Civil and commercial litigation lawyers at Goldwater, Dubé, can help them protect their legal rights and interests.

CIVIL AND COMMERCIAL LITIGATION


Civil law governs the relationship between individuals. If civil parties are involved in a dispute, civil litigation lawyers can play an important role in resolving the civil dispute. These disputes can range from contract disputes to family law matters and beyond. More specifically, civil litigation includes failure to respect a contract, neighborhood trouble, personal injury, damages involving third-party liability or caused by actions performed in bad faith or incompetence.

Although these actions are not as serious as criminal proceedings, parties with proper legal representation have an undeniable advantage in their case. Civil lawyers can provide their clients with the representation and legal advice needed to navigate the complexities of civil court proceedings.

Commercial litigation, on the other hand, involves business disputes and other disputes related to commercial matters. For example, these disputes can include contracts, intellectual property, commercial law matters, and other areas of commercial law related to business activities.

Commercial litigation lawyers handle legal disputes between individuals, businesses, and other entities that involve certain commercial interests. They can review and advise on the contracts or other legal documents involved in the dispute. They can also represent their clients in court, negotiate settlements, as well as draft legal documents.


OUR FIRM CAN HELP


Civil and commercial lawyers have to be well-versed in the legal process and applicable laws and regulations. They can advise their clients on the best course of action or represent them in court if necessary.

Their knowledge of civil and commercial laws and regulations and expertise in the legal system can be crucial in finding a satisfactory resolution.

BECOMING OUR CLIENT

All our client engagements start with an initial consultation with one of our lawyers who will assess your case, answer any questions you may have, and guide you through the next steps to take.

Should you decide to move forward, we will request a retainer to cover the cost of preparing your file, issuing your proceedings and going to court if necessary. Depending on the urgency of your situation, your needs and your desires, we are ready to prepare your proceedings the same day as your consultation.

We offer a range of attorneys with different levels of experience, different strengths and different hourly rates. We handle your file as a team, so that resources are allocated sensibly and your budgetary constraints are respected to the extent possible.

If your budget can only sustain the services of one of our more junior lawyers, your case will be treated with the same rigour and precision for which our firm is known.

If you have any follow-up questions, you are invited to contact us or book a consultation. We are just a click, a tap or an email away.
