A strategic and formidable advocate in complex corporate disputes

Our company faced a high-stakes shareholder dispute that threatened to derail a major acquisition. Doug Mitchell’s deep understanding of corporate litigation, honed over nearly two decades, was immediately apparent. He navigated the intricate cross-border elements between Boston and Canada with precision, a skill undoubtedly refined through his McGill University legal training and extensive work with U.S. clients. Doug’s strategic approach was both meticulous and aggressive when needed, directly leading to a highly favorable settlement that preserved the deal. His calm, commanding presence and clear communication instilled confidence throughout the process. It’s no surprise to see his ‘Bet-the-Company’ recognition; he is exactly the counsel you want when everything is on the line.
