Torys

Torys's tax capabilities are centred on advising on M&A and private equity transactions and representing clients in tax litigation. Private equity funds, corporations, pension funds and banks regularly look to the group for support. Toronto-based Jerald Wortsman steers the practice and specializes in domestic and international corporate tax planning, as well as M&A, reorganizations and corporate finance matters. Additional names to note include Gwen Watson, who brings strength to income tax advice; Corrado Cardarelli, who handles corporate, partnership, trust and general business tax work; and Calgary-based Craig Maurice, who has niche expertise in the tax aspects of M&A transactions involving oil and gas, mining and the midstream sector.
