An unexpected injury can leave you facing far more than physical pain. Medical treatment, time away from work, insurance paperwork, and financial uncertainty can quickly become overwhelming, especially when your focus should be on recovery.
For more than 30 years, Van Dyke Law has represented clients throughout Eastern Ontario, helping injured individuals navigate Ontario’s personal injury system with confidence.
We believe every client deserves honest advice, responsive communication, and legal representation that’s tailored to their unique circumstances—not a one-size-fits-all approach.

As the largest community in the Bay of Quinte region, Belleville serves residents from across Hastings County, Quinte West, Prince Edward County, and neighbouring communities. With busy highways, commercial centres, healthcare facilities, and growing residential neighbourhoods, accidents can happen in many different settings.
When they do, our legal team is ready to help.
We manage every aspect of your claim, including gathering evidence, communicating with insurance companies, assessing damages, and negotiating for a fair resolution. If a settlement cannot be reached, we are prepared to advocate for your interests through litigation.
Our goal is to make the legal process as straightforward as possible while providing the guidance and support you need throughout your recovery.
Choosing a personal injury lawyer is an important decision. You need a legal team with experience, compassion, and a commitment to putting your interests first.
Frank Van Dyke has spent more than three decades representing injured individuals throughout Eastern Ontario. Our experience allows us to anticipate challenges, build strong claims, and pursue compensation that reflects the full impact of your injuries.
No two accidents affect people in the same way. We take the time to understand your medical, financial, and personal circumstances before developing a legal strategy designed around your specific needs.
Legal matters can feel overwhelming after a serious accident. We believe you should always understand where your claim stands, what comes next, and what options are available, so you’ll never be left wondering about the status of your case.
We regularly represent clients throughout Belleville and the surrounding Bay of Quinte area. Our familiarity with the local community and broader Eastern Ontario legal landscape allows us to provide practical, accessible legal support close to home.
Depending on the circumstances of your claim, you may be entitled to compensation for losses such as:
Medical Costs: Expenses related to treatment, medication, rehabilitation, assistive devices, and ongoing healthcare.
Lost Wages and Future Income: Compensation for time away from work, reduced earning capacity, or permanent limitations affecting employment.
Pain and Suffering: Damages that recognize the physical pain, emotional distress, and long-term impact your injuries have had on your quality of life.
Future Care Needs: Financial support for ongoing medical treatment, home care, mobility equipment, or home modifications that may be required during recovery.
Rehabilitation Services: Coverage for physiotherapy, counselling, occupational therapy, and other services that support your recovery and independence.
During your consultation, we’ll review your situation and explain the types of compensation that may be available based on the facts of your case.
We believe financial concerns shouldn’t prevent you from accessing experienced legal representation after a serious injury. That’s why Van Dyke Law handles personal injury claims on a contingency fee basis.

Personal injury claims may arise from motor vehicle collisions, workplace accidents, slips and falls, medical negligence, dog bites, and other situations where another person or organization failed to take reasonable care.
No. We represent personal injury clients on a contingency fee basis, meaning there are no upfront legal fees. We only collect our fees if we successfully recover compensation for you.
Not necessarily. While you’re welcome to visit our Belleville office, we can also arrange consultations at your home, in hospital, or virtually if travelling isn’t possible.
In most cases, Ontario’s limitation period is two years from the date of the injury. Because exceptions can apply, it’s important to seek legal advice as soon as possible.
Every claim is unique. The value of compensation depends on factors such as the severity of your injuries, medical expenses, lost income, future care needs, and the long-term impact on your life.
Seek medical attention, report the incident where appropriate, keep records relating to your injuries and expenses, and speak with an experienced personal injury lawyer before accepting a settlement from an insurance company.
