Civil Litigation

What is civil litigation?

It is often easier to think of what civil litigation is not as opposed to its precise definition. Using this approach, you can think of civil litigation as almost any kind of non-criminal legal dispute. These disputes almost always involve private individuals or entities as opposed to the government. Robert Ruddock Law represents clients in the following areas of law:

  • Construction law
  • Contract and commercial law
  • Defamation
  • Director and officer liability
  • Insurance law
  • Partnership law
  • Shareholder rights
  • Wrongful dismissal and employment law

Focused on Advocacy

I only practise civil litigation and have experience representing clients before the Ontario Superior Court of Justice, the principal court for civil disputes in Ontario. I am devoted to excellence in advocacy.
