Me Sandra Davar is a lawyer who has an atypical and rather exceptionnal professional background. Torn between two passions, law and medecine, Sandra chose to embrace both disciplines…
Admitted to the Bar in 2001 after having completed her studies in Civil law and in Common Law, Sandra practiced law in Montreal for a few years before she returned to university to tackle an ambitious goal, that is studies in medical school. Sandra obtained her medical diploma (M.D.) in 2008 to then achieve, five years later specialist status (2013).
Since then, even though Sandra devotes most of her time to the practice of medecine (in clinics and hospitals), she still is an active member of the Quebec Bar. As such, Sandra remains a determined advocate for access to Health care and for the rights of patients. Sandra acts as the firm’s in house counsel in Health law matters and medical liability cases. Her double professional background and field experience brings to the law firm a unique and invaluable insight for a better understanding of the complex mecanisms upon which rests health care management in the Province of Quebec.
