Early on in his career Geoff practiced criminal law  where he gained invaluable courtroom experience trying to verdict among other cases, an even dozen murder trials. His practice evolved over a few years into the field of civil litigation where he went on to try to verdict over 250 jury and non jury cases and argue in excess of 100 appeals before the Ontario Court of Appeal and the Supreme Court of Canada in lawsuits involving sophisticated commercial disputes; professional liability claims; product liability claims; major commercial insurance coverage applications; directors and officers liability cases and significant tort litigation matters arising out of  defamation, wrongful death, and  personal injury situations.

Geoff’s current practice now largely centers on but is not confined to providing advice to other lawyers, arguing appeals, and engaging in claims against insurers and legal malpractice actions.

Over the years Geoff has been committed to teaching and writing in an effort to improve the quality of advocacy and develop future litigators of excellence.  He is the author of On Trial, Advocacy Skills Law and Practice, a leading text on trial advocacy cited as an authority by numerous Ontario Superior Court of Justice trial judges and the Ontario Court of Appeal. He is also a contributing editor to Ontario Courtroom Procedure and has written articles on issues of concern to the profession.
