Profile

Emily Larose

Emily is a partner in the firm’s Advocacy Group, providing advice and representation to stakeholders in various regulated industries, with specific expertise working with Health Canada-regulated clients. She has experience advising on all manner of regulatory issues, risk management and policy matters and applies her regulatory expertise to product liability and class action litigation.

Among other things, Emily has worked with clients:

• Providing advice on Health Canada regulatory issues, including pharmaceutical, medical device, food and natural health product marketing compliance, labelling, licensing questions, and mandatory problem reporting;
• Outlining the potential implications of legislative change in areas such as health information privacy and the Ontario Drug Benefit Program;
• Responding to access to information requests;
• Advising on product liability issues, such as risk management measures, managing recalls, and defending individual and class action litigation.

Emily developed an interest in health law issues through her experiences at the Consent and Capacity Board and with the College of Nurses of Ontario. This interest has been further developed through a recent in-house secondment with the legal department of a multinational pharmaceutical company. 

Emily has published articles on the reuse of single-use medical devices, incorporation by health professionals, spoliation and cross-border discovery. She has presented on various topics including the implications of the Supreme Courts decision in the Chaoulli case, spoliation and codes of conduct applicable to the life sciences industry.
