Bar Admission:
2011
Eric practices civil and commercial litigation with a focus on construction law, shareholder and corporate governance disputes, contract disputes, subrogation, tort liability, debt recovery and collections. This has afforded Eric the opportunity to appear for clients before all levels of the courts in Ontario and other provinces across Canada.
Prior to joining McCague Borlack, Eric articled and was an associate working with the Honourable Ed Morgan, prior to his appointment to the Ontario Superior Court of Justice. Eric is a co-chair of the firm's Construction and Infrastructure and Debt Recovery and Collections practice areas.
Keeping the best interests of his clients in mind, Eric prioritizes finding the most practical and efficient resolution to every matter. For this reason, Eric works closely with clients to determine when it is appropriate to fight an issue in Court and when to work with the other side to find a mutually agreeable alternative.
A former Canadian Comedy Award nominee, Eric still writes and produces comedy around Toronto to maintain his sense of humour and stay quick on his feet. He also enjoys exploring Toronto's new and unique restaurants, or just hanging out at home with his wife and three children.
Since 2002 when the (then new) Limitations Act 2002 (the “Act”) came into being, there was a section looming, spoken of in only hushed tones by members of the bar: The Ultimate Limitation Period.
Similar to many different areas of law, in Construction Law there is a mechanism for alternative dispute resolution, namely interim adjudication.
