Expropriations
An expropriation concerns the taking of land by an authority permitted to do so by legislation in order to carry out a “public purpose”. The expropriation process is highly regulated, requiring all those involved to comply with strict timelines and rules in order to complete the taking and finalize the compensation and payment of other damages.
We are proud to have represented a variety of landowners and governmental authorities throughout the expropriation process. Our previous experience with respect to expropriations is wide-ranging and includes the 407-ETR, the vivaNext LTR, the Herb Gray Parkway and the Metrolinx Regional Express Rail.
Our approach to expropriation is collaborative and team-oriented. We have an experienced team of professionals who can help you navigate the complexities of the expropriation process from start to finish or at any point in between.
