Estate Litigation

Legal disputes arising over the estate of a loved one are stressful for everyone involved. When they aren’t strategically managed, they can have the unintended consequence of alienating family members at a time when they most need support.

More so than in other legal dispute, the stakes in estate litigation are high and their outcomes have long-lasting impacts. Often, family members become estranged following a legal action where one side is pitted against the other.

Contract Disputes

Nothing is more disruptive to a business, or a person, than dealing with a contract dispute. Whether it’s a client who hasn’t paid for the products or services you delivered, an unpaid loan, or a party who fails to fulfill their contractual obligations, settling these types of conflicts takes time, energy and resources.

Twenty years ago, I set out to start my own firm here in Ottawa, a small litigation boutique I called “Mullowney’s Law”.  I left the big-law environment because I was convinced the business model of almost every large Ottawa law firm, even the large national law firms, was in decline. 
Technology has had an undeniable democratizing effect on the legal profession, greatly enhancing my firm’s ability to compete. Mullowney’s business model uses technology to gain a competitive advantage in the legal marketplace, enabling us to compete for work previously reserved for larger firms.
