Mediation

Many clients want to try and resolve their dispute without the involvement of the formal, expensive, and stressful court system. Mediation has proven to be an excellent and cost-effective option that produces durable solutions to challenging legal disputes. When we are retained to conduct a mediation, we strive to facilitate a discussion that helps participants find common ground. Often, the most creative and workable resolutions come from the parties themselves. We work to explore and unearth these possibilities and help the parties avoid the cost and stress of a court hearing.

Our team is equipped to mediate all types of disputes. We have significant experience mediating family, injury, commercial and civil matters.

Personal Injury

Few events are as consequential as suffering a severe injury. When a client’s personal injury case is handled with empathy, expertise, and care, the result can have a meaningful and positive impact on their life. We take pride in having this trust placed in us.

Personal injury cases depend on timely progression of the claim, engaging definitive expert witnesses, and steadfast advocacy. We will put our resources to work for clients who have sustained injury from all manner of situations including motor vehicle accidents, slip and falls, and medical malpractice.

Administrative Law

Impactful decisions are often made by bodies other than the courts, including by regulators, professional bodies and municipal councils. We represent clients involved in such hearings and investigations in a wide range of scenarios including complaints to a professional regulator and review of decisions with potential environmental impact. We are also retained by applicants and respondents for the judicial review of regulatory decisions.

Commercial Litigation

Our firm is retained in all manner of commercial disputes including:

• insurance coverage;
• breach of contract;
• shareholder disputes;
• franchise litigation;
• employment claims; and
• property disputes.

We take the time to understand the nature of the business and the impact of the dispute so that we can craft the appropriate remedy. If the case cannot be resolved through negotiation, we have experience seeking all manner of relief from court to ensure that interruption to the business is mitigated and minimized.

Torts

We have experience prosecuting and defending all manner of tort claims including professional negligence, defamation and government liability. We are well-versed at synthesizing complicated historical fact scenarios to make persuasive arguments on the duty and standard of care.

Children’s Law

We act on matters involving parenting time and decision-making responsibility for children. These cases can involve child protection or parents going through separation and divorce. In resolving such cases, we seek to ensure that the voice of the children is heard and that their best interests are met.
