Tax Litigation: Strategic Advocacy When It Matters Most

Tax litigation is complex, technical, and high-stakes. Success requires more than a deep understanding of tax law—it demands a lawyer who knows how to navigate the court process, build persuasive arguments, and anticipate how judges approach tax disputes.

When a Tax Dispute Goes to Court

If your matter proceeds to litigation, it means your position was not accepted by the CRA or Revenu Quebec. The critical questions then become:

Why was your position rejected?
Is the tax authority’s position reasonable and supported by the law?
What are the true legal and factual issues in dispute?
How will a court likely assess the evidence and the applicable legislation?
Do you have a strong, defensible case—and at what cost?

These questions must be answered clearly and objectively before taking the next step.
