It can be difficult to determine whether or not medical negligence has occurred in any given situation. Often, the patient or their family only know that an unexpected outcome has occurred, but they may not know how or why it happened. We can help. We understand the medicine and we know the law. We can review the situation in detail with you and provide you with the guidance necessary to figure out whether there is a basis for a claim in medical negligence.

If you or a loved one has experienced an adverse outcome following medical treatment, contact us at 1.866.212.8068 for a free, no-obligation consultation.

We understand that people who are dealing with a serious injury or adverse outcome can be under a great deal of financial pressure, especially if their condition is affecting their ability to work or requires significant care costs. We are willing to act for seriously injured persons or their families on a contingency basis, which means we will be paid on a percentage of recovery basis when your case is settled or once a verdict is obtained at trial. The percentage rate will vary based on the situation, but you will not pay our legal fees during the litigation. We are only paid if we are successful. We will go through all of this information with you in detail before we start working on your case.

There is no set timeframe and complex cases can take years to properly prepare for trial. We believe that an early and thorough investigation of all potential claims is the best way of ensuring that your case can be pursued as quickly and efficiently as possible. We will always do our best to move your case forward as quickly as possible.

Generally, the Limitations Act gives claimants two years from the date of discovery of a legal claim to file said claim. Discovery being when the injured person first knew they had suffered an injury, that the injury was caused in whole or in part by the act or omission of the person the claim is being made against (in this case, a medical practitioner), and that legal proceedings would be an effective resolution/remedy for the injury. While the general limitation period applies to birth injuries as well, it does have one important difference: the limitation period doesn't apply to a child who has not reached the age of majority (18 years old). In other words, if a newborn is affected, until they reach 18 years old or a litigation guardian is appointed in relation to the claim, the limitation period does not apply.
