Steven Gillen Paul Agnew

Steven’s practice is focused primarily on corporate commercial and securities law, with a particular emphasis on public and private corporate finance, M&A, stock exchange listings, and regulatory compliance. Steven has extensive experience acting for issuers (public and private) and investment dealers in a wide variety of industries and transactions including prospectus offerings and initial public offerings, private placements, amalgamation and arrangements, take-over bids, rights offerings, reverse takeovers and other corporate restructuring transactions. He advises clients on corporate finance, stock exchange and regulatory compliance matters, corporate governance, and continuous disclosure obligations, and he is regularly asked to assist with strategic decisions by boards of directors.

Steven began his career practicing corporate/securities law at the Toronto office of a large and prominent national law firm for several years. He then practiced at an entrepreneurial boutique firm specializing primarily in corporate finance for junior issuers until 2014, when Steven joined the team at Irwin Lowy LLP.

Steven received his Bachelor of Laws in 2005 from the University of Windsor, and a Bachelor of Arts from Bishop’s University in 2001.
