The courts decide cases every day. The law changes continually, and new legislation is passed. Hobbs Giroday’s Vancouver business lawyers keep abreast of these changes by reviewing the reported decisions of the courts.
In cases relevant to our practice areas, we will often write associated case summaries or case comments. A summary provides a concise overview of a decision, broken down into key facts and issues. We also endeavour to provide each associated judgment in full as a PDF.
A case comment, however, takes a different approach: it is a critical review of a case. Our seasoned business lawyers will analyze the ruling and the judge’s interpretation of the law, critically evaluating the judge’s decision. While case comments are primarily written for our professional peers, some of our clients may find value in reading them as well.
The following are a selection of noteworthy cases that either clearly demonstrate a specific act or provide new interpretations of the law (precedents).
