We are Dispute Resolution and Litigation Lawyers

We work with our entertainment and creative industry clients to resolve their disputes, through negotiation, mediation, arbitration or court action and trial.

The Canadian entertainment industry is not immune from disputes. Helping to resolve those disputes as efficiently and cost-effectively as possible is a critical service we provide to our clients. Our team of experienced litigation lawyers work with you to understand the strengths and weaknesses of your position, to negotiate or mediate a fair solution and, if necessary, to represent you at arbitration or in court in a court action and trial.

At Edwards Creative Law, we have extensive experience resolving disputes through negotiation, mediation, arbitration and the court system. Explore our dispute resolution and litigation services or contact us today to discuss resolving your dispute.

Our Dispute Resolution and Litigation Law Services

We represent you in every type and stage of Dispute Resolution and Litigation.

Relationships break, products and services are deficient, promises are not kept, contracts are not performed, debts are not paid, representations are not true. Disputes are an inevitable part of being active in the entertainment industry. We can help you understand the strengths and weaknesses of your position and the options available to you to resolve those disputes as quickly, efficiently and cost-effectively as possible. We take the heat – giving you distance and perspective.

Our Entertainment Lawyers are available to assist with all of your entertainment dispute resolution and litigation needs for analysing the factual and legal strengths and weaknesses of your position, to drafting the demand letter and negotiating a resolution, to representing you in mediation, arbitration or a court action and trial.

Demand Letter

It demands that a person do or stop doing a specific thing and sets out what you are prepared to do if they do not.

Negotiation

From the first communication to the final judgement of an arbitrator or judge, negotiation of a fair and reasonable settlement is a constant and critical objective of any dispute resolution process.

Mediation

An arbitrator or judge will decide a dispute, but a mediator can help the parties to see the strengths and weaknesses of their positions, to resolve the dispute themselves – sometimes even save the relationship.

Arbitration

Arbitration by an arbitrator or arbitration panel is the only available dispute resolution process in many entertainment industry agreements. It can be quick and cheap – and it’s always confidential.

Court action

The ultimate option to resolve a dispute – filing a claim or application with the court and asking a judge to decide the dispute, which typically follows a trial.
