About Laura

Laura Graham is a member of our Civil Litigation, Municipal Law, and Indigenous Peoples Practice groups, with further experience primarily in construction, insurance, and professional liability law.

Laura received a Bachelor of Science in Environmental Science (2014) and Master of Science in Earth Science (2016) from St. Francis Xavier University, where she studied natural soil emissions in cold weather environments. After working in higher education, Laura graduated from Dalhousie University in 2022, obtaining joint Juris Doctor and Master of Public Administration degrees from the Schulich School of Law and School of Public Administration, along with an Environmental Law Specialization Certificate. Through law school, Laura completed a student clerkship placement at the Nova Scotia Court of Appeal, tried her hand at competitive mooting, and was a recipient of the Judge Fran Potts Award and Schulich Scholarship. 

Laura enjoys her job most when she’s tackling interesting and complex legal issues. As her career progresses, she’s keen to see how she can increasingly take on matters that are tied to the environment and natural resources.

Outside of the office, Laura prefers to be outdoors—sometimes running, sometimes ambling. Otherwise, she may be found baking, knitting, or playing the fiddle. She is the President of the board of directors for Row Nova Scotia and can also be found at Lake Banook—as a coach to the Dalhousie University Rowing Club.
