About Us
Our focus is on serving the needs of Indigenous nations across Canada, with expertise in the natural resources, energy, environmental & regulatory, land development (on-and-off-reserve – commercial/residential), and litigation (rights and title, specific claims) sectors.
We offer a full suite of solicitor and litigation services, and act for many nations across Canada. We also act for large and medium scale developers in the real estate space, especially in British Columbia and Alberta.
