We've helped clients navigate some seriously tricky legal waters. Here's a look at what we've accomplished together - names changed to protect confidentiality, of course.
Manufacturing Technology Sector
Guided a Canadian manufacturing firm through acquisition of a US-based tech company. The deal looked straightforward until we dug into regulatory requirements across both jurisdictions.
Aerospace Component Manufacturer
Client was facing potential penalties after an internal audit revealed some gaps in their export documentation. We worked with CBSA to resolve the issues without major fines.
Professional Services Firm
Three partners wanted to go different directions after 15 years together. We structured an amicable split that protected everyone's interests and kept the client relationships intact.
Software Development Company
Former employee allegedly took proprietary code to a competitor. We built a rock-solid case demonstrating our client's ownership and secured an injunction plus damages.
Automotive Parts Supplier
Negotiated a complex supply chain agreement spanning Canada, US, and Mexico under CUSMA provisions. The devil was definitely in the details on this one.
Infrastructure Development Firm
Client was expanding into markets with higher corruption risks. We designed and implemented a comprehensive compliance program that met both Canadian and international standards.
Food & Beverage Industry
Structured a management buyout with PE backing for a family-owned business. Balanced the family's legacy concerns with the investors' financial objectives - not always easy!
Renewable Energy Sector
Two competitors decided to team up for a specific project. We created a JV structure that protected both parties' core businesses while allowing true collaboration.
Consumer Goods Brand
Developed a global trademark protection strategy as client expanded into Asia-Pacific markets. Prevented several potential conflicts before they became expensive problems.
Every case is different, but our approach stays consistent - thorough analysis, strategic thinking, and relentless advocacy for our clients.
