About Us

Over the past few years, the partners in the firm have been involved in leading cases in Manitoba on oppression remedies under the Canada Business Corporations Act and The Corporations Act (Manitoba) and in the economic torts, especially the tort of wrongfully inducing a breach of contract.

The firm continues its longstanding representation of property and casualty insurers, and, on occasion, has represented insureds in direct first party claims against their insurers.

Human rights issues, complaints and adjudications for and in front of the Human Rights Commission, as well as involvement in respectful workplace issues, has become a common source of work for one of our partners.

Securities litigation and securities regulation matters together with lawsuits over the misappropriation of funds by financial advisors, registered brokers and the like, have also involved members of the firm.

The firm has significant experience in emergency applications such as all types of applications for interlocutory injunctions (including Mareva and Anton Pillar) and has the capacity to act immediately in such matters.

As the largest litigation boutique in Winnipeg, we regularly receive referrals from other lawyers and law firms, both large and small, and from both inside Manitoba and on a national scale.  The firm offers its litigation services to a wide range of local, regional, national and international clients.

Most recently, the firm was selected by the 2009 Lexpert/American Lawyer Guide to the Leading 500 Lawyers in Canada, as the leading litigation lawyers in Winnipeg.
