Gabriel Latner*

After getting an LLM and planning on becoming a professor, Gabriel spent his early career in a think tank writing legal briefs and academic articles. Somehow, he ended up representing technology companies and suing fraudsters.
With a practice that combines transactional and strategic advice with courtroom advocacy, Gabriel has a unique perspective on how to resolve (and more importantly prevent) commercial disputes.
Trained in the UK and the US, and admitted in both New York and Ontario, Gabriel regularly consults on cross-border transactions and litigation, and advises Canadian clients looking to expand into international markets.
