Experience

Our lawyers have practised law in Alberta for more than 100 years combined. We have run trials and chambers applications and are veterans of the court system. This experience has prepared us to be effective advocates; it has also contributed to our commitment to offering non-adversarial options to our clients.

Progressive practice

As the needs of Alberta families change, the law is moving forward to offer a range of options to resolve disputes. We are fully trained in mediation and collaborative law, and we act as third-party mediators and arbitrators to facilitate resolution and adjudicate cases. We remain current with new trends in the law that can help our clients to meet their legal goals efficiently and at a minimum of emotional and financial stress.

Effective planning

Our wills and estates practice offers individuals and small-business owners legal tools to prevent estate disputes and to preserve assets. We undertake comprehensive planning for everyday Albertans and those with unique financial interests, such as agricultural businesses and property interests in the U.S.

Our Dedications

Fundamentally, we are dedicated to finding individualized and personal solutions that are right for you and your family.
