McCarthy Tétrault possesses an increasingly prominent construction offering that leverages the wider firm’s strong skill sets in dispute resolution, and projects and infrastructure. Routinely involved in mandates across Canada and beyond, it acts for owners, developers, lenders, contractors and architects on projects using all types of project delivery structures, including progressive models. Toronto-based Scott Chalmers leads the national construction practice and specializes in transactional construction work. Key contacts on the contentious side include Bryan West (Calgary), Julie Parla (Toronto) and Aidan Cameron (Vancouver), who lead the project and disputes groups in their respective provinces. The group was recently boosted in Toronto by the hire of Bruce Karn, who joined as partner from Ellis Don; he contributes extensive experience in construction disputes and transactional work.
