The regulation of professions has become much more complex in recent years. With increasing globalization, added government involvement through the Canada Free Trade Agreement and Fair Access legislation, intricate governance, disciplinary and credentialing issues, and rising regulatory costs, you need experienced counsel.
We have that experience. We provide timely intervention, practical advice and strategic thinking. Our range of services includes initial preparation of legislation and by-laws, advice to governing Boards, Councils, and Committees, prosecuting or defending disciplinary complaints, providing independent advice to disciplinary panels, providing investigative assistance, advising on credentialing matters and attending to all relevant court proceedings.
Using education as much as advocacy, we help those entrusted with the regulation of professions to understand and carry out their roles in the most effective manner consistent with the public interest.
