Class Action Lawsuit Lawyer in Toronto
Few Canadian class action law firms can boast of a history of success in plaintiff class action law like Will Davidson LLP. Our law firm has been on the cutting edge of this form of legal action in Ontario since the Class Proceedings Act was passed in the early 1990s. Over the following decade and a half, our lawyers have represented plaintiffs in some of the country’s most high-profile class proceedings, including cases relating to drugs and product liability, outbreaks of infectious diseases, and environmental contamination.
