DLA Piper (Canada) LLP’s environmental law practice continues to make inroads into the market, following the arrival of department co-heads Joshua Jantzi (Calgary) and senior counsel Wally Braul (Vancouver/Calgary/Toronto) in 2022. Most notably, the group added nine new clients to its roster during 2023/24, including Silver47 Exploration Corp, which it represented in the Supreme Court of Yukon on a judicial challenge to the validity of an environmental ‎assessment report — that work was led by Braul. Other key contacts include Max Collett (Vancouver), who joined from Norton Rose Fulbright in June 2023; Canada managing partner Robert Seidel KC (Edmonton); and Jennifer Cleall KC (Edmonton), who is noted for climate change regulations.
