Our client, a Canadian business consultant, was sued in a United States court for $37 million by a major Canadian non-profit organization arising from a failed venture. We retained and instructed American counsel to dispute the US court’s jurisdiction over our client. We managed documentary production involving thousands of documents and client relations. We also represented our client on two US depositions held in Canada. The US court was persuaded to refuse jurisdiction against our client and the refusal was upheld by the State Court of Appeals, terminating the proceedings against our client.
