Noel Daley | Toronto Personal Injury Lawyer

In May, 2008 I represented an East Indian family that had been involved in a terrible car accident. The father and three children were hit while driving home. The father was pretty banged up with soft tissue and internal injuries. Sadly, two out of the three children had brain damage. The case was schedule for a trial on May 1, 2016. However, we settled before that date for $5M. The family received their payment by the end of 2016. I worked with another lawyer on that case, but I played a big role in its success.

I built a successful practice through hard work, natural talent, and pushing myself to be better. Both parents were hard workers - my father died at an early age and literally worked himself to death. My mom was employed as a janitor, then went back to school in her 40s to get a high school degree equivalent. She then worked as bookkeeper and a cook. She worked until age 69 and spent the last decade of her working life getting up 4:30 every morning to drive with a co-worker to a pond (12 miles into the woods) to cook for kids at biology camp. Then my three brothers and I went to law school and helped her out financially. I excelled academically, which I attribute to the work ethic I inherited from my parents and from natural talent. I am proud to say that I earned multiple scholarships throughout my academic career. Ambition and dedication got me through school, and I bring those same traits to my practice today. For that reason, I still love working, and I look forward to the new challenge that each day brings. I genuinely enjoy helping people and do a lot of pro bono work.

To be totally exhausted at the end of the day, knowing that I gave everything I had to help make someone's life better.
