Personal Injury

Once retained to represent you, Burger Smith & Urdahl Law will take care of all steps involved in advancing your claim. Our skilled legal team communicates directly with the insurance company and handles all aspects of your personal injury claim so that you can focus on your recovery and treatment. Settlement of your claim can come at any stage depending on the circumstances.

Burger Smith & Urdahl offers to pursue your personal injury claim under a contingency fee agreement. This means you only pay our legal fees when you receive compensation.

Despite recent changes at ICBC, Burger Smith & Urdahl continues to represent clients who have been injured in car, motorcycle, bicycle and slip and fall accidents.
