Litigation

Litigation is often a necessary part of doing business. Our guiding principle is that litigation is a means to accomplish a goal, and never an end in itself. We work with our clients to try to prevent litigation or, if necessary, to position them strategically if litigation becomes inevitable. We appear before provincial and federal courts at the trial and appellate levels, and before virtually all administrative tribunals. Our particular areas of expertise include:

• commercial litigation
• competition matters
• employment matters
• intellectual property, computers and technology
• libel, defamation, privacy and personal information
• real estate
• realization on security and foreclosures
• shareholder disputes

Members of the litigation group are:
