Medical Malpractice Lawyer

Your medical malpractice lawyer - protecting your rights in the event of the unthinkable. If you were the victim of medical malpractice, a medical negligence lawyer is here to help you get the compensation you need to support you throughout your recovery.

As patients, we are required to place almost absolute faith in our doctors, chiropractors, anesthesiologists, dentists, nurses, and other healthcare providers. Unfortunately, when this trust is broken through negligence, omission or misdeed, the consequences can be far-reaching. Canada has a world-class medical system, but mistakes are still common. Misdiagnosis, failed surgeries, and even deliberate misconduct are not unheard of. If you or someone you know has been affected by medical malpractice, get in touch with our experienced team of medical malpractice lawyers.

Experienced Medical Negligence Lawyer

Medical malpractice claims and lawsuits are often difficult to prove and are generally contested by the Canadian Medical Protective Association (CMPA). For this reason, they require strong legal and medical know-how. At Neinstein Personal Injury Lawyers, we have helped many patients who have suffered harm at the hands of healthcare professionals and institutions. Our team not only helps clients access the compensation they deserve for their suffering, but also helps them access the best medical treatment.

How Do I Know if I need a Medical Malpractice Lawyer or was the Victim of Medical Negligence?

Medical malpractice refers to mental and/or physical suffering caused by the negligence, omission or error of a healthcare professional or medical institution. This can include errors committed by dentists, doctors, nurses, hospitals, and pharmaceutical companies. Malpractice can take many forms, including misdiagnosis or late diagnosis, medication errors, failure to properly explain the risks of a treatment, deficiencies in post-operative care, and even defects or failure of medical devices (such as stents or surgical mesh).

Before starting legal action, talk to an experienced medical malpractice lawyer. They will help you determine who should be named in the suit: is it your doctor? The hospital? The pharmaceutical company or medical device manufacturer? Should they all be named?

Leading Medical Malpractice Lawyers

Medical malpractice lawsuits will in most cases be contested vigorously by the CMPA, a not-for-profit organization that provides defense services and liability protection for Canadian doctors. The CMPA's defence practices are why Toronto medical malpractice lawyers insist on establishing strong cases. Neinstein Personal Injury Lawyers partners with experienced medical professionals to prepare for malpractice advocacy. We understand the complexities of establishing a chain of causation, and the consequences of failing to establish that chain.

Neinstein Personal Injury Lawyers' clients benefit from the expertise of our renowned Medical Malpractice Group. Our team of experienced medical malpractice lawyers help clients understand the challenges associated with malpractice claims and their options for pursuing compensation. Connect with a medical negligence lawyer who will be there for you every step of the way and never treat you like a file or number.

What Is Medical Malpractice?

Medical malpractice is a complex field of law which covers the injuries caused by the negligence of medical professionals, pharmaceutical companies, and healthcare institutions. In simple terms, here are a few examples of the kinds of errors that could cause you to approach a Toronto medical malpractice lawyer.

 

Misdiagnosis and Delayed Diagnosis

When an illness is misidentified, or symptoms of an illness are overlooked leading to a delay in identification. This can cause delayed treatment that leads to negative patient outcomes.

Surgical Malpractice

Surgeries all have an element of risk which a patient must bear, but serious errors caused by negligence or bad judgement are not among them. An operation on the wrong body part and surgical items left inside the body are particularly blatant examples of this.

We're Here For Your Financial + Legal Recovery

 

When people are injured, most often they are unable to work and during these times, cash flow can become an enormous burden on the victim and their families. We recognize that our clients are suffering and are under enormous financial stress.

That is why we use the contingency fee arrangement. Under this arrangement, the client is not required to pay any fees or expenses unless the case is successful. If the client does not recover any monies from the lawsuit, there will be no legal fees.
