Mann Lawyers LLP is a broad practice law firm delivering top-quality service to its clients in many fields, including business, commercial and residential real estate and commercial litigation, to name a few.
Michael Hebert and Cheryl Gerhardt McLuckie have extensive experience in environmental law and complex commercial litigation. Hebert’s early work in environmental litigation, starting with the 2000 case of Tridan v. Shell, 2002 Carswell Ont 1, 154 O.A.C. 1, 57 O.R. (3d) 503, created new remedies for parties whose land had been contaminated by others. This case has served as a benchmark for environmental litigation since its delivery and is still referred to on an ongoing basis in legal decisions and texts.
Hebert’s innovative approach to environmental law has been a constant throughout his career. He has been involved in numerous cases over the years that have resulted in leading decisions in the field. An environmental law team will prove to be an ideal complement to the firm’s existing practice areas. Hebert and his team have developed an extensive litigation practice and also provide ongoing advice and counsel to landowners and developers about general matters regarding environmental law and regulation.
