Toronto, October 14, 2021 – McCarthy Tétrault has launched a new initiative to support clients in the health industry, through an integrated, collaborative approach across the firm’s expertise in key health-related sectors. Our Health Industry Group helps clients address challenges and opportunities in one of the Canadian economy’s most rapidly evolving industries.

Led by Myreille Gilbert and Dana Siddle, the Firm developed the integrated group to help health industry players remain competitive and compliant at an unprecedented time in Canadian healthcare.

“Our clients are facing a unique situation, in which a combination of factors, including a rapidly evolving regulatory environment, technological disruption and pandemic challenges, are driving significant change in Canada’s healthcare system,” said Dana Siddle, Co-leader of the Health Industry Group.

“Recognising our clients’ complex needs, we designed our Health Industry Group to help them navigate these issues and capitalize on the transformational opportunities that are emerging as the industry reimagines its service model to provide better care.”

Drawing on our expertise in key health-related sectors, including healthcare, life sciences, pharmaceuticals, medical devices and health tech, the group offers a full spectrum of legal services that ensures clients receive the most effective counsel for their goals. The group advises on a wide range of issues, including telemedicine and digital health integration, health regulations, medicine, healthcare infrastructure, supply chain, startups, M&A and investments, intellectual property protection, medical devices and professional liability.

The Health Industry Group gives clients a team of McCarthy Tétrault practitioners in all relevant sectors, who provide tailored solutions for their most complex issues.

Our Firm draws on a wealth of experience in the health industry that our clients depend on. We consistently top the Canadian League Table rankings for deal volume in Social Infrastructure, including hospitals, and since 2019 have advised on health-related transactions totalling more than $12 Billion. Our Firm has thousands of ongoing medical negligence, regulatory and other matters.
