Traveling can be full of exciting adventures, but an unexpected accident can quickly turn everything upside down. For Canadians injured while visiting the U.S., knowing your rights and the necessary steps to secure assistance can make all the difference. Here’s a guide on what to do if you find yourself in this situation.

Firstly, prioritize your health. Even without travel health insurance, seek medical attention if necessary, especially in serious cases. While U.S. medical costs can be high, many healthcare providers will work with you on payment terms, especially if you have legal representation.

If someone else is at fault, your claim may cover medical costs, and many providers will agree to delay payment until your case is resolved. In some situations, your attorney may even be able to negotiate bill reductions, potentially saving you substantial costs.

Choosing whether to hire a lawyer in the U.S. or Canada is another decision that requires careful thought. Consulting a cross-border injury lawyer before rushing into representation can provide you with valuable guidance. For Canadians dealing with U.S.-based injuries, seeking legal advice early can ease the process and maximize your claim's success.
