Mediation is a facilitated negotiation in which a mutually acceptable third party will assist in the settlement of a dispute. It is a non-adversarial process aimed at achieving consensus between the parties without adjudicating on the merits. Rather, the mediator attempts to bring disputing parties to a point where they are able to settle their differences amicably, without resorting to litigation or arbitration. Given our deep roots in Mississauga, we are well-positioned to help local clients resolve disputes efficiently and with minimal stress. Mediation can be especially effective where the chosen mediator has a particular knowledge, experience and expertise in the subject area of the dispute.

We have considerable experience in assisting clients with all aspects of trademarks and brand management. We regularly help businesses in Mississauga and beyond safeguard their identities by providing strategic advice on trademark filing, registration, and enforcement.

We understand that a brand goes beyond a trademark – it’s your business’ reputation and therefore requires the utmost management and care. Our trademark lawyers are also qualified as trademark agents, meaning we have specific expertise in representing clients in the Canadian Intellectual Property Office (CIPO), coupled with the knowledge and ability to advise on legal issues. With this background, we can advise our clients on the steps that they can take to protect their brands before issues arise to reduce legal and other costs.

Franchising is a method of distributing products and services that allow business and brand owners to expand using the capital of others, namely, the franchisees. With franchising, an established business utilizing a brand name or trademark will license a franchisee to leverage its intellectual property, business model, branding, and advertising to sell the brand’s products or services. Franchise operations will need to follow a franchise agreement and agree to pay a royalty fee to be part of the franchise network.
