Your Medical Malpractice lawyer meets with you and provides a thorough review based on the facts of your case. You need this legal expertise in order to determine whether you have a viable cause of action against the health care provider. You may have suffered a bad outcome following a medical procedure or treatment but it still may not meet the legal test. The law in Ontario is clear. In order to establish negligence, the failure of the health care provider must have fallen below the standard of care expected of a reasonably competent health care provider. That negligence also needs to be established as the probable cause of the bad outcome. Your Medical Malpractice lawyer will undertake this critical review of your case, and provide you with an opinion as to whether your case meets the required legal standard.
Himelfarb Proszanski has access to a network of the best doctors available in Canada. Your Medical Malpractice Lawyer will engage this network and ensure that the best experts are retained in order to provide the required medical-legal expert opinion to build your winning case. This is just part of the HimPro Advantage™.
