Ontario Canadian-German Cross-Border Litigation Lawyers
At the Toronto law firm of Polten & Associates, we have extensive experience and expertise in enforcing judgments from the German-speaking areas of Europe in Ontario courts. We also have significant experience with issues of jurisdiction, choice of law, conflicts of law and forum conveniens.

Our capacity to handle such cases is enhanced by our legal and administrative assistant's superior German language skills along with his more than ten years of experience in working within the legal system in Germany.
