Lawyers for Medical Radiation and Imaging Technologists

As trusted medical radiation and imaging technology lawyers, we represent medical radiation and imaging technologists in Ontario in regulatory, litigation, clinical and risk issues, including those with the Regulator of Medical Radiation and Imaging Technologists in Ontario (the “CMRITO”), the Human Rights Tribunal and the Information and Privacy Commissioner. We help medical radiation and imaging technologists navigate the legal landscape governing the practice of medical radiation and imaging technology in Ontario, including under the Medical Radiation and Imaging Technology Act, 2017.

If you have a complaint, investigation or disciplinary matter before the CMRITO, it is important to get legal advice from a medical radiation and imaging technologist complaint lawyer or medical radiation and imaging technologist discipline lawyer to evaluate your risk and help you manage your response. This is especially important because many forms of remediation ordered by the CMRITO remain on a medical radiation and imaging technologist’s public register indefinitely. We are medical radiation and imaging technology defence lawyers who assist on all types of CMRITO matters, including clinical issues, billing issues, communication issues, recordkeeping issues and boundary violations/sexual assault allegations.

We work with insurance companies covering Ontario medical radiation and imaging technologists and also represent medical radiation and imaging technologists directly who do not have coverage for regulatory matters. We typically offer our clients the choice of an hourly rate or flat fee for these regulatory matters, especially for medical radiation and imaging technologist complaints. We represent medical radiation and imaging technologists across the province of Ontario, including in Toronto and the GTA, Ottawa, Hamilton, Kitchener, London, Brampton, Barrie, Kingston and Thunder Bay.
