Branscombe v. The Regina Health Board

In the case of Branscombe v. The Regina Health Board, Merchant Law Group LLP represented the plaintiff, Branscombe, who suffered a stroke while receiving treatment at the Regina General Hospital. The plaintiff alleged that the defendants, the Regina Health Board and the attending physicians, were negligent in their treatment and care of the plaintiff, which resulted in the plaintiff’s stroke and permanent disability.

The plaintiff, Branscombe, alleged that the defendants, the Regina Health Board and the attending physicians, were negligent in their treatment and care of the plaintiff, which resulted in the plaintiff’s stroke and permanent disability.

The trial judge, Malone J., found that the defendants breached their duty of care towards the plaintiff by failing to properly diagnose and treat the plaintiff’s condition in a timely manner. The court found that the defendants’ negligence caused or contributed to the plaintiff’s stroke and subsequent disabilities.

The trial judge heard evidence from medical experts and other witnesses to determine the standard of care that should have been provided to the plaintiff. The court found that the defendants fell below the standard of care by failing to perform a CT scan or MRI on the plaintiff, failing to refer the plaintiff to a neurologist, and failing to properly monitor and assess the plaintiff’s condition.

The court also found that the plaintiff suffered significant and permanent injuries as a result of the defendants’ negligence. The plaintiff’s stroke caused severe and permanent disabilities, including weakness in the left side of the body, difficulty with speech and communication, and cognitive impairment.

Based on these factual findings, the court held the defendants liable for the plaintiff’s injuries and awarded $2,359,152.17 in total damages, including compensation for the plaintiff’s past and future loss of income, medical expenses, and non-pecuniary damages, such as pain and suffering, loss of enjoyment of life, and loss of independence.

Merchant Law was successful in persuading the trial judge that the defendants breached their duty of care towards the plaintiff by failing to properly diagnose and treat the plaintiff’s condition in a timely manner. The court found that the defendants’ negligence caused or contributed to the plaintiff’s stroke and subsequent disabilities.

Merchant Law’s representation of the plaintiff in this case highlights our firm’s commitment to pursuing justice and compensation for victims of medical malpractice. The substantial damages award obtained in this case demonstrates their ability to effectively advocate for their clients in complex and high-value medical malpractice claims.

It is important to note that the outcome of any legal matter depends on the specific circumstances of the case, and past results are not a guarantee of future success.

Importance of the cost of future care in SK medical malpractice cases

When determining the cost of future care, courts will consider factors such as the nature and extent of the plaintiff’s injuries, the expected duration of treatment and care, and the estimated cost of future care. Medical experts may be called upon to provide evidence regarding the plaintiff’s future medical needs and the estimated cost of those needs.

Once the court has determined the plaintiff’s future medical needs, it will calculate the cost of future care. This calculation may involve estimating the costs of medication, medical equipment, home care, rehabilitation, and other medical expenses.

In medical malpractice cases, damages for future care may be awarded as a lump sum or as periodic payments, depending on the circumstances of the case. A lump-sum award provides the plaintiff with a one-time payment for future care costs, while periodic payments provide regular payments over a specified period.

Again, please note that the amounts awarded for future care will depend on the specific circumstances of each case, and it may not always be possible to provide specific information on the amounts awarded.

    Preparation of Expert Evidence for Proving Future Cost of Care and Lost Earnings

    Expert opinions are essential in medical malpractice cases, particularly when it comes to proving the cost of future care and loss of income. The best Saskatchewan medical malpractice lawyers work with a team of experts, including medical professionals, chartered accountants, and actuaries, to ensure that their clients receive fair compensation for their injuries and losses.

    Medical experts play a crucial role in establishing the nature and extent of the plaintiff’s injuries, as well as the expected cost of future care. They will provide detailed opinions on the plaintiff’s medical condition, the required treatments, and the ongoing care needed, as well as the associated costs. This information is essential in calculating the damages that the plaintiff is entitled to, including the cost of future care.

    Chartered accountants and actuaries are also important in medical malpractice cases. They will analyze the plaintiff’s financial situation, including their current and future earning capacity, and provide expert opinions on the financial losses suffered as a result of the injuries. This includes calculating the loss of income, as well as future loss of earning capacity, which can be significant in cases where the plaintiff is unable to work due to their injuries.

    The best Saskatchewan medical malpractice lawyers will work closely with a team of experts to build a strong case for their clients, using medical expert opinions, evidence from chartered accountants and actuaries, and other expert opinions as needed to prove the losses suffered by their clients.

    Why are medical malpractice cases so difficult to win in Saskatchewan?

    Medical malpractice cases are difficult to win in Saskatchewan, as in many other jurisdictions, for a number of reasons:

    1. High burden of proof: In order to succeed in a medical malpractice case, the plaintiff must establish that the healthcare professional’s actions or omissions fell below the standard of care expected of a reasonable practitioner, and that this breach of the standard of care caused the plaintiff’s injuries. This can be difficult to prove, as medical professionals are held to a high standard of care and proving a breach can require extensive evidence and expert testimony.

     

    1. Complex medical issues: Medical malpractice cases often involve complex medical issues and terminology that can be difficult to understand and communicate to a jury. This can make it challenging to present the case in a way that is accessible and persuasive to a jury.

     

    1. Strong defence teams: Healthcare providers and their insurers often have strong defense teams, including lawyers and medical experts, who work to defend against malpractice claims. This can make it challenging for plaintiffs to build a strong case and overcome the defense’s arguments. The College of Physicians and Surgeons do not like to lose any malpractice cases as they may fear it creates a slippery slope resulting in more lawsuits against their practitioners for their negligence, as a result they typically fight all claims vigorously. The other major challenge can be finding doctors to testify, where often Merchant Law will bring experts in from the United States or other provinces. The difficulty to have colleagues say that one of their own made a mistake and was negligent or grossly negligent within Saskatchewan is almost impossible. The costs of the experts can be significant.

     

    1. Time limitations: Medical malpractice claims in Saskatchewan are subject to strict time limitations, which can make it difficult for plaintiffs to pursue their claims. Failure to file a claim within the prescribed time limit can result in the claim being dismissed.

    Medical malpractice cases are complex and challenging to win in Saskatchewan, as in many other jurisdictions. However, with the help of an experienced and knowledgeable medical malpractice lawyer, it is possible to build a strong case and achieve a successful outcome.

     

    Contingency fees mean there is no risk to the injured victim of a large bill for lawyer fees should the case lose

    In Saskatchewan, contingency fees are a common way for personal injury lawyers to bill clients for their services. A contingency fee arrangement means that the lawyer’s fees are contingent, or dependent, on the outcome of the case. If the case is successful and the client receives a settlement or judgment, the lawyer will receive a percentage of that amount as their fee. If the case is not successful, the lawyer will not receive a fee.

    Contingency fees in medical malpractice cases typically range from 25% to 40% of the settlement or judgment amount. The percentage charged will depend on the complexity of the case, the amount of work required, and the level of risk involved.

    When working with a lawyer on a contingency fee basis, clients may not pay upfront fees or out-of-pocket expenses for legal services. The lawyer will cover the costs associated with the case, such as court filing fees, medical expert fees, and other expenses, and will recoup those costs from the settlement or judgment amount. In other cases which are more difficult to win, the lawyers might work on contingency for their own legal fees but may require that the out-of-pocket expenses such as for medical and accounting experts be paid by the client.

    Contingency fees can be a good option for individuals who have been injured due to the negligence of healthcare providers and who may not have the financial resources to pay for legal services upfront. They also incentivize lawyers to work hard on behalf of their clients and to pursue the best possible outcome for their case.

    Merchant Law takes medical malpractice cases on contingency, meaning that clients do not pay any fees upfront and that the firm’s fees are contingent on the outcome of the case. This allows injured individuals to access quality legal representation without incurring significant upfront costs or financial risk.
