Amir started out his career as a Chartered Accountant (now known as “C.P.A.”) at Deloitte while completing the Chartered Accounting Co-Op Program through his undergraduate business degree studies at SFU. After five “busy seasons” in accounting, Amir attended Dalhousie University and obtained his LL.B. in 2006. Amir primarily practices in private company business matters covering a wide range of matters from business formation (incorporations, limited partnerships) to business acquisition/divestiture (share sales, asset sales), and just about everything in between (commercial agreements, leases, shareholder agreements, employment matters), and in each case across a wide variety of industries. When pressed for a quick answer, Amir summarizes his work simply as “contracts”. Prior to joining Richards Buell Sutton LLP, Amir articled and practiced with a large regional firm and later was a partner at a mid-size Vancouver firm.
