yes i won So I won the lawsuit against SLIMBAND IN TORONTO how do i collect

[jenottawa 6]

I don't think any elective surgeries are being booked right now as so many have been cancelled that they have a BIG backlog when they start up again... Also, no court cases are being held right now either. I have contacted a couple of lawyers and they never got back to me. Also, I was told not to go after Slimband but the maker OF the band as one went bankrupt and the other is still operating.

Hi everyone!

I will have my band removed in Women's College Hospital in Toronto on June 25th.

We should really work harder on trying to file a lawsuit against the clinic and/or the slimband company!

I am going to contact directly Ontario College Lawyer Member to find out exact lawyer who is specialized for healthcare that able take file a lawsuit against slimband and maker of the lapband.
