McLeish co-chairs motor vehicle litigation forum

Toronto critical injury lawyer John McLeish is set to co-chair the Oatley McLeish Guide to Motor Vehicle Litigation 2015 event later this month in Toronto.

The annual program, hosted by the Law Society of Upper Canada, provides lawyers who practise motor vehicle litigation with the latest developments in personal injury law from some of Ontario’s leading practitioners. Topics will include the new SABS dispute resolution regime, the law of waivers and releases, and summary judgment in personal injury cases after Hryniak v. Mauldin.

McLeish, partner with McLeish Orlando LLP, will also moderate a number of panels at the event, including “Civility in Litigation: Standards of Professionalism, What is your view?” and “The Ethics of Disclosure of Information, Experts’ Opinions, Affidavits of Documents, Emails and Drafts.”

The program will be held on March 26 from 8:30 a.m. to 4: 30 p.m. and March 27 from 8:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. at the Donald Lamont Learning Centre, 130 Queen St. W., in Toronto, or via live webcast.
