Criminal Defence in Provincial Court and the Court of King’s Bench
The Provincial Court of New Brunswick hears most charges. Indictable matters and jury trials go to the Court of King’s Bench. The firm defends assault, drug, impaired driving (DUI), theft and sexual assault charges. The Crown has twelve months from the offence to lay a summary conviction charge. An indictable offence has no limitation.
Section B Benefits and the Claim Against the At-Fault Driver in New Brunswick
The injury side covers the New Brunswick claim types listed at injury law areas: car accidents, pedestrian injuries, trip and fall, long-term disability (LTD) denials, fatal injuries and boat accident claims on the bay and the river.
Section B accident benefits and the minor personal injury cap, both under the New Brunswick Insurance Act, matter from the first week of a motor vehicle claim. Section B accident benefits come with every New Brunswick auto policy and pay for treatment and a share of lost income whether or not you were at fault. The minor personal injury cap limits pain and suffering damages where the injury fits the regulation’s definition, and the cap figure moves each year with indexing. Most claims have two years from discovery, so open the file early.
A Section B claim goes to your own insurer. The claim against the at-fault driver is a separate action. Both are run together because the benefits already paid come off the damages, and the law limits how much, so the two files have to agree.
The firm’s largest decisions are Allen v. Doiron, 2026 NBKB 049 and Trainor v. DeArcos, 2025 NBCA 131. Both are described at injury law results.
