Civil and Commercial Litigation
EXPERIENCED LITIGATORS IN TORONTO
We provide strategic counsel and advocacy for individuals and businesses in legal disputes. Our lawyers represent clients in a wide range of matters before various levels of courts and administrative tribunals in Ontario. We provide pragmatic, efficient, and effective representation. This sometimes means early settlement and sometimes means seeing unyielding advocacy right through trial.
Whether you operate on a “hand-shake” basis or have negotiated an extensive contract that you wish to enforce, we have experience handling a wide variety of contractual disputes.
Debt recovery is often one of the most uncomfortable parts of operating a business. Our lawyers have extensive experience collecting debts for our clients as well as defending claims made by creditors. We understand the difficulties that come from not being paid for work that you have completed, or the frustration of enforcing a judgment or court order which you have already obtained. Our lawyers will implement cost-effective enforcement solutions to ensure that you get paid the compensation you are owed.
We deal with a broad spectrum of litigation issues that confront the real estate industry. Our lawyers have experience representing:
- Buyers
- Sellers
- Landlords
- Tenants
- Owners
- Contractors
Regulated professionals, including accountants, lawyers, and architects, are required to meet a “standard of care” in the provision of their professional services.
Our lawyers have experience representing clients in injunction proceedings and other urgent matters. We move quickly and strategically in order to properly respond to the shortened timeline of an injunction proceeding.
You can represent your corporation without a lawyer at the Small Claims Court. Corporations require legal representation at the appeal level though.
Our firm has argued appeals before the Court of Appeal of Ontario and the Divisional Court of Ontario. Appealing a lower court decision has strict timelines, so it is important to move quickly after you have received a decision.
We provide assistance to clients seeking or responding to an application for judicial review of an administrative tribunal decision to the Divisional Court of Ontario.
