Are you finding yourself distracted and unable to enjoy time with your family? When dealing with legal problems, it’s common for people to feel overwhelmed. The good news is, you don’t have to feel that way anymore.

If you’ve made it to this website you’ve obviously realized that you have a legal problem and are looking for ways to solve it. Congratulations, you’ve made it to the right place. If you need a defamation lawyer, we are some of the toughest in Ontario and are ready to fight for you.

At Last, A Law Firm With the Expertise you Need at a Price You Can Afford

Do you want to know a secret about why large law firms in Toronto are so outrageously expensive? Well, for starters, they have massive overhead. Their offices are in the financial district which has the highest commercial rents in the entire province. Do you benefit at all from them having those really nice offices? Nope. Not at all. Lawyers argue their cases at court, not at their offices, so it doesn’t matter whether their offices are in overpriced steel and glass towers downtown or in a nice professional building in North York like us.

We are a young legal team, yet we have more courtroom experience than most lawyers who have been practising for decades. At the end of the day, what matters is the experience and skill that your lawyer brings to the table. What you really need is a lawyer who is as comfortable in the courtroom as they are in their own living room. The only way to get that level of comfort is by going to court. A lot. And that is exactly what you can expect from your Toronto defamation lawyer at Powell Litigation.

You’ll be shocked by this. At a recent trial, I was facing off against a lawyer who has literally been practising law since I was born. He did a fine job (although we ended up winning the trial and getting $170,117.84 for our client. You can read the decision here). What was shocking was that this lawyer confided in me that, after decades of practising law, this was his very first trial! Can you imagine that?

To get a lawyer with the courtroom experience you need to win your case, call us today at (437) 222-2234.
