Mining (International & Cross-Border) - Canada
What the Team is Known For
Fasken offers a market-leading mining group and a full service across key contentious and transactional areas, with highly regarded specialists teams stationed across Canada. The bulk of its resources operate out of Toronto, where it provides strong deal teams, particularly in banking and finance. A major part of its cross-border expertise involves the USA, where it regularly works with clients investing into Canada, in partnership with US firms. Another key component of the law firm`s international work springs from its stellar mining and natural resources practice, which extends to offices in London and Johannesburg to provide a global platform to help service Canadian and global clients on their operations around the world.
Fasken excels in cross-border mining matters and is a recognised leader in both transactional and regulatory areas of the industry. In addition to the firm's boots on the ground in South Africa and the UK, its mining practitioners are well versed in Latin American work, and frequently advise on mining projects across the region. The law firm is well known by peers and clients for its capabilities in navigating major mining clients through international mandates, with an ability to project-manage M&A and financing deals - for domestic and foreign clients - across continents. The law firm's global mining practice is provided through its close relationships with firms in local jurisdictions, which collaborate with its Canadian offices and strategic global network.
