Medical malpractice litigation differs from other areas of personal injury law because of a heavy evidential burden placed on the plaintiff to  show a medical professional was negligent, the scientific complexity of the evidence, the high cost of expert witnesses, often from many specialties, to prove liability, causation and damages, and aggressive and skilled defense counsel. It is important to examine a law firm’s actual experience and expertise in medical malpractice actions and their ability to cover the high costs of malpractice actions before retaining counsel. We specialize in complex, challenging medical actions and we have  the resources to retain the best expert witnesses throughout North America  in order to maximize the chances of success.
