His very diversified practice has led him to represent his clients in the context of cases relating to conflicts between shareholders, contractual disputes and injunction requests. He also works in many other areas of law, namely real estate law and construction law, in trust and inheritance law, in franchise law, in employment law, in administrative and regulatory litigation as well as in defamation matters.<\/p>\n<p>A seasoned litigator, he has defended cases before all courts, from the Court of Quebec to the Court of Appeal, and before almost all administrative tribunals in Quebec, from the T.A.Q. to the R\u00e9gie du logement.<\/p>\n<p>In recent years, Me De Louya has developed a keen interest in class action law, having been the first in the world to institute a class action lawsuit against the giant Apple, which is still ongoing. This remedy, which has been copied worldwide by many other claimants, has already generated hundreds of millions of dollars in compensation and penalties imposed by various government bodies for its members internationally. Since then, Ma\u00eetre De Louya and his partner, Ma\u00eetre Tom Markakis, with whom he shared the school benches in Sherbrooke between 1995 and 1999, have instituted other collective actions that are just as interesting and potentially beneficial for members of the target groups.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243;][vc_column_text]<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-394\" src=\"https:\/\/delouyamarkakis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Tom-Markakis.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"172\" height=\"172\" srcset=\"https:\/\/delouyamarkakis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Tom-Markakis.png 172w, https:\/\/delouyamarkakis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Tom-Markakis-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 172px) 100vw, 172px\" \/>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;5\/6&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h2>Me Tom Markakis<\/h2>\n<p>Graduated from the Faculty of Law of the University of Sherbrooke in 1999, Ma\u00eetre Markakis was admitted to the Bar in 2001.
