Ontario Medical Malpractice Lawyer

Toronto Lawyer for Medical Mistakes and Medical Negligence Claims

Medical malpractice in Ontario occurs when your doctor, hospital, nurse or other health care provider, deviates from the acceptable professional standard of care. If an Ontario doctor, surgeon, hospital, or other medical provider deviates from the accepted standard of care in rendering treatment, which results in injury or death, then that medical provider may be liable for damages. Although the majority of health care providers in Ontario do good work, mistakes are sometimes made - doctors are human.

A Toronto medical malpractice lawyer can help you evaluate whether medical malpractice occured and, if so, seek damages for your losses.  Although the medical malpractice claim is commenced against the negligent health care provider, there is insurance in place for such losses.

Do I have a Ontario Medical Malpractice Case?  Talk To a Toronto Medical Malpractice Lawyer

Not every bad outcome in medicine is the result of medical malpractice.  Almost all medical procedures have some amount of risk, and some illnesses cannot be cured despite the best medical care and treatment. But when a minor or routine procedure in Ontario results in serious injuries, such as paralysis, loss of limb, organ damage or death, it is clear that something went horribly wrong. In such cases, it is important to determine whether the medical providers missed or ignored warning signs, or failed to order the appropriate tests.  It is time to speak with a Toronto medical malpractice lawyer.

Due to the complexity and expense associated with medical malpractice claims, our threshold for taking on Ontario medical malpractice claims is high — there must be a disabling, life-threatening or fatal outcome, not merely a mistake that caused no lasting harm. In order to be successful in your claim, we must prove that the doctor did not do what other physicians, nurses or other hospital staff, would have reasonably done in the same situation.

Determining whether you have a medical malpractice claim requires a detailed review of your medical records and, often, consultation with a medical professional.  As such, we will need to obtain and review your medical and hospital records.  If, after reviewing the medical records, we are of the opinion that there is some indication of malpractice, we will proceed with retaining a medical expert to provide a preliminary opinion. In order to advance your claim for medical malpractice, it is necessary to have a medical expert opinions from a physician licensed in the same or a similar specialty concluding that the treating physician or hospital was negligent.
