Torys LLP, Disputes (International & Cross-Border)

About

Provided by Torys LLP

With a multijurisdictional team of leading litigators, Torys brings strategic judgment and skilled advocacy to cohesively guide clients through sophisticated class actions across Canada, from pre-certification to trial and before courts of all levels.
Class actions are complex in both scale and scope: from the range of jurisdictions to the number of parties involved, they demand vigilant management and high-calibre advocacy.
Clients benefit from our single-team approach on all class action matters that cross jurisdictions. Our team includes lawyers called to multiple Bars with active practices in Québec and the rest of Canada. This means that the same team serves clients on civil and common law matters across the country, increasing efficiency, consistency and cohesion on litigation strategy.
We are among the very few firms in Canada who has defended multiple class proceedings at trial. Our trial and appellate experience is extensive, with a long track record leading and coordinating the defence and settlement of multijurisdictional class actions.
We understand the challenges clients face throughout the litigation process, and we bring focused counsel and a partnership mindset to help manage the risks and costs of class action proceedings. Our close-knit team is dedicated to achieving the best possible results for our clients, whether at the pre-certification stages, defending actions at trial or representing in appeals.
