What is the difference between a plaintiff and his lawyer in a personal injury case?

British Columbia, Canada


The following excerpt is from Harms v. British Columbia (Attorney General), 2015 BCSC 1309 (CanLII):

He says that she was wrong about this for two reasons: 1. on the merits of whether or not he indeed has such a right to drive, and 2. because she considered his arguments in light of the Alberta case of Meads v. Meads, 2012 ABQB 571, and the reliance on that indicates she was biased against him. I will deal with those in reverse order.
