Cambridge LLP represents businesses, entrepreneurs, and international counsel in complex disputes that cross borders. We act at every stage of the dispute lifecycle — from early strategic advice through to judgment or award, and ultimately, recovery against assets in Canada.
Cross-border disputes present unique challenges: multiple jurisdictions, competing legal systems, and defendants whose assets may be difficult to locate or secure. Our team is experienced in navigating these complexities, coordinating with foreign counsel, and advancing proceedings in Canada in a way that is efficient, strategic, and results-focused.
A defining strength of our practice is the recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments and arbitral awards in Canada. We are frequently retained by international law firms and businesses seeking to convert legal victories abroad into meaningful recovery against Canadian assets. In addition, we are directly connected to an extensive network of partners in the U.S. and around the world with whom we work to enforce arbitral awards in countries outside of Canada.
We regularly obtain and execute on a full range of remedies in support of cross-border claims, including Mareva injunctions, asset tracing and preservation orders, and enforcement proceedings in Ontario and across Canada. Whether acting on inbound mandates from abroad or assisting Canadian clients with disputes that extend beyond domestic borders, we focus on practical outcomes — securing assets, enforcing rights, and delivering results.
