THE WORK WE DO .


A full-service practice anchored in corporate and commercial law with specialized depth in the areas that matter to the clients we serve.

PRACTICE AREAS

Counsel for those who
build, hold, and endure.


Our practice is organized around clients, not categories. We work alongside investors, founders, family interests, and institutions whose affairs require counsel that is precise, durable, and discreet.

Every matter is handled with the directness of a trusted adviser, not the distance of a large firm.

  • We advise investors, builders, and operating entities on the legal architecture of significant transactions, from initial structure through to closing and beyond.

    Our clients retain us not because they need a lawyer to sign off, but because they want counsel who can read a room, anticipate a problem, and give a direct answer under pressure.

    • Corporate share transactions and asset acquisitions across Alberta and nationally

    • Commercial real estate, including development agreements and joint ventures

    • Corporate governance, shareholder arrangements, and succession planning

    • Contract drafting, review, and enforcement across complex commercial relationships

    • Construction including procurement structures, construction contracts (CCDC and custom), lien exposure, and dispute avoidance

    • Outside general counsel services to private companies and family enterprises

  • Corporate. Commercial. Transactional.

    From initial structuring to complex transactions, we provide the kind of precise, commercially grounded counsel that protects your interests and moves your business forward. Whether you are incorporating, acquiring, financing, or exiting — we are ready.

    • Incorporation, structure, and governance

    • Share and asset purchase agreements

    • Commercial and construction contracts and negotiations

    • Financing and secured transactions

    • Shareholder and partnership arrangements

    • Business dispositions and exits

  • Where rights meet commercial realities.

    A. Law Office brings substantive experience to the intersection of Indigenous enterprise, economic development, and commercial law. We work with both Indigenous and non-Indigenous clients to structure agreements, navigate regulatory requirements, and build transactions that generate durable value for all parties involved.

    • Commercial agreements with Indigenous enterprises

    • Business structuring for Indigenous organizations

    • Joint ventures and economic participation agreements

    • Regulatory and compliance advisory

    • Governance for Indigenous enterprises and entities

  • When matters cannot be resolved at the table.

    Not every dispute resolves through negotiation. When litigation becomes necessary, A. Law Office provides clear-eyed, strategic representation focused on achieving the result that matters, efficiently and without unnecessary prolongation.

    • Commercial and contract disputes

    • Corporate and shareholder disputes

    • Construction and major project disputes including delay claims, deficiency disputes, liens, and contractor/subcontractor conflicts

    • Regulatory and administrative matters

    • Alternative dispute resolution and arbitration

  • Most businesses of substance require ongoing legal counsel. Few can justify a full-time in-house hire. Standing Counsel bridges that gap: a retained relationship with a legal advisor who knows your business, your priorities, and your risk tolerance.

    Custom arrangements are available., specifically tailored for clients whose needs require focused support for a defined period or project.
