Class Actions
Branch MacMaster has been involved in class actions for over 25 years. Unlike firms who specialize on plaintiff or defence work, we have throughout that time acted for both plaintiffs and defendants, and this dual practice has allowed us to acquire a broad understanding of class action strategy and forge good working relationships with the leading class action lawyers across Canada. As class actions have become an increasingly popular tool used in litigation in Canada, we are ready to assist our clients.
Branch MacMaster LLP has the depth of experience to successfully manage complex class actions for its clients. The firm’s extensive class action practice includes representing plaintiffs, insurance companies, governments, health profession regulators and many other clients. The firm has been successful in class actions at all levels of Court including at the Supreme Court of Canada.
Branch MacMaster is aware of the complexities associated with class actions and strive to keep current with the latest developments in the area. The firm shares its breadth of experience with the legal community by regularly participating in educational initiatives. The firm’s class action lawyers teach class actions to law students, speak at legal conferences and attend as guests on legal panels and podcasts.
