Ottawa Medical Malpractice Lawyers Directory - Personal Injury Litigation
LEGAL HELPLINE: ☎ 855 804 7125Ottawa is the capital of Canada and has over 1 million residents. All large cities inevitably have well equipped and well-staffed hospitals however even the most highly qualified healthcare professional will on occasion make an error. Unfortunately, errors within the medical field can have devastating consequences for the patient. An Ottawa medical malpractice lawyer may be employed by an injured patient to claim for pain and suffering and any consequential losses. Taking legal action for negligence against a consultant, specialist, doctor, dentist, nurse or technician is never an easy matter bearing in mind that they must refer any claims that are intimated to the Canadian Medical Protective Association (CMPA) which has assets of over $3 billion and is therefore well equipped to wage war on any potential claimant. The CMPA is a nonprofit organization and membership fees depend on the type of work carried out and the local of the physician. The fees charged do not relate to the individual claims experience of the doctor concerned but are set according to the claims experience of the group on a mutual basis. Malpractice lawsuits account for less than 1% of the Canadian healthcare budget. An Ottawa medical malpractice lawyer must prove negligence, causation and loss to succeed in a compensation claim which can be difficult and in practical terms it means that less than 10 lawsuits go to trial annually filed on behalf of residents of Ottawa however this figure does not include all of those matters that are settled by the CMPA prior to trial.
