The firm is now seeking a trusts and estate planning lawyer with 3+ years of comparable experience to join its Private Client team.

The right candidate has a commitment to exceeding client expectations, enjoys intellectual challenges and finding creative solutions for clients, as well as the ability to efficiently manage multiple projects simultaneously. Professionalism, excellent written and oral communication skills, judgment and diplomacy will be essential. We are looking for someone with the following qualifications:

Experience structuring and drafting trusts, wills and powers of attorney
Experience with reorganizations undertaken for strategic tax and succession planning purposes
Familiarity with cross-border issues and post-mortem estate and tax planning is an asset
Candidates must be a member of the Québec bar; STEP membership will be considered an asset

In return, you will receive strong mentorship and support and gain exposure to high-end work to develop your skills and expertise in this space. You will be part of the highly collaborative team from day one.
