Summary:
"This
history
of one of Atlantic Canada's most storied and successful law firms was written in 2009 to mark the firm’s first 150 years. In the opening chapter, the
firm
makes a key strategic movement in wooing former New Brunswick Premier Frank McKenna to join
Mcinnes
Cooper
."--From stephenkimber.com website.
"Founded in 1859,
McInnes
Cooper
has supported clients through nearly every major event in Atlantic Canada's
history
. The
firm
acted for the White Star Line in the sinking of the Titanic in 1912. When the French munitions ship Mont Blanc exploded in Halifax Harbour in 1917,
McInnes
Cooper
was retained to represent its owners.
McInnes
Cooper
represented Mitsubishi, the builder of the Ocean Ranger when it capsized off the coast of Newfoundland in 1982. The
firm
acted for the Province of Nova Scotia in the Royal Commission into the Wrongful Conviction of Donald Marshall Junior. When Nova Scotia Power was privatized in 1993, the
firm
handled part of the legal work in what was at the time, the largest IPO in Canadian
history
. In 2007,
McInnes
Cooper
scored a tremendous win for The Beaverbrook Art Gallery in the dispute between the Gallery and the Beaverbrook UK Foundation over competing claims to ownership of 133 works of art"--From mcinnescooper.com website.
