Overview

Alex brings over 30 years of litigation experience to his clients and the team of lawyers he leads at Richards Buell Sutton.

Working with top companies from around the world on highly difficult to straight forward matters, Alex provides a vast range of services. As a litigator he has handled complex multi-million dollar matters, many of which have proceeded through both trial and appeal. He routinely advises clients on pre-litigation matters such as risk management, contractual rights and obligations and resolution of disputes. He is acknowledged in the legal community as an effective and practical lawyer and is regularly retained to assume conduct of difficult and challenging files from other lawyers.

Alex’s multiple successes at the highest level of B.C. courts have resulted in several long term clients who depend on him to manage litigation risk, and when necessary, a high degree of competency at trial. His competency comes from having conducted over 300 trials in his career. Alex has conducted trials as Crown Counsel on behalf of the Attorney General of B.C., and as counsel for numerous individuals, partnerships and small to large provincial, national and multinational corporations. He has appeared before all levels of B.C. courts as well as Alberta and Ontario superior courts. He has conducted judge and jury and judge alone trials, appeals, summary trials and “fast track” litigation trials. Alex also has extensive experience with judicial settlement conferences and other forms of alternate dispute resolution including mediation, arbitration and party to party negotiations.

His practice is focused on insurance, construction and corporate commercial litigation.

Alex provides legal services through Alex L. Eged Law Corporation.
