Shift law IP Law Firm

Shift Law is an entrepreneurial law firm with expertise in intellectual property, dispute resolution, strategic advice and practical solutions. We combine experience at Canada's top trade mark, copyright, litigation and business law firms with an accessible, agile and creative small firm approach.

We make a point of knowing each client’s business and its overall objectives before we get to work, no matter what we're asked to do - whether it's acting as your trade mark lawyer to register a trade mark, drafting a demand letter or a software licensing agreement, representing you in a trade mark or copyright infringement action, conducting an IP audit or due diligence review, clearing a television documentary... or any other legal service we provide. Tailoring our approach to your business and objectives is how we add value.

Our core expertise is intellectual property law and dispute resolution. But we endeavour to help our clients with all of their legal needs, even if that means referring them to another lawyer or law firm we can vouch for with the appropriate rates and areas of expertise to meet their specific objectives.
