The Litigation Process
Civil Litigation involves a preliminary assessment of the merits of the claim or defence at the outset. The process involves preparing a claim or defence setting out the argument for our client in the best possible manner. Relevant and material documents are then exchanged. Questioning is then done of parties or their legal representatives. Then, the case is set down for trial. At all stages, recommendations are made that facilitate settlement, which is always the preferred option, but only when the terms are reasonable. Administrative tribunals follow a similar pattern. Settlement Offers and mediations are also often used when cost-effective results can be achieved.
Choosing PMR for Litigation
Our litigation team approaches cases from the point of view that the best and most valuable advice is a comprehensive, critical analysis of the cost and benefits of a claim at the outset, with a realistic assessment of the likely outcome, and the steps needed to get there.
We have experience in defending claims advanced by groups of litigants in major cases and in class actions. The firm has many reported cases.
Some recent successful cases won by the firm before the courts include oil patch fraud, the rights of second mortgage holders when acquiring property by foreclosure, and the scope of the 2-year limitation period.
