The Davis LLP Litigation Group comprises seasoned trial lawyers who skilfully pursue and protect our clients' interests.
Our highly proficient management of numerous complex cases involving multiple claims and parties has kept us at the forefront of important developments in the law, including class actions, injunctions, confidential information, banking, competition, employment, human rights, labour relations, family, intellectual property and international trade.
The National Litigation Group regularly acts for Fortune 500 corporations, private companies, financial institutions, educational institutions, professional regulatory bodies and their members, and entrepreneurs and individuals all operating in a vast array of industrial and business sectors.
Our innovative counsel focuses on resolving disputes efficiently with clients' business objectives foremost in mind.
We have deep experience as trial, appellate and arbitration counsel with a distinguished record of successful resolutions and case wins. We regularly appear in all levels of court across Canada, including the Federal Court and the Supreme Court of Canada, and before a wide range of administrative boards and tribunals.
Our Approach
Our business-savvy approach to advocacy and representation aims to resolve clients' disputes in a timely and cost-effective manner.
We collaborate with our clients to develop and implement strategies that reflect business risks and promote the best possible outcome. We are highly adept at using non-public alternative dispute resolution techniques to solve client problems through the use of mediation, arbitration, negotiation, investigation and fact-finding, and other confidential alternative dispute resolution techniques. Our proven ability to resolve disputes without recourse to trial allows our clients to avoid litigation and focus on their business instead.
Our litigation practice is complemented by the comprehensive legal expertise held by our lawyers who practice in the firm's dynamic and leading business law groups, including Infrastructure and Construction, Corporate / Commercial, Tax, Intellectual Property, Securities and Corporate Finance, Real Estate, and Energy and Resources.
