Services
Over the last decade, I've represented clients through some of life's toughest challenges. I've handled cases involving complex business disputes, legal and medical malpractice, insurance claim denials and cases of serious personal injury. In many of those cases, the odds were stacked against my clients, but I believe in making the odds.
The best litigation strategy for business is generally litigation avoidance. Business disputes and commercial litigation can be drawn out, costly, and detract from your focus on your business. However, if your company has been sued, or has a claim against another individual or business, then litigation may be necessary.
In a perfect world, rent payments for your commercial lease property would arrive on time at the start of the month and tenant calls would primarily be about extending the term of the lease or renting additional space. But in the real world tenant calls are more likely to be complaints about various maintenance issues, their inability to pay their rent on time, or their desire to terminate the commercial lease contract.
That's the approach Hamilton and Toronto based Michael's Law Firm takes for all of its breach of contract cases and why Michael Lesage is known as a reputable and highly sought after business lawyer concentrating in breach of contract strategies. A contract is a written or oral agreement, between two or more parties, that creates an obligation to do (or not do) a particular thing, that is intended to be enforceable by law.
With offices in both Toronto and Hamilton, the business litigation lawyers at Michael's Law Firm concentrate in Corporate and Business Litigation strategies that are both pugnacious and results oriented. Whether you are caught in the middle of a complex commercial business dispute or want to safeguard your business against potential disputes, you'll want our Hamilton and Toronto business lawyers on your side fighting for your best interests.

I highly recommend Michael Lesage and Michael's Law firm. We retained him after my mother was injured, and he worked diligently to obtain a good result on her claim. He was truly focused on what was best for us, the clients. He took the time to answer our questions and explain the process to us, and to provide us with the information we needed to make informed decisions throughout the process. If you need a great lawyer, call Michael !

Michael is an outstanding lawyer. He was able to grasp a complex situation quickly, providing excellent legal advice, best next steps and drafted a legal document with "real teeth" that was like pouring cold water over a fire. I know he even went above and beyond the hours our retainer provided for, without mentioning it. I would not hesitate to recommend Michael to anyone needing a top notch lawyer!

"Where there's a need there's always a solution" and that's what I found when retaining Michael Lesage, of Michael's Law Firm.
With Michael's help we resolved a matter with another Legal Firm. His years of experience, tact, knowledgeable advice and attention to detail put me on the right path to settle this matter.
The fact that Michael's office is within a short walking distance of the Hamilton Court House and the Centre of Hamilton, plus convenient parking, makes the journey less stressful.
Whether your legal matters are large or small, I would definitely recommend Michael Lesage. He can address

Michael is very efficient and did everything right from the beginning. He proposed a perfect strategy to help our case and acted on it right away, meanwhile providing us with advice and explaining the proper procedure and response time for our particular situation. As a result of his hard work and effort we got better result(s) then we could hope for and the deal was reached prior to the court date.
Could not have done it without him!
Thank you Michael
