GROVER LAW FIRM

Injured in a Car Accident in the United States?

Canada–U.S. Cross-Border Injury Lawyers

Being seriously injured in a motor vehicle accident while travelling in the United States can leave Alberta residents facing overwhelming medical bills, unfamiliar legal systems, and uncertainty about where to turn for help. U.S. healthcare costs are among the highest in the world, and cross-border injury claims often involve multiple insurers, jurisdictions, and legal rules.

When an accident occurs south of the border, your case may involve two countries, two insurance frameworks, and separate legal processes. Without experienced guidance, critical benefits and compensation can be delayed—or missed entirely.

Grover Law Firm represents Albertans injured in serious motor vehicle accidents in the United States. The firm works with trusted U.S. personal injury lawyers while managing Alberta insurance benefits, ensuring injured clients receive coordinated, results-focused legal representation on both sides of the border.

If your injuries are serious, your legal representation should be as well.

    What Is a Canada–U.S. Cross-Border Car Accident Claim?

    A Canada–U.S. cross-border injury claim arises when:

    • The motor vehicle accident occurs in the United States
    • The injured person is an Alberta resident
    • Insurance coverage, medical treatment, and legal responsibility span both countries

    These claims are significantly more complex than standard Alberta injury cases. Liability is governed by the law of the U.S. state where the collision occurred, while Alberta automobile insurance policies may still provide critical benefits for medical care, income replacement, and long-term recovery.

    Grover Law Firm helps injured Albertans navigate these complexities with clarity and precision.

    How Do U.S. and Alberta Laws Affect Your Injury Claim?

    Understanding Cross-Border Injury Law

    Cross-border injury claims involve overlapping legal systems, including:

    • U.S. state negligence and liability laws 
    • Alberta automobile insurance regulations 
    • Medical billing and reimbursement across jurisdictions 
    • Long-term care planning for catastrophic injuries 

    The U.S. state where the accident occurred determines fault, liability, and damages, while Alberta insurance policies often remain essential for accessing benefits and coverage.

    Without proper coordination, insurers may attempt to shift responsibility or limit payouts. Grover Law Firm ensures that no aspect of your claim is overlooked.

    Alberta Insurance Coverage After a U.S. Accident

    Alberta’s automobile insurance system provides access to certain benefits regardless of fault, including medical and rehabilitation coverage. However, Alberta’s Care-Driven model limits the ability to sue for damages within the province.

    When an accident happens in the United States, U.S. liability laws apply, potentially allowing injured Albertans to pursue compensation through the American legal system. At the same time, Alberta insurance benefits may still apply to treatment, income replacement, and recovery support.

    Grover Law Firm coordinates Alberta insurance benefits while working with experienced co-counsel throughout the United States to pursue liability claims where the accident occurred.

    Why Extended Third-Party Liability Coverage Matters in the U.S.

    Albertans travelling or driving in the United States should strongly consider extended third-party liability insurance. Higher coverage limits can be essential in U.S. injury cases, where damage awards and medical expenses often far exceed Canadian norms.

    Extended coverage may help protect you if:

    • You are sued in a U.S. court

    • Medical costs exceed standard policy limits

    • Long-term care or catastrophic injury support is required

    Grover Law Firm reviews insurance coverage carefully to identify all available sources of compensation.

    Frequently Asked Questions About Canada–U.S. Cross-Border Injury Claims

    What is a Canada–U.S. cross-border injury claim?

    A cross-border injury claim involves a motor vehicle accident that occurs in the United States but affects an Alberta resident and involves both Canadian and American legal systems.

    Do Alberta laws still apply if I’m injured in the U.S.?

    U.S. state laws govern fault and liability, while Alberta insurance laws may still apply to benefits and coverage.

    Can I sue if Alberta has no-fault insurance?

    Yes. Alberta’s system limits lawsuits within the province, but accidents occurring in the United States fall under U.S. liability laws.

    Do I need both a Canadian and a U.S. lawyer?

    In many cases, yes. A U.S. lawyer handles the claim where the accident occurred, while a Canadian lawyer coordinates Alberta insurance benefits and recovery planning.

    Are U.S. medical bills covered?

    Coverage may come from Alberta insurance benefits, extended third-party liability coverage, and U.S. personal injury claims.

    Case Results

    • I suffered a brain injury and other serious injuries when the car I was driving was struck by a semi-truck. In addition to my physical injuries I experienced psychological injuries and was wholly unable to do my job or live my life daily. The insurance company offered me $6,500.00 to settle my claim. Steve had my back and brought my case to mediation where he obtained $850,000.00 in compensation one month short of trial. Steve has the trucking expertise to understand the process and was available to me throughout the process. Would absolutely recommend Grover Law Firm to anyone that has been injured in a serious trucking crash.
