Christine D. Duchaine

Due to chance and circumstances, Christine was one of the few fortunate attorneys to be immersed in Environmental law at the very beginning of her career in 1990. She has stayed on course ever since.

After 20 years in prominent Montreal law firms, namely as a partner, she decided in 2009 to found her own firm, dedicated to her areas of practice, in order to offer her clients more proximity and flexibility while maintaining the same high standards of quality she was accustomed to offering in larger structures. Entering it’s 15th year in existence, her firm now consists of an impressive team of 10 attorneys, all dedicated to environmental, municipal and expropriation law.

Christine’s clients include prominent companies in the fields of waste management, environmental technologies and real estate development. She advises her clients at every stage of their projects. A fierce litigator, she has argued cases before every instance of the Quebec judicial system.

Christine is driven by a need to share her knowledge, with her colleagues and clients but also with anyone who is interested in furthering advances in a field of law which she’s helped shape over the past 30 years. An outstanding public speaker, she is often called upon to give conferences and training sessions on various topics and to a wide range of audiences.
