About

Commercial litigation represents the heart of our practice at Lenczner Slaght. Our lawyers have a wealth of experience in pursuing complex, high-profile cases across the spectrum of business-related legal matters. Our well-honed courtroom skills have won the respect of judges and fellow counsel at all levels of the courts – including the Toronto Commercial List, where many of Canada's most complex commercial cases are heard.

As a firm devoted exclusively to litigation, we have a deep reserve of experience practicing on the Commercial List that enables us to power commerciallist.com. In an effort to provide value to members of the Commercial List community, we have created this website that includes existing practice resources, precedents, answers to frequently asked questions, best practices, interviews and blogs, important decisions, and relevant news and events. We hope this website will be a great resource for the Court, counsel, our clients and the public.

This is Lenczner Slaght's one-stop shop for all things Commercial List.
