Paul Cahill
Paul’s advanced advocacy skills both inside and outside of the courtroom have led to him being recognized by the Law Society of Ontario as a Certified Specialist in Civil Litigation.
Paul has proven himself a fearless advocate by a number of successful trial outcomes over the years, including a recent $11.5 million judgment for medical malpractice causing cerebral palsy against a negligent doctor as well as a recent judgment against a negligent emergency room physician who caused the death of a 34 year-old mother of 4 young children.
Paul's hard work and dedication to his clients has led to him being recognized by his peers and numerous publications including Best Lawyers in Canada for Medical Negligence and Personal Injury Litigation since 2021.
Paul is a past director of the Ontario Trial Lawyers Association (2020-2023) and past Chair of the Medical Malpractice Section (2019-2020).
For select matters, Paul will act as trial counsel to other lawyers for medical malpractice and serious personal injury claims.
Paul was called to the bar in Ontario in 2005.
