Class actions are a new reality on the Canadian legal landscape, presenting unique challenges to businesses, governments and other organizations operating in an increasingly litigious environment. The successful defence of class proceedings demands the strategic and technical expertise of counsel experienced in this complex and evolving area of the law.

MLT has been one of western Canada’s pioneers in the developing and complex field of class actions. MLT's experience in class actions is built upon our proven knowledge and ability to successfully manage complex, multi-party litigation.

MLT has been involved as counsel in almost every significant class proceeding commenced under Saskatchewan’s Class Actions Act, including products liability cases, other mass torts, securities and other investors' claims, pensions, biotechnology and commercial claims. MLT lawyers also regularly participate in, and have lead and coordinated the defence of, multi-jurisdictional class proceedings.

MLT lawyers are leading educators on the subject of class actions, regularly writing and presenting at various conferences in Saskatchewan, Alberta and Ontario.

MLT’s litigators can not only assist in responding to class proceedings once commenced. Our Class Action Group also regularly provides advice to clients respecting class actions in relation to matters that have not matured into issued claims.
