Eric’s practice also includes a wide variety of tort matters, including defending clients in trip and falls, tavern liability, product liability, and assault cases before both the Superior Court of Justice and the Ontario Court of Appeal. Eric also handles subrogation matters, including fires, floods, theft, negligent construction, product and equipment defects cases, wherein he has recovered thousands of dollars for his clients.
When away from the office, Eric enjoys travelling, having backpacked through Europe, the Middle East, and Asia. Closer to home, he enjoys mountain biking, rock climbing, scuba diving, and playing hockey.
