Senior litigation partner Alan Parish, Q.C., can add 2014's Halifax Defamation and Media Law "Lawyer of the Year" to his long list of accomplishments. The annual Best Lawyer in Canada publication conferred this singular recognition on Parish this summer, based on ratings from his peers. Annually, only a single lawyer in each practice area and community is honoured as "best lawyer." This makes the award particularly meaningful for Parish, and Burchells. Alan was also selected for his thriving Corporate and Commercial Litigation practice. Congratulations Alan!
