Providing Service To Municipalities Throughout Eastern Ontario

Vice & Hunter LLP has been providing a broad range of services to local municipalities for over 40 years. We have excellent working relationships with municipalities throughout the Ottawa Valley and Eastern Ontario, and are trusted by over a dozen local municipalities to act as solicitors, to provide them with the specialized advice they require, and to represent them in all manner of disputes. We are familiar with the people and the processes involved, and with the needs and priorities of our municipality clients.

With our extensive experience in dealing with municipalities on behalf of developers, builders and property owners, we understand the motivations and interests of both sides of municipal issues. This helps us cut to the heart of the issue and focus on resolving what is actually in dispute.
