For a second consecutive year, the Chambers Canada guide has recognized two Cain Lamarre lawyers, as well as the firm's Real Estate Law Practice Group. These distinctions highlight the expertise the firm has developed in areas where its professionals have been assisting organizations with complex, large-scale matters for many years.
The 2027 edition recognizes:
Stéphane Lalande – Real Estate Law, Québec (Band 4)
Stéphane Lamarre – Transportation Law, Canada (Band 3)
Real Estate Law Practice Group – Québec (Band 3)
Recognized expertise in real estate law
The recognition awarded to both Stéphane Lalande and our Real Estate Law Practice Group reflects the strength of an expertise built on a multidisciplinary approach and a deep understanding of the realities of the Québec market.
Our real estate professionals work closely with colleagues in business law, municipal law, construction law, environmental law, financing, mergers and acquisitions, tax law, and litigation. This collaborative approach enables us to support clients at every stage of their real estate projects, from acquisition and financing to development and operations, through to dispute resolution.
Our presence across 15 offices throughout Québec is also a significant advantage. It allows our teams to combine their knowledge of regional markets and local realities with the strength of a network of nearly 300 professionals located across the province.
Transportation law expertise recognized across Canada
With more than 35 years of experience in this field, Stéphane Lamarre advises and represents trucking companies and various industry stakeholders on matters involving regulatory compliance, interprovincial and international transportation, civil and contractual liability, as well as complex litigation.
His expertise also extends to knowledge sharing. Over the course of his career, he has served as a speaker, author, and lecturer. He is notably the co-author of L’encadrement légal du transport routier par véhicules lourds au Québec (The Legal Framework Governing Heavy Vehicle Road Transportation in Québec), the only legal treatise dedicated to road transportation in Québec.
This individual recognition is part of Cain Lamarre’s long-established transportation law practice. For several decades, the firm has been assisting businesses and organizations in the transportation sector throughout Québec, Canada, and the United States, drawing on a range of legal disciplines to address their legal, regulatory, and operational challenges.
