Litigation lawyers act in civil disputes: contract and commercial claims, shareholder and partnership disputes, debt recovery and other cases that may end up in court or settled before trial.
Alberta's Limitations Act sets a basic two-year limitation period for most claims, with exceptions. Speak to a lawyer early so that a deadline does not run out.
Civil disputes in Alberta are heard in the Provincial Court and the Court of King's Bench of Alberta.
Litigation is most often billed hourly. Ask for a budget by stage, and what happens to fees if the case settles early. Ask about disbursements (third-party costs), taxes, and what happens if your matter changes in scope. Many firms offer a first consultation, but confirm whether it is free.
