Medical Malpractice & Personal Injury Lawyers | AA Law Office
When a medical outcome is not what you expected, or a serious accident turns your life upside down, the path forward can be overwhelming. You’re dealing with pain, medical bills, and uncertainty. At AA Law Office, we are dedicated advocates for individuals who have been harmed by medical errors or personal injury. Our goal is to help you secure the justice and compensation you deserve, no matter where you are in Alberta.
You don’t have to face this alone. Let us help you understand your rights.
Do You Have a Medical Malpractice Claim?
Medical malpractice occurs when a healthcare professional (like a doctor, surgeon, or nurse) provides care that falls below the accepted standard, causing you harm. These cases are complex and require a thorough understanding of both legal and medical principles.
Our firm focuses on claims involving:
- Misdiagnosis or Delayed Diagnosis: Failure to correctly identify a serious condition like cancer, stroke, or infection in a timely manner.
- Surgical Errors: Mistakes made during an operation, such as performing a procedure on the wrong body part, leaving instruments behind, or anesthesia errors.
- Birth Injuries: Harm caused during labour and delivery that leads to conditions like Cerebral Palsy or Erb’s Palsy.
- Medication & Pharmacy Errors: Being prescribed the wrong medication, an incorrect dosage, or not being warned of dangerous side effects.
- Lack of Informed Consent: When a procedure is performed without a proper explanation of the risks to obtain your full consent.
- Hospital-Related Injuries: Harm caused by issues like hospital-acquired infections, patient falls, or inadequate nursing care.
If you believe your trust in a healthcare provider was broken and it resulted in injury, we can help you explore your options for holding them accountable.
Helping You with Personal Injury Claims
Beyond healthcare matters, we represent individuals who have been injured due to someone else’s carelessness. We handle the legal process and the insurance companies so you can focus on your recovery.
Our personal injury practice is extensive and includes:
- Motor Vehicle Accidents: Representing drivers, passengers, and pedestrians injured in collisions involving cars, trucks, and motorcycles.
- Serious & Catastrophic Injuries: Pursuing claims for life-altering harm, including traumatic brain injuries (TBIs), spinal cord injuries, and severe fractures.
- Accidents on Unsafe Property (Premises Liability): Assisting those injured in slip-and-fall incidents on icy sidewalks, wet floors, or due to other hazards on private or public property.
- Bicycle and Recreational Accidents: Advocating for cyclists and individuals harmed in accidents involving ATVs, snowmobiles, or other recreational activities.
- Wrongful Death: Providing compassionate legal guidance to families who have lost a loved one due to another’s negligence.
- Long-Term Disability Denials: Fighting for your rights when an insurance company unfairly denies or cuts off your disability benefits.
Note on Auto Insurance: Alberta’s auto insurance system is changing. It’s crucial to act now under the current at-fault rules before the planned 2027 shift.
Understanding Your Rights & Critical Deadlines
In Alberta, the law protects your right to safe, dignified care and to be compensated if you are wrongfully injured. However, there are strict deadlines.
- The Limitations Act: In most cases, you have only two years from the date you discovered your injury to file a lawsuit.
- The Burden of Proof: To succeed in your case, we must prove that another party had a duty to keep you safe, they breached that duty, and this breach directly caused your damages.
Waiting too long can mean losing your right to claim compensation forever. If you suspect you have a case, it is vital to speak with a lawyer immediately.

What Compensation Can You Recover?
A successful claim can provide financial security to help you rebuild your life. We pursue compensation to cover:
- Economic Damages: To cover quantifiable losses like lost income (past and future), medical treatment, rehabilitation costs, and out-of-pocket expenses.
- Pain and Suffering (Non-Pecuniary Damages): You may be entitled to compensation for your physical pain, emotional distress, and loss of enjoyment of life.
- Other Costs: Compensation for housekeeping assistance or costs incurred by family members providing care.
