Miller Thomson’s Vancouver litigation group, with an approximate headcount of 36, is helmed by Sarah Hansen, who attends to environmental and indigenous law. “Sarah is great,” claims a peer, “and Miller Thomson actually has a long history of this practice. One of the best indigenous-focused firms in town [JFK] actually got its start at Miller!” Hansen leads a team that is negotiating with a First Nations tribe to build out a ski resort. Kelsey Sherriff is dedicated to class actions, and Ashley Mitchell represents the firm’s Vancouver labor and employment practice, acting on behalf of management in workplace disputes. Cobi Dayan, who makes a debut as a future star in this edition, attends to a wide range of disputes in the construction area, which often cross borders and are more prone to end up at trial.
