The hallmark of the Barriston civil litigation practice is to keep our clients informed. We do our utmost to advance our clients' interests as quickly and as economically as possible. Our lawyers and staff will pursue your claim towards the result that is best for you, whether through negotiation, alternative dispute resolution or trial.

The Barriston litigation group focuses on commercial litigation, construction liens and related disputes, wrongful dismissal, creditors' rights and remedies and insurance defence work. We have particular expertise handling litigation that arises from business disputes and commercial transactions.

With legal representation by Barriston you can expect to be treated courteously, promptly and respectfully by our experienced staff. Our lawyers and staff will be responsive to your concerns and will keep you up to date on the progress of your case. We will do our very best to ensure you obtain results which meet or exceed your expectations.

Disputes and litigation divert your attention from your first priority, running your business. Business owners and managers turn to Barriston for counsel in corporate and commercial litigation issues because we have litigation depth, a track record of success and a highly skilled group of lawyers who focus on corporate and commercial business matters. Selecting Barriston to provide advice and support when faced with a business litigation issue means that you have a team of lawyers who will seek alternatives to trial, who bring practical business savvy to the table and who are more than competent to go the distance if required.

Since all matters or disputes are not necessarily suitable for resolution through the court system, the commercial litigation team at Barriston assesses your situation at the outset to determine whether some form of Alternative Dispute Resolution (“ADR”), such as conciliation, mediation or arbitration, is appropriate for your situation. We have the expertise and experience in these areas to resolve your disputes as quickly and as cost-efficiently as possible in the situation.
