We are very pleased to announce that our directors at Pacific Medical Law, Paul McGivern, K.C., Susanne Raab and Lindsay McGivern have been recognized as “Leading Practitioners” in Medical Negligence Law in the 2026 Canadian Legal Lexpert® Directory. Our Pacific Medical Law directors are the only plaintiff medical negligence lawyers in BC who were Lexpert-Ranked in 2026.
As described by Lexpert, medical negligence occurs when healthcare providers fail to use reasonable care or exercise what a normal prudent care provider would do, in the performance of their professional duties, resulting in injuries to a patient. Such injury may be the source of a cause of action against said healthcare providers.
The identification of leading practitioner and firms is based upon a comprehensive annual Survey, which has been ongoing since 1994. Lexpert-Ranked lawyers are acknowledged as leaders in their respective fields, lawyers prominent in their practice areas and professional organizations, and lawyers otherwise enjoying significant recognition from their colleagues.
This designation is a significant acknowledgment of our expertise in medical negligence and medical malpractice law. Congratulations to our directors!
