Directors and Officers Liability

Stieber Berlach has assisted directors and officers facing a variety of litigation and legal issues, including those of large national corporations, smaller companies, not-for-profits, and corporation and condominium boards.

Directors and officers are often busy, sophisticated individuals who seek timely and efficient management of, and resolution to, litigation.

Stieber Berlach has assisted directors and officers facing a variety of litigation and legal issues, including those of large national corporations, smaller companies, not-for-profits, and corporation and condominium boards.

Sometimes, these individuals face litigation across Canada and the United States, requiring us to work cooperatively with their legal teams in other jurisdictions. We regularly represent directors and officers in claims for statutory liability, including oppression claims and claims arising from tortious conduct including negligence and civil fraud.

We also provide monitoring advice to primary and excess insurers regarding the defence of complex actions or class actions involving director and officers, and provide opinions regarding coverage available under directors’ and officers’ policies of insurance.
