We provide legal advice to clients and, if needed, we represent them before the courts.
Since 2018, we also lead class action lawsuits. We have extensive experience in human rights, civil liberties and social justice issues. Our exceptional network of quality collaborators help us achieve our goals and serve our clients’ interests.

All should be equal before the law. This statement is even more important when addressing civil rights and fundamental liberties.
At the heart of a free and democratic society is the liberty of its subjects. Liberty lost is never regained and can never be fully compensated for; therefore, where the potential exists for the loss of freedom for even a day, we, as a free and democratic society, must place the highest emphasis on ensuring that our system of justice minimizes the chances of an unwarranted denial of liberty.
R. v. Hall, [2002] 3 SCR 30 per IACOBUCCI J. (dissenting)
Our team is made of a small number of trusted lawyers and staff. We choose this approach and take an individual perspective on our client-attorney relationships. We have limited resources and availabilities, therefore often declining new mandates.
We do have an exceptional network of collaborators and often successfully refer files to trusted colleagues and friends.
