When medical care goes wrong, the aftermath can feel overwhelming. You might be dealing with physical pain, mounting bills, and the nagging question: How did this happen?At PMP Law, we've walked alongside countless Ontarians who've faced this reality due to medical malpractice. Our mission? To ease your burden and fight for the accountability and compensation you deserve. Here's what you need to know—and how we can help.
The Emotional Toll of Medical Negligence
Discovering that a trusted healthcare provider's negligence caused you or a loved one harm isn't just a legal issue—it's deeply personal. You might feel betrayed, angry, or unsure of where to turn. Whether it's a misdiagnosis that delayed critical treatment or a surgical error that changed your life, the emotional weight can be as heavy as the physical one. At PMP Law, we see you as more than a case; we're here to listen and support you through this challenging time.
What Makes a Medical Malpractice Case?
In Ontario, a medical malpractice claim arises when a healthcare professional's actions (or inaction) fall below the accepted standard of care, directly causing injury or loss. Examples include:
- Failing to diagnose a treatable condition like cancer or infection.
- Botching a procedure, leading to complications or disability.
- Prescribing incorrect medications with harmful side effects.
Proving these cases requires evidence—medical records, expert opinions, and a clear link between the negligence and your suffering. That's where PMP Law steps in, handling the heavy lifting so you can focus on healing.
Timing Matters: Don't Wait Too Long
Ontario law gives you two years from when you discovered the malpractice to file a claim, under the Limitations Act, 2002. But building a strong case takes time—gathering records, consulting experts, and piecing together what went wrong. Starting early ensures your rights are protected. Unsure if you're still within the limit? We offer free consultations to review your situation, no strings attached.
What You Could Gain—and What's at Stake
A successful claim can provide compensation for:
- Medical expenses and ongoing care.
- Lost income or future earning potential.
- Pain, suffering, and diminished quality of life.
Beyond finances, pursuing a claim can also bring closure and hold negligent parties accountable, potentially preventing others from suffering the same fate. At PMP Law, we've seen how this process can restore a sense of control to our clients' lives.
