Pierre Bélanger’s professional background showcases a wide range of skills, more particularly in the field of professional liability, in which he is considered to possess a key know-how.
He practiced his profession alongside major distinguished law firms until 1999, when he first launched a boutique firm in Montreal and then in Quebec in 2000. Jean-François Longtin joined his ranks in 2001 to form “Bélanger Longtin”.
His widespread experience in the fields of litigation, insurance and health law has led him to represent a large number of professionals in all lines of business as well as numerous institutions and hospitals, before disciplinary boards and civil Courts, including the Supreme Court of Canada.
In recent years, he was asked to defend the interests of various professional bodies, including the Quebec Bar and the Ordre des dentistes. He was also involved in important construction and engineer liability matters.
His extensive court and mediation experience enables him to keenly focus on the plight of his clients, defining their expectations, targeting practical and suitable solutions conducive to a favourable outcome, while taking into consideration the reputation of the professionals at risk and the cost factor.
