Lexpert’s Rising Stars recognizes lawyers 40 and under from across the country who have made outstanding contributions in their careers thus far.
On November 19, 2024, the honorees were revealed at a gala event in Toronto. BWB is so proud that, among all the under-40 lawyers across Canada, our partner Ashley Hamp-Gonsalves was among the elite group recognized as 2024's Rising Stars.
Ashley has distinguished herself in civil litigation and administrative law, regularly appearing in Nova Scotia courts and tribunals as well as at the Supreme Court of Canada. Whether it is Aboriginal rights litigation, professional liability claims, judicial reviews, human rights matters, or workplace investigations, she is a trusted advisor and advocate to our valued clients. Ashley is also a leader in the profession, currently serving as Chair of the Aboriginal Law section of the Canadian Bar Association – Nova Scotia and a member of the Professional Standards (Law Office Management) Committee of the Nova Scotia Barristers’ Committee.
Congratulations Ashley on this well-deserved honour.
