LITIGATION
Disagreements arise. Contracts are breached. People behave in ways that damage your interests. When you can’t settle these things yourself, you need a litigator.
Litigation is dispute resolution. A litigator is skilled at resolving disputes using a combination of negotiation, mediation, arbitration, and the courts.
What We Do
We resolve disputes for our clients.
We negotiate with a view to avoiding a fight.
When a negotiated resolution is not possible, we pursue other avenues including commencing a lawsuit, demanding arbitration or exploring alternative dispute resolution options.
We gather evidence, organize it and present it to the court or arbitrator in a way that is effective and persuasive. We help you to tell your story so that the decision maker understands your issue and can make a decision.
We aim to win. Whatever a win looks like for you.


You Should Call Us When:
- A person or company is not abiding by contractual obligations
- Your shareholders or partners are acting in a manner that damages your interests
- You have been served with a Statement of Claim.
- You can reach out to us before things become contentious; together, with you as the expert on the facts and us as the authority on the law, we can craft your desired outcome and develop a strategy to pursue those objectives.
Reported Case:
Most cases resolve confidentially, without a trial or hearing. Others are dealt with in a private trial (arbitration), so the results are not reported. Sometimes, however, matters go to court. Below is a link to one reported case in which we persuaded the court to award our clients what they were asking for.
1455293 Ontario Inc. v. Virani:
We were successful in the Superior Court and at the Ontario Court of Appeal in getting partial summary judgment for our client who had lent money that was not repaid.
