Stéphane Chatigny, LL.B, D.E.A

About 

Mr. Stéphane Chatigny joined the firm in January 2022 as an attorney and partner. A graduate of Laval University with a degree in law and of the University of Toulouse 1 Capitole in France with a degree in European Union law, he has been practicing as a trial attorney since 1998, notably at major Canadian law firms and in the Legal Department of BCE/Bell Canada.

Between 1993 and 1998, he lived in Toulouse (France), Brussels (Belgium), and Luxembourg-City (Luxembourg), where he studied and practiced European Union law, notably as an intern at the European Commission in Brussels.

In Québec, specializing in legal counsel and dispute resolution—including alternative dispute resolution—he has appeared before all judicial courts in Quebec, the Federal Court, the Commission of Inquiry into the Sponsorship Program and Advertising Activities (Gomery Commission), the Administrative Labor Tribunal, and private arbitrators.

Between 2008 and 2021, he also represented his Asian clients before administrative decision-makers of the Government of Quebec under the Immigrant Investor Program. Thus, in addition to his commitment to dispute resolution, Mr. Chatigny brings to the firm’s clients his in-depth knowledge of China and Hong Kong, where he practiced for ten years. In August 2020, he testified as an expert witness before the House of Commons Special Committee on Sino-Canadian Relations.

Mr. Chatigny handles commercial and general civil litigation, including shareholder disputes, real estate disputes, franchise agreements and unfair competition, joint-ventures, estate planning, and termination of employment contracts.

In 2025, he represented former Member of Parliament Nathalie Sinclair-Desgagné before the Superior Court of Quebec to seek the annulment of the April 2025 federal election in the riding of Terrebonne. On February 13, 2026, for the first time in its history, the Supreme Court of Canada, upon direct appeal of the Superior Court’s decision, annulled the election held in that riding due to significant irregularities committed by the local Elections Canada office.
