Proud to be recognized by my colleagues—for the third year in a row—as a 2026 Best Lawyers “One to Watch” for my appeal practice.

First time at the Quebec Court Appeal ⚖️

So fun to appear opposite to my former SCC clerk colleague.

The credibility and reliability, including children and adults testifying about traumatic events, is the daily fare of judges and is grounded in common knowledge and experience.

No expert evidence needed.
