About RAR Litigation

RAR Litigation is a litigation firm with about twenty lawyers, split between offices in Richmond Hill and Oakville, Ontario. Rocco Ruso founded the firm in 2010, after practicing construction litigation at one of Canada's largest firms. That background set the direction: RAR built a specific focus on litigation for the construction and development industries, acting for owners, developers, contractors, subtrades, suppliers, and design consultants on lien claims, delay and deficiency disputes, surety issues, and breach of contract and trust claims.

The practice has grown beyond construction into commercial litigation, real estate litigation, mortgage enforcement for lenders, corporate governance disputes, professional negligence claims, appeals, injunctive relief, and alternative dispute resolution. Several of the firm's lawyers came to RAR after practicing at large Toronto firms, and the roster includes at least one lawyer who works in French as well as English. In the 2027 edition of Best Lawyers: Ones to Watch in Canada, RAR Litigation lawyers were named to the list.
