Claudia Desjardins Bélisle, Managing Partner of our Montréal office, has been recognized by Lexpert as one of Canada’s Leading Lawyers 40 and Under at its Rising Stars Gala.
Claudia has built a reputation for handling complex, precedent-setting employment matters in Quebec. Most recently, she and members of our Labour and Employment team secured an important Supreme Court of Canada victory in a constitutional case concerning federal and provincial jurisdiction over labour relations. She also brings a Canadian perspective to international forums, including the American Bar Association.
Beyond her legal practice, Claudia is an active leader in the legal and business communities and serves on the Board of Directors of Maison Le Paravent, which supports women who are homeless or at risk of homelessness.
This latest recognition follows her inclusion among Canadian Lawyer’s Top 25 Most Influential Lawyers earlier this year and reflects her many contributions to the profession, her clients and the broader community. Congratulations Claudia!
