Civil Litigation
Litigation is the process of taking legal action through a proceeding or law suit. In addition to Personal Injury and Insurance litigation, we represent both plaintiffs and defendants in other matters including cases involving:
- Breach of Contract
- Dismissal, Harassment and other Employment Issues (we represent both employers and employees)
- Real Property disputes involving rights of way, title to property and matters arising subsequent to a purchase of property
- Estate Litigation
- Family Law Litigation
Breach Of Contract
Dismissal, Harassment And Other Employment Issues
The Employer/Employee relationship is one guided by contracts and legislation. Communication between the two parties sometimes breaks down, particularly if an employee feels he or she is being treated unfairly. We offer the following services:
- Employment Contract drafting and review
- Negotiation and Review of Contracts of Employment, Severance Packages and Terminations
- Creation of Employment Policies for Employers
Litigation of all the above as required.
Real Property Disputes
We represent clients who are faced with various issues relating to property, property purchases and sale transactions. Where one party fails to close as scheduled, we can assist with a breach of contract case.
We also deal with boundary and right-of-way disputes, alleged encroachments, shared well and drive-way issues and nuisance cases where one person’s land has been adversely effected by something on or traveling from another’s property.
We are often called on after a property purchase has closed to deal with issues such as allegations of misrepresentation by builders or sellers of new construction. Cases can involve seeking damages and repairs for undisclosed issues and compensation for lost value.
We represent builders, contractors and trades people with collection matters and liens pursuant to the Builders’ Lien Act by filing liens and commencing Court Actions for payment when necessary.
