Ms Marie-Josée Couture > Dentons > Montreal, Canada > Lawyer Profile

The team at Dentons is well-versed in aviation issues, namely complex and structured financing transactions and compliance mandates. International aviation financiers, commercial and business aircraft lessors, aircraft chartered companies, airports and private operators routinely feature on its broad client roster. Vancouver-based practice co-head Robert Quon specializes in assisting aviation and aerospace clients with corporate and commercial transactions. Alongside him, Kathryn McCulloch co-leads from Toronto and has niche expertise in the regulatory structure for drones; her robust traditional aviation practice includes representing commercial air operators in litigation. In Montreal, partner Marie-Josée Couture assists with financing transactions.

Dentons’ global network is reflected in a client list that encompasses a range of non-Canadian banks and alternative lenders. The group also routinely advises Canadian borrowers and domestic financial institutions, with a focus on the energy, infrastructure, TMT and financial services industries. Ryan Middleton and Robert de Guzman co-head the transactions-focused team from Toronto and Edmonton respectively. Other key names in Toronto include Dennis Wiebe, Michael Henriques and Heidi Clark. Joel Cabelli and Marie-Josée Couture are noted in Montreal.
