Medical Malpractice Law Firm in Saskatchewan

Saskatchewan’s economy is based on agriculture, mining and energy production. This vibrant economy is supported by potash, minerals, and oil & gas. Saskatchewan is known as Canada’s “breadbasket” because it produces almost 30% of Canada’s grain and almost 60% of Canada’s wheat crop. This makes agriculture an important industry in Saskatchewan.

Canada has some of the highest-rated medical services globally, but Saskatchewanians are not exempt from experiencing medical malpractice and negligence in the healthcare sector.

If you or a loved one in Saskatchewan has been injured due to medical malpractice, you might be entitled to financial compensation. Sommers Roth & Elmaleh can help.

Medical Malpractice in Saskatchewan

‘Medical malpractice’ cases are civil claims against doctors, nurses, hospital staff and others in the medical field for their actions leading to medical negligence. This negligence can result from errors made when a patient undergoes diagnosis, treatment, aftercare or general health management.

If you have had any experience with a healthcare professional or provider who failed to give you the adequate care and attention necessary, resulting in injury or death, you have been a victim of medical malpractice.

Medical malpractice claims against nurses, doctors and others in the medical field are filed by patients or the families of those injured or negatively affected by those who provided them with negligent medical care. These medical malpractice claims will generally involve allegations of negligence, breach of contract or breach of fiduciary duty.

Examples of common medical malpractice claims in Saskatchewan can include:

  • Misdiagnoses or failure to diagnose a condition;
  • Obstetric malpractice, including spina bifida or negligence causing cerebral palsy;
  • Failure to properly test;
  • Misinterpreting or ignoring lab results;
  • Pediatric malpractice involving children or infants;
  • Failure to time and treat a condition properly;
  • Unnecessary surgery, wrong site surgery or surgical errors;
  • Failure to provide the right prescription, administering the wrong medication or dosage;
  • Hospital and nursing errors.

In Canada, there are over 100,000 potential medical malpractice claims each year. This number does not include negligent acts committed by doctors who work in private clinics, including chiropractors, dentists and other types of medical professionals.

Spina Bifida Lawyers in Saskatchewan

Spina Bifida can affect your child for the rest of their life. It can cause loss of bladder or bowel control, as well as cognitive issues. Spina Bifida can be detected through ultrasound very early on in pregnancy, and once detected, it can be addressed to decrease the conditions mentioned. If you suppose that your doctor or other healthcare staff did not take the proper precautions, you might have a medical malpractice litigation on your hands.

Hospital Errors in Saskatchewan

Hospitals are supposed to be spaces where you feel safe, and where doctors and other healthcare providers are obligated to act in your best interest. Yet, each year, thousands of patients are injured or otherwise seriously affected by medical errors or negligence.

Those patients and their family members deserve justice when they have been affected by hospital error, or any other forms of medical negligence.

Cerebral Palsy is a condition that occurs in early childhood, and can be the result of medical malpractice.

    Dear Mr Hilik Y. And Jeremy Syrtash. I would like to express my deepest gratitude to you and Sommers Roth and Elmaleh Professional Corporation staff for all you have done with respect to my wife case. My wife was a victim of Medical Malpractice after giving birth to our daughter. She become legally disabled both physically and mentally. The entire family devastated emotionally as my wife struggle to cope with the new reality. The case of Medical Malpractice is quite often a complex case to prove. However, due to your strong commitment, knowledge and dedication combined with strong professionalism the case was successfully won after a long arduous fight. The victory would not have been possible without your dedication and thorough research in the implementation of the standards of the Sommers Roth and Elmaleh Professional Corporation. Justice prevailed at last which in turn allowed my vulnerable wife to feel more optimistic about her future and that of our family. The positive outcome of this case has changed our lives forever. It would not have been possible without the excellent representation of Sommers Roth and Elmaleh Professional Corporation and its legal counsel. My wife and I will be deeply grateful for the successful outcome of this case for many years to come. Solomon Regassa

    I was in a serious horse accident where the horse was injured and should never have been ridden. The owner of the horse was aware that the horse had chronic arthritis issues and the veterinarians at Guelph had told him the horse could decompensate at any time and could cause serious injury whether being led or ridden and could never be jumped again. The horse had been shown at the grand prix level and the owner had payed quite a bit of money for him. After consulting with several lawyers and having one that did represent me at the discoveries who later quit, Jeremy Syrtash took on the case and followed through with guelph university. That is how we found out that the vets had recommended the above. Without Jeremy's efforts and follow through the case would never have continued on. Because of these efforts the case was successful. Thank you so much Jeremy. You are a dedicated, thorough, excellent lawyer and it's been a pleasure to have you as my lawyer!!

    We want to start by saying how much we highly recommend Sommers, Roth and Elmaleh for anyone who is dealing with a situation involving medical malpractice. Hilik and the entire firm have allowed us the opportunity to give our little girl the life she deserves. There is no taking back what happened, but they truly turned such a tragedy into a victory. They fought long and hard, and put forth so much time and effort into making the individuals accountable and responsible for the mistakes that were made. They always showed true compassion for our family, guided us with ease, and supported us through every step. This was such a life changing experience with the firm, and honestly we will always be forever grateful and thankful.
