About

Provided by Fasken

Fasken has an international reputation for informed, proactive advice to the communications sector. In fact, clients, directories and peers have considered us leaders in the industry for decades. We work closely with telecommunications, broadcasting and media organizations who want to pursue complex innovations while still operating efficiently. We work with clients to implement strategies regarding terrestrial and satellite services and related spectrum management matters. Our experienced team includes a former Federal Communications Minister and Minister of International Trade as well as lawyers who have worked in large communications organizations.

The industry evolves to meet the demands of consumers. Regulation, licensing and government policies, as well as spectrum auctions and acquisitions and advancements to wireless technologies, are a requirement to stay competitive.

We help navigate complex regulatory requirements and foreign ownership restrictions. We can establish new businesses and initiatives, structure specialized commercial agreements and organize infrastructure projects at the national and international level.

We represent clients in proceedings before specialized tribunals, such as the Canadian Radio-television Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) and the Copyright Board, as well as in court and at arbitration. We also coordinate with regulators regarding radio frequency standards, broadcast licences, frequency coordination and terminal certification.
