Miller Thomson’s Calgary office grew from two founding partners in 1987 to nearly fifty lawyers. It is on the 43rd floor of Eighth Avenue Place East, near 8th Avenue and 4th Street SW, and the firm has an Edmonton office as well. Nationally Miller Thomson has about 500 lawyers across five provinces.
Services the Calgary office highlights include capital markets and securities, commercial litigation, construction litigation and corporate tax, and Lexpert lists both the Calgary and Edmonton offices as repeatedly recommended in banking and financial institutions. The firm says it combines national expertise with local knowledge of Alberta’s leading industries. Typically suits mid-sized and larger businesses.
Most Alberta start-ups raise money through private placements rather than a prospectus. How the exemptions work and what to watch.
