About the Birth Injury Lawyers Alliance

Effective Representation of Children & Families Affected by Avoidable Injuries

The Birth Injury Lawyers’ Alliance of Canada (BILA) was formed in 2016 by a group of lawyers from across Canada with considerable experience in birth injury cases to promote the effective representation of children and families affected by avoidable injuries occurring at or around the time of birth. The founding members of BILA practice law in every Province and Territory in Canada, with the exception of Quebec.

BILA lawyers have largely dedicated their professional lives to representing the children and families suffering avoidable birth injury. We recognize that these are complex, heart-wrenching and challenging cases.
