DESCRIPTION
Banking litigation issues touch on a myriad of aspects of civil litigation and, at one time or another, almost every civil litigator will have a file that requires bank involvement. Whether as litigants or as interested or third parties, banks have a dominant presence in litigation in Ontario, and banking lawyers are increasingly on the cutting edge of new and innovative issues from e-discovery and the creation of document retention policies to new law relating to class action litigation.
An expert faculty of experienced counsel will guide you through the latest developments in banking law, discuss novel legal issues and identify emerging and innovative trends in banking litigation. Learn what's new in the law relating to guarantees, estate litigation, and class actions, and gain practical strategies and advice on how to implement Norwich and other orders that affect or involve banks.
Whether you are a civil litigator or practicing in-house at a banking institution, this program will ensure that you are fully up to speed on the latest issues, are aware of litigation trends and emerging threats, and understand the potential impact of new technology and recent changes in the U.S. on the Canadian banking litigation landscape.
