Jeremy Opolsky

Jeremy’s legal acumen is backed by a wealth of experience before courts across the country, with his cases often making new law. He is known for compelling oral and persuasive written advocacy that is rooted in carefully crafted litigation strategy. After clerking for Justice Rosalie Silberman Abella at the Supreme Court of Canada, Jeremy has appeared numerous times at that court – for both parties and intervenors – all of which give Jeremy unique insight and perspective to disputes at all levels of court. Jeremy has a broad corporate and commercial litigation practice, representing clients in shareholder disputes (for both majority and minority shareholders), often in complex, bet-the-farm oppression cases, in arbitration, in court, and on appeal; confidential information disputes; fraud and breaches of fiduciary duty; and complex trust disputes. In his appellate and public law practice, Jeremy works closely with clients, and often as co-counsel with trial counsel, on a wide array of matters. His counsel has been sought at every stage of litigation, from advising on leave applications to taking appeals up to the Supreme Court.
