THE CANADIAN "LITIGATION" Bar continues to be occupied with
arbitration and other alternatives for dispute resolution, as well as courtroom
litigation. And the Lexpert®-ranked lawyers are keeping up with this development,
advising their clients on the most appropriate options available. It may be that
arbitration is mandated by contract in your particular dispute. However, beyond
this compulsory route, certain clients are choosing one form of dispute resolution
over another.
Also interesting to note is the continued rise of litigation "boutiques" in several
Canadian cities. Particularly for those facing "conflict" situations when it comes to
disputes, it is beneficial to learn of the options that are available to you for excellent
counsel at cost-conscious rates.
In this edition, we present Canada's highest-ranked litigation lawyers in the
practice areas indicated. These rankings are based on peer surveys, which have
a participation rate that exceeds 80 per cent. Lexpert® has three levels of ranking:
Most Frequently, Consistently and Repeatedly Recommended. For more informa-
tion on the Lexpert® rankings, please visit Lexpert.ca or contact us directly. The
Lexpert®-ranked lawyers are recommended by their peers; on this basis, we recom-
mend them to you.
