All we do is injury law - and we've been doing it since 1999. We are seasoned trial lawyers with a proven track record. Many cases settle out of court, but some cases need to be taken to trial. At Bergeron | Clifford, we prepare every case for trial so that our clients have the best options - in court, and out of court.
We work with a variety of injuries, and are highly experienced with cases marked by catastrophic injury, including brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, amputation, disfigurement, chronic pain, birth injuries, and psychological injuries. You don't need an injury lawyer, until you do and when you do our lawyers will help you navigate this difficult time with the knowledge and skill required to get you the settlement or court result you need.

Services
At the end of a court case or when a case is resolved through an out of court settlement, the money that is paid for pain and suffering, medical bills, loss of income or any other types of losses are called "damages". Damages is the legal term for the financial compensation paid by a defendant or an insurance company to an injured person or their family.
Bergeron Clifford honored to be recognized in 16th edition of Best Lawyers in Canada 2021. Life after injury can be filled with uncertainty, which is why we want you to know what to expect at every stage of the process when pursuing a personal injury claim. We offer you an initial consultation about your injury at no charge.
We work on a contingency fee agreement basis.

Professional informative helpful knowledgeable. Warren was very helpful and responsive. He returns emails and phone calls in a timely manner. He was able to answer all questions we had about the process. If you have been in a car accident I recommend you contact them about your injuries. My Dr at the time was especially not helpful. Warren was able to suggest professions to contact for the applicable help. It is evident he has much experience in the personal injury world. Hopefully we don't require future assistance from a Lawyer, but if we did we wouldn't hesitate to contact Warren.

On July 25, 2018 we were suddenly faced with medical costs in the United States of more than $30,000CAN based on a claims adjustor’s opinion that we had misrepresented our case on our insurance application. Confident as we were that the adjustor was wrong, we still sought advice from Bergeron|Clifford on how to proceed.
They were terrific. At our one meeting they quickly reviewed and equally quickly understood the entire file. They expressed their confidence in our case and suggested a letter from Bergeron|Clifford outlining our position would be the best solution. They were right. The file

Having been through litigation twice now, I can say with certainty that Ted Bergeron and Chris Clifford have built a law firm that works at the highest level of integrity I've ever known in a business.
No wonder they are one of Canada's Top 10 law firms.
As bad as it got for me, and as badly as I perceive I behaved in response to my own legal/insurance process, the more I appreciate the legal wisdom, the kindness, grace, compassion and understanding I received from my lawyer (I have a stack of business cards and hand them out to everyone, especially people who travel for work). If an unexpected

Two years ago I hired Bergeron Clifford LLP to represent me. I could not have picked a better law firm.
They showed complete professionalism at all times, kept me continually informed as to the progress of the case, and every staff member I encountered was so pleasant and informative and obviously enjoyed the work they do.
I would not hesitate to recommend them most highly.

Chris Clifford immediately came to our home after my car accident and we were very impressed with his calm demeanor. His love of the law profession was evident and he explained the process very well. His staff were always on the ball and were very patient with us. We would highly recommend Bergeron Clifford LLP for their amazing staff and professionalism. Ross and Connie Shearer
