Cassandra Hyler
5/5
My lawyer at Sutton Law was a complete godsend throughout the entire process of my LTB difficulties. He was able to collaborate with the other teams representation while ensuring my best interests were always top priority. He walked me through the entire process and was always available to answer questions and help me through the problem. He even went to court to represent me that day so I wouldn’t miss work and stayed there until he heard direct from the judges mouth that my name was cleared.

FAQ

We frequently deal with disagreements over breaches of lease/sales agreements, property boundaries, landlord/tenant relations, title defects, construction flaws, zoning/land use, including issues around easements, trespassing, and contractual misunderstandings.

Fee arrangements are clearly explained and quoted based on the complexity of your case, with either hourly or flat rates for specific services. Costs vary depending on the severity of the dispute, documentation requirements, and whether mediation or trial is necessary. A cost estimate is provided at the outset and updated regularly so there are never surprises.

We have decades of collective experience resolving residential/commercial real estate disputes, with a proven track record in everything from contract breaches to multi-party property ownership disagreements that result in outcomes aligning to our clients' ambitions.

Expect weekly or biweekly communication of updates by your preferred method (email, phone or video call), with immediate notification of major developments, so you are apprised of every stage and never left chasing someone for information.

  1. Initial Consultation - review the facts of your specific case and your options
  2. Pre-Litigation Negotiation - attempt to resolve the matter via mediation or settlement discussion
  3. Filing a Complaint - file application materials if required
  4. Discovery Phase - exchange of evidence between parties, examination for discovery (depositions)
  5. Negotiation/Settlement - further efforts to resolve the matter out of court
  6. Trial - proceed to present your case before a judge if settlement fails, with arguments, witness examination, cross-examination and judgment
  7. Post-Trial Actions - appeal or enforcement

Efficiency is achieved through detailed case management, budgeting/costing for some milestones, and technology to streamline certain tasks; early mediation and targeted discovery limit unnecessary costs.

All discussions begin with negotiation between parties, ideally in a collaborative spirit to arrive at an acceptable resolution that protects your rights and interests; if necessary, a neutral mediator may be retained to help facilitate agreement and reduce adversity/costs.

Timelines depend on court backlog and case complexity, but most trials take 6–18 months to complete. Results are influenced by strength of evidence, governing laws/statutes, and judicial interpretation, with every detail meticulously prepared for a favorable hearing.

You will be in contact with a lead lawyer counsel who is responsible for your file, often supported by a team handling research, document review/preparation, and certain administrative tasks, ensuring specialized attention, as appropriate, while also maximizing efficiency.

Yes - we increasingly encourage and resort to mediation and arbitration as a means of resolving disputes cheaper and more quickly than formal court proceedings, allowing both sides to work collaboratively toward a solution with the option of returning to trial if disagreement persists.

Legal concepts may be explained in lay terms, accompanied by a written summary/interpretation of relevant terms and process, as well as visual aids (timelines, chevrons, tables or diagrams), plus invitation for questions at every stage.

Stress is mitigated through a clear timeline of next steps, a realistic sense of expectations (possible outcomes), and proactive communication to eliminate uncertainty; regular check-in intervals and simplified paperwork allow you to follow along without feeling overwhelmed.

All client information is protected by lawyer-client privilege and communicated through encrypted channels, with third party disclosure only by explicit order/agreement.

  • Do not delay action (time limits apply).
  • Do not sign contracts you do not fully understand.
  • Do not ignore a title search.
  • Never communicate with the other party before reviewing it with your lawyer to ensure you aren't inadvertently jeopardizing your case.
  • Willingness to negotiate
  • Availability of clear evidence
  • Complexity of legal issues
  • Well-documented contracts
  • Cooperative parties

Cases that involve these elements are more readily and speedily resolved.
