Commercial Disputes
Many commercial disputes stem from a simple contract, the interpretation of which is, on the surface, “black & white”. Unfortunately, litigating a matter through to a final decision from the Court can be very time-consuming and costly. Why pay big-firm prices? Litman Law provides you with an ideal alternative.
The lawyers at Litman Law have the necessary experience to assist you in every phase of the litigation process. We approach every matter in a practical and business-oriented approach. Litman Law is determined to understand your business, the industry you work in and the particular challenges you face. We endeavor to minimize adversarial posturing, whenever possible, to encourage an early settlement in the interest of representing our clients in an efficient and cost effective manner.
Our litigation practice benefits from close ties to other Toronto and Ontario law firms whose lawyers we have teamed up with in order to achieve favourable results for our clients.
Construction Lien Actions
The Construction Lien Act is a unique piece of legislation intended to protect the rights of those who provide services in the construction industry and are not duly compensated.
Litman Law will assist you whether you are a contractor who was not paid or a landlord whose property has become the illegitimate target of a Lien. The lawyers at Litman Law have experience with the practical aspects of Construction Lien litigation, including appearing before Masters and Judges to obtain orders discharging/vacating Liens and dismissing Construction Lien actions.
We will provide you with an industry-based approach to your problem, taking into account the relevant legislation and caselaw. More importantly, we will navigate through any necessary litigation steps efficiently so your costs are kept to a minimum.
