Above all else Greg is a trial lawyer. Clients regularly retain Greg for their most important concerns, including commercial disputes, property disputes, shareholder remedy actions, construction, and professional negligence matters. Often a trial is not the most cost effective or timely way to achieve the best outcome for a client. Where the cost or duration of a dispute can be reduced without compromising the best possible outcome for a client, Greg is a proponent of mediation and arbitration. Regardless of the method of dispute resolution Greg is an innovative and tenacious champion of his client’s rights. Greg has successfully argued for his clients’ interests at every level of court in Ontario, including at the Supreme Court of Canada. Greg is particularly effective in appellate matters where skills and experience specific to the appeal process are required. Further, he has prevailed before a diverse range of boards and tribunals on matters including occupational health and safety, Ontario Land Tribunal matters, as well as human rights claims and professional disciplinary hearings. Greg’s clients value his pragmatic approach to civil disputes and regulatory matters, constantly seeking the best possible outcome in the shortest possible time and at the least possible cost.Greg was recently selected by his peers for inclusion in the The Best Lawyers in Canada (r), 2015 for Corporate and Commercial Litigation.
