Litigation

Disputes are inevitable. They arise in every aspect of our personal and business lives, from disagreements with neighbours to disputes with business partners to the denial of a claim by an insurance company. Disputes may be complex, multi party disputes or may be as simple as the collection of unpaid accounts.

Most of the time we resolve our disputes, but there are times when legal advice is necessary to determine the strength of a position or to understand the extent of exposure when threatened with a lawsuit.

Our litigation experience and knowledge of the court system will assist you in negotiating a resolution or in commencing or defending a lawsuit depending on the circumstances and according to your instructions. We understand that there are times when you will wish to seek a resolution, and times where the monetary value of the dispute is not your primary consideration.

If you are not sure what your next step could or should be, we will provide you with the advice you need to make decisions. We can assist with the following:

  • business & commercial disputes
  • employment disputes (wrongful dismissal)
  • intellectual property disputes
  • personal injury claims
  • will & estate disputes
  • class action lawsuits
  • collection of unpaid accounts
  • enforcement of judgments – garnishments & writ filing
