a summer intern at May Jensen Shawa Solomon LLP (now JSS Barristers) in Calgary where I worked on litigation arising from the collapse Enron, a First Nations band leadership dispute, and a helicopter crash;
seconded to the OSC for nine months as an articling student to assist on the trial of one of the largest quasi-criminal prosecutions for insider trading and misleading disclosure in Canadian history;
an associate at Gowlings LLP where, amongst other things, I represented:
I have been privileged to develop my advocacy skills working alongside (and against) some of Canada’s leading litigators on a wide variety of sophisticated litigation, including high-profile capital markets and professional liability litigation; very often proceeding in real-time. Before launching my own practice, I was:
institutional investors in support of a corporate transaction which proceeded despite: (i) Staff’s attempt to have the OSC cease trade it; and (ii) the objections of activist institutional investors’ at the fairness hearing;
creditors of a public company and its receiver in a class action to recover almost a billion dollars from its auditor which, amongst other things, failed to detect a fraud perpetrated by an officer and director; and
a telecommunications company in a series of urgent injunction applications against its fiercest competitor over misleading advertising;
