Areas of Practice

Insurance Law
We advise and represent clients in insurance related matters including accident and disability, commercial insurance, general liability insurance, bad faith, errors and omissions, insurance coverage issues, insurance legislation, insurance litigation, professional indemnity, property damage and subrogation matters.

Personal Injury
We commonly act in the defence of various types of personal injury tort claims, most notably in the area of motor vehicle accident litigation. In that regard, we represent insurers at the Financial Services Commission and in subsequent proceedings commenced in the Superior Court of Justice.

Occupier's Liability
Our lawyers are frequently retained to act as counsel in cases where the Occupier's Liability Act has been invoked, in order to determine whether liability may exist. These cases may involve accidents that occur in retail shopping centres, private homes or construction sites.

Product Liability
Our lawyers are routinely retained to represent insurers in the defence of product liability claims. These actions may involve property damage, as well as personal injury matters.

Family Law
Louise Morin focuses on litigation and mediation in divorce and separation proceedings including child and spousal support claims, property division, and custody & access disputes, and in the negotiation of domestic contracts.

Medical Malpractice
We provide opinions to potential plaintiffs in cases of medical malpractice, and will advise those affected as to whether the services provided by a physician may have fallen below the appropriate standard of care.

Government Relations
David Young and Courtney Leyland offer extensive services that include strategic communications, crisis management, policy development and government relations.

Appellate Advocacy
We have substantial experience in arguing appellate cases before provincial appellate courts, as well as in the Supreme Court of Canada. The experience of our lawyers has resulted in successful appellate decisions and innovative changes to our law.
