go to the Supreme Court.
