Alexandre Brosseau-Wery
For more than 25 years, Alexandre has represented individuals who have suffered serious or catastrophic injuries, whether they result from medical negligence or from accidents and other wrongful conduct.
He has rare depth of experience in assessing, proving, and securing the full compensation to which his clients may be entitled, including compensation for loss of income and the cost of lifelong care, as well as recognition of the profound personal impact that serious injuries can have on individuals and their families.
When a case cannot be resolved amicably for its true value, Alexandre does not hesitate to take the matter to trial, advocating vigorously until his clients obtain the compensation they deserve.
His work has earned him numerous professional distinctions and has enabled him to recover tens of millions of dollars in compensation for his clients over the years.
Clients have entrusted him with matters spanning a wide range of fields, including obstetrics, anesthesiology, surgery, endocrinology, radiology, oncology, orthopedics, neurology, otolaryngology, and interventional radiology. He has also successfully handled cases involving falls, amputations, burns, defective products, boating, skiing, and swimming accidents, poisoning, and injuries sustained in bars and other licensed establishments.
Alexandre takes pride in offering a personalized approach to every mandate, and is committed to ensuring that clients understand and feel comfortable with each stage of the claims process. He frequently works on a contingency fee basis, meaning clients owe no fees unless and until they recover compensation.
He also acts on behalf of insurers in subrogated claims involving complex technical or scientific issues, as well as in insurance-related disputes and a broad range of civil litigation matters.
In addition, Alexandre is involved in large-scale class actions, with a particular interest in constitutional rights and Indigenous law matters.
