Accident and Injury Lawyer Ches Crosbie Meets the Press

Breast Cancer Class Action Mediation Date Announced


Posted on May 25, 2009

May 25, 2009

The date for mediation of the class action lawsuit over faulty hormone receptor testing has been set for October 28, 29 and 30 in St. John's.  Nationally known mediator Hon. George W. Adams, Q.C., a former judge of the Ontario Superior Court, has agreed to mediate the dispute.

Lawyers for the members of the Breast Cancer Testing Class Action and for Eastern Health recently met with Mr. Adams in Toronto.  With his advice, it was decided that the original July date intended for the mediation was impractical, given the enormous volume of preparation required.

Mr. Adams has successfully mediated numerous complex disputes including the Maher Arar rendition claim against the government of Canada, the Maple Leaf Gardens sexual abuse claims, and cases involving allegations of systemic hospital malpractice.

A mediator does not decide issues, but rather assists the parties to decide the issues.

More information about Mr. Adams may be found at www.adamsadr.com.
