Free consultationFree consultationAbout Kagan Law Firm
Kagan Law Firm is a Toronto personal injury and disability law practice founded by Daria Kagan, who has practised law since being called to the Ontario Bar in 2006. Kagan graduated from the University of Windsor Law School in 2005 and, before that, earned an honours degree in psychology with thesis from the University of Windsor in 1998, where the work included published research and a law school scholarship for academic excellence. Since the 2006 call to the bar, the practice has concentrated on plaintiff-side personal injury and disability law, representing adults and children with spinal cord and brain injuries, orthopedic injuries, and medical and neonatal malpractice claims, along with people pursuing disability insurance and critical illness claims.
The firm's litigation history includes matters at the Superior Court of Justice, the Ontario Court of Justice, the Divisional Court, and the Ontario Court of Appeal, along with administrative tribunals such as the Financial Services Commission of Ontario and the License Appeal Tribunal. Cases are handled on a contingency basis, so clients don't pay fees unless a claim settles or succeeds. The office sits at 1 Dundas St. W. in downtown Toronto, and staff are fluent in Croatian, Serbian, Punjabi, Hindi, Gujarati, and Urdu, with translators arranged for other languages at no charge.

The neighbourhood
Kagan Law Firm's office, Unit 2500 of 1 Dundas St. W., is inside one of four office towers built into the Toronto Eaton Centre complex at Yonge and Dundas in downtown Toronto. The complex sits above two TTC subway stations, so the office is reachable by transit without a car. The firm notes on its site that its office is wheelchair accessible, a detail that matters for a practice built around clients recovering from serious injury and disability.
Frequently asked questions
- Does Kagan Law Firm handle car accident claims in Toronto?
- Yes. The firm's practice areas include motor vehicle accidents involving cars, motorcycles, boating, and snowmobiles, along with related insurance claim disputes.
- I don't speak English. Can Kagan Law Firm still help me?
- The firm has staff who are fluent in Croatian, Serbian, Punjabi, Hindi, Gujarati, and Urdu. For other languages, it arranges a translator at no charge so communication isn't a barrier.
- How much does it cost to speak with a lawyer, and what are the fees if Kagan Law Firm takes my case?
- There's no charge to speak with a lawyer at the firm. Cases are handled on a contingency basis, so you don't pay any fees unless and until your case is successfully resolved, and fees are then a percentage of the settlement.
- Does Kagan Law Firm handle WSIB claims?
- No, the firm doesn't handle WSIB matters and will refer those cases elsewhere. It can still help if you have a related private disability insurance claim, such as long term or short term disability benefits, alongside a WSIB claim.
- How long does a personal injury case take to settle in Ontario?
- According to the firm, most personal injury cases take about 1 to 3 years to reach a settlement, depending on factors like how long it takes doctors to provide a long term prognosis. About 98% of personal injury cases settle rather than going to trial, and cases that do proceed to trial usually take around 3 years to get there.
- Is there a deadline to start a personal injury lawsuit in Ontario?
- In most cases, Ontario law sets a 2 year limitation period for starting a lawsuit against someone who caused an injury, though other deadlines can apply depending on the circumstances. This is general information, not legal advice, and you should confirm the deadline that applies to your specific situation.
