litigation and dispute resolution

These days solving complex business law disputes is more about brains than brawn. It’s more about agility and strategy than bullish belligerence. At McMillan we practice the art of cool-headed persuasion, hotly pursued. Alert, agile and tenacious, aggressive when needed. Always fiercely focused on your goal.

We deal with any type of dispute your business may have, in any form it may take. Our teams are regularly chosen to tackle high profile, complex legal issues that require sophisticated, intelligent advice. From provincial regulators to federal tribunals to international panels. From trial courts to Courts of Appeal to the Supreme Court of Canada. From litigation to negotiation to mediation and arbitration. There is no business dispute we can’t handle.
