Legal Services

Civil Litigation
We provide litigation services to individuals and businesses in a wide range of legal disputes. Our goal is to approach every file on an individual, case-by-case basis, seeking to distill the core issues and legal options available to you, and to execute a litigation strategy tailored to your specific needs and circumstances.

Although we never hesitate to attend court, given the stress and costs typically associated with litigation, we believe it is best to resolve matters outside of court, where possible. As such, if alternative dispute mechanisms such as mediation or arbitration are appropriate, we will engage those processes to leverage the best possible outcome.

If, on the other hand, court intervention is necessary, we provide our clients with skilled, experienced and strategic legal representation throughout all stages of the lawsuit. We are highly motivated, results-oriented litigators, and we always endeavor to maximize the value of our services.

Construction Litigation
Construction projects of all sizes often run into various issues. Among other things, substantial changes are made to the project scope, critical deadlines are missed, engineering and architectural drawings are not followed, faulty materials are used and deficient work is performed, and contractors and subcontractors are not paid.

Given that construction cases typically involve multiple parties, extensive records and documentary productions, and complex technical issues which require expert evaluation, it is prudent that they are managed strategically and efficiently. We have the skill, experience and knowledge required to successfully resolve your construction dispute in a cost-effective and expedient manner.

Real Estate Litigation
Buying a home is one of the biggest transactions you will make in your life. In the unfortunate event that you encounter issues and a dispute arises, it is important to retain litigation counsel who have the knowledge and experience necessary to properly evaluate and advance your claim.

We are skilled and experienced litigators who know how to identify the salient issues, determine the most advantageous litigation strategy, preserve the evidence retain the right experts, and effectively advocate on your behalf in court. Our knowledge of the legal issues which typically arise has allowed us to successfully resolve numerous real estate disputes in favor of our clients.

Employment Litigation
As an employee, you dedicate the majority of your waking life to the financial betterment of your employer. Given this, at the very least, you deserve to be treated with dignity and respect, and you deserve to be fairly compensated for your work. Unfortunately, this is often not the case.

If you have been laid off or terminated, denied employment benefits or denied reasonable accommodations for an illness or a disability, or if you have otherwise been treated unfairly by your employer in any manner, we can review your situation and ensure that your legal rights are upheld.

We have favorably settled numerous lawsuits for clients who were wrongfully terminated by their employers and who were not properly compensated. Regardless of the size of the corporation or the law firm it hires, we will relentlessly advocate on your behalf until a fair settlement is reached, or alternatively, until a judgment is entered at trial.

We assist in cases involving termination of employment, wrongful dismissal, payment in lieu of notice, workplace harassment, discrimination, human rights, and workers compensation and disability claims. Outside of litigation services, we also assist in preparing and reviewing employment contracts as well as confidentiality, non-competition and non-solicitation agreements.

Commercial Litigation
We have significant experience acting in complex commercial litigation cases, and we have successfully represented our clients in disputes involving contractual interpretation, officers and directors liability, share valuation, shareholder oppression, asset tracing and civil fraud.
Insurance Litigation
We regularly represent insured parties who are seeking coverage from their insurers, who dispute the coverage already provided, or who have been denied coverage altogether.

We have successfully dealt with insurance coverage issues for our clients both inside and outside of the courthouse, and we are familiar with various types of insurance policies, including life insurance policies, property insurance policies, motor vehicle policies, commercial general liability policies and professional liability policies.

Defamation & Slander
Defamation occurs when a false statement is made about an individual or organization which tends to lower that individual or organization’s reputation in the estimation of the general public and which results in quantifiable losses and damages.

Regardless of the circumstances of the case, complex issues related to qualified and absolute privilege, malice and the quantification of losses arise in almost every defamation action. We have the knowledge, skill and technical savvy required to provide comprehensive and effective legal representation in lawsuits involving defamation and slander.

Estate Planning
We can help you prepare a final will and testament or make changes to your existing will. We can also review the terms of your existing will to ensure that it is legally valid and that it properly conveys your final wishes. In addition, we are capable of preparing powers of attorney and personal directives.
