2007 QUEEN’S COUNSEL APPOINTMENTS

Released on December 28, 2007

Fifteen Saskatchewan lawyers were honoured with Queen's Counsel (QC) appointments today.

"Since 1815, QC appointments have recognized lawyers of high standing in their profession," Justice Minister and Attorney General Don Morgan said. "Today, we honour the dedication, skill and commitment of these lawyers to the legal profession and to the people of Saskatchewan whom they serve."

Queen's Counsel is an honorary designation. Appointees must live in Saskatchewan and must have practiced law for at least 10 years in the superior courts of any province or territory of Canada, the United Kingdom or Ireland.

Individuals receiving the Queen's Counsel (QC) designation have been recommended by a selection committee comprised of Saskatchewan's Justice Minister, the Chief Justice of the Court of Queen's Bench for Saskatchewan or the Chief Justice of the Court of Appeal (on an alternating basis), and the past presidents of the Saskatchewan branch of the Canadian Bar Association and the Law Society of Saskatchewan.
