As an experienced litigation lawyer, trained mediator, and a Registered Collaborative Family Lawyer, Tory believes that family disputes are best solved through the use of cooperative, non-adversarial means when possible, but she is also a strong advocate and has represented clients at mediations, arbitrations, and has appeared before the Alberta Court of Justice and the Court of King’s Bench of Alberta.
Tory works hard to obtain practical, client-focused, and effective results by minimizing unnecessary conflicts, communicating regularly, ensuring clients understand their legal rights, and analyzing options to ensure the best possible solutions are achieved.
Committed to continuing education and professional development, Tory regularly takes courses to enhance her existing skills through various professional associations.
