Ronald J. McCloskey is the principal behind McCloskey Law, specializing in civil litigation at the trial and appellate levels in corporate and commercial law, shareholder and partnership disputes, employment, professional negligence, property disputes, administrative law and libel matters. Much of the firm’s work is referred by other law firms.

The firm has acted for numerous publicly traded and private corporations, individuals, partnerships and associations, representing clients in trials and in hearings before administrative and disciplinary tribunals, employment and labour panels.

The firm offers superior litigation representation based on first-rate legal research, careful analysis and the judgment that comes with over 30 years experience litigating complex corporate and commercial cases.  The focus is on understanding the client's legal and business issues, setting and meeting appropriate expectations. Good counsel must reliably predict the legal outcome of a dispute if it is pursued through a trial and appeal.  Only in the context of an accurate forecast of the likely legal result can clients adopt a cost-effective and efficient strategy and the tactics to achieve their goals.  Success is achieved by close personal service, attention to detail, and a strategy responsive to client needs and objectives within a realistic budget.

Through a network of committed professionals in specialized areas such as corporate, competition and securities law, the firm is in a position to provide the necessary bench strength to staff files appropriately and flexibly to meet client needs and to ensure that expertise is brought to bear on complex disputes. 

In December 2010 the firm moved into the offices of Crawley Meredith Brush, http://www.CMBLaw.ca, a firm specializing in corporation litigation with an emphasis on securities law.  This has provided, within the premises, additional depth and expertise where appropriate.
