The Vancouver office of global conglomerate Dentons has been steadily building out its litigation practice through noticeable strategic hires as of late. Peers credit this to the savvy of veteran Vancouver litigator David Wotherspoon, the firm’s local head of litigation. Dentons lured
Morgan Camley to its bench from Miller Thomson in late 2019 and in March 2020 welcomed
Eleni
Kassaris, formerly of the local office of Blake Cassels & Graydon, aboard. Camley attends to a varied practice composed of commercial, regulatory and Aboriginal law work, while
Kassaris is a longtime authority in the labor and employment capacity. “Both of these are great hires,” enthuses a peer. “It gives them each an opportunity to shine in their respective capacities.” For his part, Wotherspoon also enjoys a diverse practice that has historically included a steady commercial litigation diet along with more novel niches such as injunction work, intellectual property, defamation and free speech, and professional liability.
