Appeal Lawyers in Toronto: Appellate Advocacy

Appellate Representation at All Levels of Court

When a trial court decision is wrong, you need experienced appellate counsel who understands the unique demands of appellate practice. Ken Wise & Associates provides appellate representation before the Ontario Court of Appeal, Divisional Court, and other appellate tribunals, bringing decades of litigation experience to every appeal.

Civil Appeals

We handle appeals from decisions of the Ontario Superior Court of Justice in a wide range of civil matters, including contract disputes, property claims, tort actions, and family law matters. We carefully review trial records to identify reversible errors of law, mixed fact and law, or palpable and overriding errors of fact.

Administrative Law Appeals and Judicial Review

We represent clients seeking judicial review of decisions made by administrative tribunals, boards, and government agencies. Whether challenging a decision of the Landlord and Tenant Board, a professional regulatory body, or a municipal authority, we bring focused legal arguments to protect our clients’ rights.

Divisional Court Proceedings

Many appeals and judicial review applications are heard by the Divisional Court. We have extensive experience navigating the procedural requirements of this court, including leave to appeal applications where required.

Leave to Appeal Applications

Some appeals require permission from the court before they can proceed. We prepare persuasive leave to appeal motions that demonstrate the significance of the legal issues involved and the merits of the proposed appeal.

Fresh Evidence Motions

In appropriate cases, we bring motions to introduce fresh evidence on appeal where new information has come to light that could not have been discovered with reasonable diligence at trial and would likely have affected the result.

Appellate Factums and Oral Advocacy

Effective appellate advocacy requires clear, persuasive written arguments and focused oral submissions. Our firm prepares comprehensive appellate factums that distill complex legal issues into compelling arguments, supported by thorough case law research and statutory analysis.

If you are considering an appeal or need to respond to one, contact Ken Wise & Associates for experienced appellate representation.
