Lawyer for Regulatory Compliance and Defence

Our regulatory compliance and defence clients include businesses and institutions, private individuals, and regulated professionals. We have extensive knowledge of relevant legislation in this area including Liquor Licence Act, Consumer Protection Act, Competition Act, Electricity Act, Motor Vehicle Dealers Act, and Ontario College of Trades and Apprenticeship Act.

We recognize that almost every sphere of the economy is regulated by federal or provincial legislation, and it is of critical importance that businesses and individuals take a proactive approach to regulatory compliance. When this proactive approach fails, businesses and professionals must ensure that they are adequately protected and defended against charges threatening to disrupt business and cause financial hardship.

Our civil litigation lawyers advise clients affected by federal, provincial, or municipal government decisions and recognize that when a corporation or individual faces a regulatory offence, they face serious consequences that may have long-lasting repercussions. With that in mind, we offer our clients a highly personalized and attentive legal defence while taking into account the high stakes that are involved.

Consequences for Purchasers Who Fail to Close on New Build Condos Under OREA APS In Ontario, the purchase of a pre construction condo is governed by a detailed agreement of purchase and sale that is typically drafted using the Ontario Real Estate Association (OREA) Agreement of Purchase and Sale (APS). This agreement forms a legally binding contract once the buyer signed it, committing the buyer to complete the purchase on the agreed closing date. Unlike resale real estate transactions, a pre construction purchase involves unique risks tied to timelines, financing, and shifting real estate market conditions.

MAREVA INJUNCTION ONTARIO In Ontario's civil procedure, a Mareva injunction, also referred to as a freezing order or Mareva order, serves as a crucial mechanism for plaintiffs and applicants seeking to prevent the dissipation of a defendant's assets prior to judgement.
