Shawn A. Poisson

We are a publicly listed company on the TSE and a sophisticated purchaser of legal services. I have worked with numerous lawyers and law firms in multiple jurisdictions for over three decades. I have had the pleasure of working with Mr. Shawn Poisson for the past 10 years. I could not be more pleased with the legal services he has provided to me and the company I work with. Mr. Poisson has consistently demonstrated the highest level of technical competence, judgement, sophistication, integrity and responsiveness. As a private real estate lender, our work consists of highly structured financings with complex legal and development issues which frequently involve extremely tight timelines. The depth and breadth of his experience and technical expertise has allowed him to invariably meet our expectations and deliver to the highest standard without exception. He has worked extremely well with our clients and their lawyers. He is a solutions oriented deal doer without ever compromising our best interest. He offers sound practical advice based on excellent business and legal judgement. He has shown equal levels of competence in both his lending and insolvency practice. As a lender, it has been invaluable to work with someone who is so well grounded on both sides of the business. I would unhesitatingly recommend Mr. Poisson to others and I am pleased to provide my strongest recommendation.
