John provides legal advice for debtors, secured and unsecured creditors, trustees and receivers in matters of bankruptcy and insolvency. Through the years he has appeared at all levels of court in Ontario.

In dealing with estate litigation John represents individuals and families in matters of contested Wills, interpretation and enforceability of Wills and Trusts, mental incapacity, duress and undue influence, duties of Executors and Trustees and rights of beneficiaries.
An important aspect of John’s practice is his ability to support other lawyers that, from time to time, may be seeking to make a specialized referral for a client due to a conflict or for a matter outside of their area of practice. John is sensitive to the issues pertaining to the management of another lawyer’s client, respecting existing client relationships.
