A partner since 1999, François sits on the organization’s Board of Directors and also serves as Chair of the Governance Committee.
His practice focuses on administrative law, serving both public- and private-sector clients. Over the years, he has developed two areas of particular expertise.
François is widely recognized for his in-depth understanding of issues related to projects carried out on agricultural land in Québec. He is frequently called upon to provide opinions on the feasibility of a wide range of projects and to advise and represent individuals, businesses and municipal bodies before the Commission de protection du territoire agricole du Québec (CPTAQ), the Administrative Tribunal of Quebec (TAQ) and the courts.
His expertise covers a broad range of projects, notably in agriculture and agri-food, agrotourism, the energy sector, as well as commercial and industrial fields. He has a strong interest in projects that combine economic development with sustainable development.
He is also recognized for his practice in disciplinary and professional law. He advises and represents syndics and officers of professional orders and self-regulatory bodies in carrying out their public-protection mandates. He regularly acts as a speaker in this field. For several years, he has served as Chair and organizer of the Barreau du Québec symposium on recent developments in ethics, disciplinary law and professional law. He has taught ethics, rules of professional conduct, and professional practice at the École du Barreau du Québec in Sherbrooke. He also served for several years as a member of the Revue du Barreau Committee and the Review Committee of the Barreau du Québec.
His practice is driven by values of excellence, diligence and integrity.
