We challenge the status quo and deliver consistent results as well as uncompromising quality and value to our clients. Our global presence is renowned as a firm with over 21,000 individuals in more than 200 offices serving clients across 80+ countries.
Dentons Canada is committed to its people and communities. We are consistently recognized as an employer of choice having received numerous awards including being selected as one of Canada’s Top 100 Employers (2025); Canada’s Top Employers for Young People (2024), and Canada’s Best Diversity Employers (2024).
This role is an opportunity for you to join the world’s largest law firm, a firm that offers opportunities to build your career while growing your skills and deepening your expertise.
The OpportunityAre you an experienced lawyer who looks for creative and pragmatic solutions to issues and enjoys collaborating within a dynamic team? If so, Dentons Canada is offering a unique, groundbreaking and exciting opportunity for experienced fee earners with a minimum of 2-3 years of experience.
We are looking to recruit Conflicts Lawyers to assess legal and commercial conflicts of interest issues under the applicable professional rules, across our different offices. You do not need any prior conflicts experience; rather you will be joining a pioneering team consisting of other ex-fee earners and professionals—the first of its kind in Canada. Training in the applicable Canadian professional rules will be provided. A prior fee earning background at preferably an international business law firm or large national law firm is strongly preferred.
The RoleAt Dentons, we take risk and compliance seriously. That is why we have set up a new approach to assessing conflicts which aligns with the approach of other global firms in international jurisdictions such as London and New York. We carry out detailed, commercially pragmatic assessments that protect our clients’ interests and our Firm.
In this role, you will be working on assessing whether we can take on a range of mandates and how. These are often complex and involve high-profile clients and deals. Your work will also span the breadth of the globe as our Conflict Lawyers often work with our numerous overseas offices in Europe, the US and Australia as well as many others.
Primary Responsibilities- Develop search strategies, conduct, review and analyze legal conflicts of interest and confidential information issues arising from a range of complex potential and existing matters, new clients and lateral partner hires, across various practice areas including financing, M&A, insolvency, and litigation. Propose and manage commercially appropriate resolutions.
- Advise on the Firm's strategic sector and client interests in commercial conflicts.
- Facilitate discussions between partners and stakeholders firmwide to navigate and resolve conflicts.
- Draft and review conflicts-related language for client engagement letters and terms, providing related advice on potential conflicts issues.
- Assess conflicts issues and prepare commercially appropriate responses to high value RFPs.
- Provide ad hoc advice to partners and fee earners as needed.
- Inform lawyers and professionals about the firm's conflicts rights and obligations under existing client engagement agreements.
- Perform other duties as assigned to fully meet the requirements of the position.
- Minimum of a 2-3 years’ experience as a lawyer, preferably with an international business law firm, or a large national law firm (in Canada).
- Strong high-level knowledge of a variety of practice areas to understand where possible conflicts issues may arise within them.
- Ability to work under pressure and manage competing deadlines effectively.
- Exhibits diligence and attention to detail, with a systematic and organized approach to tasks.
- Maintains confidentiality and exercises discretion with sensitive information.
- Demonstrates strong collaborative skills, able to work effectively with colleagues at all levels within the Firm.
- Applies sound judgment, making informed decisions and staying calm in challenging situations.
- Takes a proactive approach, with a client-centered mindset and the ability to apply problem-solving and analytical skills to resolve issues.
- Communicates clearly and effectively, managing difficult situations with poise and within tight deadlines.
- Supports the Firm's values, contributing to an environment of equal opportunities and diversity.
- Represents the Firm professionally, showing a commitment to ethical conduct and privacy.
We thank all applicants for their interest, however, only those selected for an interview will be contacted.
