Health Care

Canada’s health care sector is governed by a complex set of laws and policies. Private businesses and public institutions operating in this sector require a partner that understands the many opportunities that are available, as well as the complex challenges. Hospitals, clinics, long-term care facilities, retirement homes, professional associations and regulatory bodies need to navigate these rules and ensure compliance in their daily operations.

WeirFoulds advises a range of health care providers and organizations on all aspects of their business. We draft commercial agreements – including supply, research, licensing and service agreements – and negotiate financing and procurement arrangements. We assist with labour and employment matters, intellectual property commercialization and privacy law compliance. We also represent medical professionals and health institutions in litigation and alternative dispute resolution proceedings.

We take a multi-disciplinary approach to our health law files, engaging our commercial, intellectual property, labour and employment, litigation and public law experts as necessary to ensure our clients receive excellent advice that is tailored to their needs.
