Konstantin Starostin

Konstantin summered and articled with Miller Thomson LLP and joined the firm as an Associate following his call to the Ontario Bar in 2016. During his time as a student at the firm, Konstantin gained extensive experience assisting on M&A transactions and provided counsel on complex corporate and securities issues. He also volunteered for the organization of United Way Week and was actively involved with the Ryerson Pro Bono Legal Clinic, which assists university students with various legal issues.

Konstantin completed his law degree at the University of Alberta. While there, he was a volunteer at Student Legal Services in both the criminal and civil branches. He assisted low-income individuals with a variety of legal matters, including court attendances, filings, and the preparation of legal documents. He also acted as a student ambassador, providing information to prospective law students and volunteering at events held by the university. Konstantin was a member of the team that represented the University of Alberta at the Laskin Moot—a national competition with a focus on administrative law—and he participated actively in a number of other events, such as the Denton’s Negotiation Competition.

Prior to attending law school, Konstantin obtained his Honours Bachelor of Commerce in finance from McMaster University. He also worked as a profit analyst for a large multinational corporation, where he was responsible for a number of business programs, oversight of Canadian fixed assets, financial reporting, and regulatory financial compliance.
