We invest ourselves in our clients' challenges and take up their cause with relentless focus, as we strive to find common ground quickly and effectively to achieve the best possible resolution.

  • Argue cases in court
  • Advise clients on the tax dispute resolution process and represent clients with tax authorities
  • Assist clients in responding to federal and provincial audits
  • Prepare notices of objection and written representations to the Canada Revenue Agency and Revenue Quebec
  • Prepare legal opinions with respect to the tax consequences of transactions, and performing post-transaction audits for tax efficacy and litigation risk
What you bring to the role
  • Bachelor of Law
  • Master of Taxation (or equivalent) would be a valuable asset for this position
  • Active membership and good standing with the Quebec Law Society
  • Five to seven years of tax dispute and litigation experience gained at a leading law firm

  • Strong written and verbal communication
  • Resourcefulness and high level of autonomy
