Colin’s practice focuses on high-stakes commercial disputes across a variety of industries including mining, banking, retail and manufacturing, real estate, cannabis, and franchising. Colin regularly acts for public and private corporations, as well as their directors and officers, to navigate significant contractual disputes, M&A related litigation, corporate defamation and brand protection, fraud, and shareholder disputes.

Colin takes a pragmatic approach to dispute resolution, using the courts and alternative dispute resolution strategies, including mediation and arbitration, as necessary, to achieve positive results for clients. Colin has litigated successfully at all levels of court in Ontario, as well as the Alberta Court of King’s Bench, Supreme Court of British Columbia, and the Court of Appeal for British Columbia.

Colin is an excellent, results-oriented litigator that separates the wheat from the chaff on complex cases. He knows how to press an advantage to position a case for success.

He is always a pleasure to deal with. What stands out is how he approaches things with very little wasted movement.
