Mohamed Elbassiouni

Mohamed Elbassiouni isn’t just a personal injury lawyer; he’s a relentless advocate for accident victims, particularly those facing the devastating consequences of catastrophic impairment. As head of his firm’s Accident Benefits team, Mohamed tackles the most complex and challenging cases, consistently securing crucial benefits for his clients—including a record-breaking settlement exceeding $1.8 million for a single client.

His deep understanding of accident benefits law is further solidified by his LL.M. from Osgoode Hall Law School and a Certificate in Adjudication. A current student at Harvard Law School, Mohamed constantly refines his legal knowledge to better serve his clients.

Mohamed’s dedication extends beyond individual cases. He was hand-picked for the International Academy of Independent Medical Evaluators’ subcommittee, where he worked to strengthen the rigor of the CMLE exam. He is renowned for challenging the status quo, including challenging the constitutionality of the Minor Injury Guideline (MIG) in Abyan and Sovereign Insurance Company—a landmark decision where he achieved a first-of-its-kind ruling declaring portions of the MIG unconstitutional.

His proven track record includes landmark victories, from securing substantial interest awards exceeding $95,000 to winning complex “extreme mental impairment” disputes against teams of senior insurance lawyers, as seen in his reported decisions before the LAT and other tribunals. (See list below). He’s fluent in both English and Arabic, further expanding his ability to serve a diverse clientele. With over 17 years of experience, Mohamed is committed to leveling the playing field and ensuring accident victims receive the fair and just compensation they deserve.
