Medical Negligence
Lindsay McGivern is a trial lawyer at Pacific Medical Law acting exclusively for plaintiffs, and an Adjunct Professor of Law at UBC, where she teaches the medical negligence course.
The primary focus of Lindsay’s practice has been representing infants who were injured at birth or within the first month of life. Lindsay also represents individuals who have suffered catastrophic brain injuries and spinal cord injuries.
Prior to joining Pacific Medical Law, Lindsay articled at a civil litigation defence firm before moving to Pacific Medical Law. Working on both sides of civil litigation has allowed her to have a broader perspective and given her a better understanding of the different approaches taken by plaintiff’s and defence counsel.
Lindsay is a member of the Birth Injury Lawyers Alliance (www.BILA.ca) a group of lawyers across Canada who have dedicated their professional lives to representing children and families suffering avoidable birth injuries. She serves on the Executive of the Health Law subsection of the Canadian Bar Association (BC) and is an Adjunct Professor at the Allard School of Law at UBC.
