We only have limited information for this firm. Consider the following firms which have provided more information:

Alongside its extensive record in advising multinationals on the Canadian aspects of cross-border deals, Davies Ward Phillips & Vineberg LLP is also a popular choice to advise domestic clients on outbound work. Unlike many of its peers, the firm fields locally qualified lawyers in its New York office, which provides further cross-border firepower in multi-jurisdictional transactions. In Toronto, transactional mining specialist Melanie Shishler and corporate and securities expert Vincent Mercier are highly regarded for their frequent involvement in high-profile international mandates. In New York, Jeffrey Nadler, who is qualified in Israel, New York and Ontario, is a key contact for corporate and capital markets transactions. The firm is led globally by Sarbjit Basra, Philippe Johnson and Peter Glicklich — managing partners of the Toronto, Montreal and New York offices respectively.
