About
I have advised small businesses for over a decade on most every concern facing a business owner from the start up to the winding up of a business. I am licensed to practice law in the US and Canada, making me uniquely qualified to advise my business clients on Cross Border Business activities.My legal experience includes handling multi-million dollar commercial transactions, sales & purchases of businesses, corporate reorganizations, trademark infringement disputes, and shareholder buy outs. I also advise businesses on UCC /secured transactions, asset protection, and creditor protection. In every case I strive to give my clients practical solutions, and not just legal answers because an answer of "No , you can't do that" just isn't helpful to a business owner.

Dawn was very easy to talk to, knowledgable, and offered great advice in an easy to understand way. She was very helpful teaching this novice about business and my best options going forward starting a small business. Highly recommended!
I have hired Dawn on three separate occasions to look over my contracts. What most impresses me about her is her responsiveness and honesty. It is truly hard to find people that do what they say they are going to do, when they say they are going to do it. In addition to that she doesn't give advise that she isn't comfortable standing behind. For example, when I asked her questions that didn't relate to what she specializes in she was happy to direct me to someone else that did. I very much appreciated that she was honest and referred me to someone else rather than giving me an answer that she wasn't confident in. After working with her on several occasions I can confidently say that she will be an important part of my team for years to come.
Dawn has provided me with legal consul three times. Twice over the phone and once in person. Issues discussed included employment, cross border employment, non-compete documents and legal ramifications of competing with former employers. She followed-up on each of our meetings with an email detailing our discussion. These included additional information she researched after our meetings as well as links to relevant laws or cases. This was extremely helpful. Her 'bedside manner' was professional and approachable. The law will always have 'grey' areas, Dawn presented these in a manageable way that allowed for effective decision making. Priceless.
Ms. Deans was able to thoughtfully help me navigate my way through several tricky circumstances to come to the best solution for my cross border business legal needs. I will most certainly continue to use her services inhte future.
Dawn has helped me in a few areas of my business where I was seeking legal advice. She has always been prompt in her reply when I've reached out to her. Dawn approaches each question and situation thoroughly and thoughtfully, providing positive feedback and support. I wouldn't hesitate to call Dawn for any future legal needs.
Dawn is a remarkable lawyer- she is very competent, knowledgeable and straight-forward when writing/reviewing legal documents and offering her advice. I felt very comfortable and trusted in her abilities when asking her for legal guidance. She followed through on every aspect that needed to be completed, responded quickly when I had questions and was approachable on all inquiries I had. She answered all of my questions- no matter how small they were! She was very diligent at making sure everything was completed in a timely manner. She has a very “humanistic” approach- she respected all my questions and concerns, gave excellent legal support and provided a “realistic” approach to the sea of “lawyer” terms! I highly recommend Dawn- an excellent choice in legal advice!
I have worked with Dawn on a few mutual clients in the context of business incorporation and due diligence for business acquisition. Both the clients and I felt that Dawn has been consistently providing excellent legal advice and work that exceeded our expectations. She is very approachable and always keeps us in the loop. As an accounting professional, I highly recommend Dawn.
Helped flesh out a commercial sub-lease. She was very helpful, reasonable and fairly priced. I would and will use her services again and strongly recommend her to anyone.
Dawn Deans is so far removed from the "Greedy Lawyer" stereotype, which makes it a true pleasure to work with her. Many of her services are offered for a flat rate fee rather than by hourly billing, so her clients can know the total costs of certain services up front and not have to worry about their legal fees quickly (or unexpectedly) escalating. Dawn also encourages legal literacy to the extent that she explains everything she is doing on behalf of her clients to them, and she also lets her clients know when they are more than capable of filling in a simple or straightforward form by themselves (rather than incurring legal fees to have her fill it out on their behalf). "Fleecing" her clients for unnecessary fees or extraneous services seems positively foreign to Dawn. In our experiences working with her, she has been nothing but honest, forthright, and diligent. We have only glowing and positive things to say about her service! We enlisted Dawn's services when we were first deciding whether or not to incorporate our small business. Dawn walked us through the pros and cons of incorporation in a way that was accessible and easy for us to understand, but she didn't pressure us to make a decision one way or another. Once we decided to proceed with incorporation, she covered the legal aspects of this process on our behalves efficiently, professionally, and with great communication at every step. She has also been involved in drafting policies, terms and conditions, and client service agreements for us. It has been a delight to have our company's legal needs taken care of by somebody who is so knowledgeable, friendly, and honest. I truly feel like Dawn offers the best of both worlds when it comes to lawyers-- she is sharp and skilled in her field but she is also warm and compassionate as a person. She engages with her clients in a professional manner, of course, but she never seems to abandon her humanity, either. We would heartily endorse her services!
Dawn is a compassionate and detail oriented person and this is reflected in her work as a lawyer. She is fair and trustworthy and I would recommend her without hesitation.

"Fleecing" her clients for unnecessary fees or extraneous services seems positively foreign to Dawn. In our experiences working with her, she has been nothing but honest, forthright, and diligent. We have only glowing and positive things to say about her service! We enlisted Dawn's services when we were first deciding whether or not to incorporate our small business. Dawn walked us through the pros and cons of incorporation in a way that was accessible and easy for us to understand, but she didn't pressure us to make a decision one way or another. Once we decided to proceed with incorporation, she covered the legal aspects of this process on our behalves efficiently, professionally, and with great communication at every step. She has also been involved in drafting policies, terms and conditions, and client service agreements for us. It has been a delight to have our company's legal needs taken care of by somebody who is so knowledgeable, friendly, and honest. I truly feel like Dawn offers the best of both worlds when it comes to lawyers-- she is sharp and skilled in her field but she is also warm and compassionate as a person. She engages with her clients in a professional manner, of course, but she never seems to abandon her humanity, either. We would heartily endorse her services!
Dawn is a compassionate and detail oriented person and this is reflected in her work as a lawyer. She is fair and trustworthy and I would recommend her without hesitation.
Dawn was very easy to talk to, knowledgable, and offered great advice in an easy to understand way. She was very helpful teaching this novice about business and my best options going forward starting a small business. Highly recommended!
I have hired Dawn on three separate occasions to look over my contracts. What most impresses me about her is her responsiveness and honesty. It is truly hard to find people that do what they say they are going to do, when they say they are going to do it. In addition to that she doesn't give advise that she isn't comfortable standing behind. For example, when I asked her questions that didn't relate to what she specializes in she was happy to direct me to someone else that did. I very much appreciated that she was honest and referred me to someone else rather than giving me an answer that she wasn't confident in. After working with her on several occasions I can confidently say that she will be an important part of my team for years to come.
Dawn has provided me with legal consul three times. Twice over the phone and once in person. Issues discussed included employment, cross border employment, non-compete documents and legal ramifications of competing with former employers. She followed-up on each of our meetings with an email detailing our discussion. These included additional information she researched after our meetings as well as links to relevant laws or cases. This was extremely helpful. Her 'bedside manner' was professional and approachable. The law will always have 'grey' areas, Dawn presented these in a manageable way that allowed for effective decision making. Priceless.
Ms. Deans was able to thoughtfully help me navigate my way through several tricky circumstances to come to the best solution for my cross border business legal needs. I will most certainly continue to use her services inhte future.
Dawn has helped me in a few areas of my business where I was seeking legal advice. She has always been prompt in her reply when I've reached out to her. Dawn approaches each question and situation thoroughly and thoughtfully, providing positive feedback and support. I wouldn't hesitate to call Dawn for any future legal needs.
Dawn is a remarkable lawyer- she is very competent, knowledgeable and straight-forward when writing/reviewing legal documents and offering her advice. I felt very comfortable and trusted in her abilities when asking her for legal guidance. She followed through on every aspect that needed to be completed, responded quickly when I had questions and was approachable on all inquiries I had. She answered all of my questions- no matter how small they were! She was very diligent at making sure everything was completed in a timely manner. She has a very “humanistic” approach- she respected all my questions and concerns, gave excellent legal support and provided a “realistic” approach to the sea of “lawyer” terms! I highly recommend Dawn- an excellent choice in legal advice!
I have worked with Dawn on a few mutual clients in the context of business incorporation and due diligence for business acquisition. Both the clients and I felt that Dawn has been consistently providing excellent legal advice and work that exceeded our expectations. She is very approachable and always keeps us in the loop. As an accounting professional, I highly recommend Dawn.
Helped flesh out a commercial sub-lease. She was very helpful, reasonable and fairly priced. I would and will use her services again and strongly recommend her to anyone.
Dawn Deans is so far removed from the "Greedy Lawyer" stereotype, which makes it a true pleasure to work with her.

Both the clients and I felt that Dawn has been consistently providing excellent legal advice and work that exceeded our expectations. She is very approachable and always keeps us in the loop. As an accounting professional, I highly recommend Dawn.
Helped flesh out a commercial sub-lease. She was very helpful, reasonable and fairly priced. I would and will use her services again and strongly recommend her to anyone.
Dawn Deans is so far removed from the "Greedy Lawyer" stereotype, which makes it a true pleasure to work with her. Many of her services are offered for a flat rate fee rather than by hourly billing, so her clients can know the total costs of certain services up front and not have to worry about their legal fees quickly (or unexpectedly) escalating. Dawn also encourages legal literacy to the extent that she explains everything she is doing on behalf of her clients to them, and she also lets her clients know when they are more than capable of filling in a simple or straightforward form by themselves (rather than incurring legal fees to have her fill it out on their behalf). "Fleecing" her clients for unnecessary fees or extraneous services seems positively foreign to Dawn. In our experiences working with her, she has been nothing but honest, forthright, and diligent. We have only glowing and positive things to say about her service! We enlisted Dawn's services when we were first deciding whether or not to incorporate our small business. Dawn walked us through the pros and cons of incorporation in a way that was accessible and easy for us to understand, but she didn't pressure us to make a decision one way or another. Once we decided to proceed with incorporation, she covered the legal aspects of this process on our behalves efficiently, professionally, and with great communication at every step. She has also been involved in drafting policies, terms and conditions, and client service agreements for us. It has been a delight to have our company's legal needs taken care of by somebody who is so knowledgeable, friendly, and honest. I truly feel like Dawn offers the best of both worlds when it comes to lawyers-- she is sharp and skilled in her field but she is also warm and compassionate as a person. She engages with her clients in a professional manner, of course, but she never seems to abandon her humanity, either. We would heartily endorse her services!
Dawn is a compassionate and detail oriented person and this is reflected in her work as a lawyer. She is fair and trustworthy and I would recommend her without hesitation.
Dawn was very easy to talk to, knowledgable, and offered great advice in an easy to understand way. She was very helpful teaching this novice about business and my best options going forward starting a small business. Highly recommended!
I have hired Dawn on three separate occasions to look over my contracts. What most impresses me about her is her responsiveness and honesty. It is truly hard to find people that do what they say they are going to do, when they say they are going to do it. In addition to that she doesn't give advise that she isn't comfortable standing behind. For example, when I asked her questions that didn't relate to what she specializes in she was happy to direct me to someone else that did. I very much appreciated that she was honest and referred me to someone else rather than giving me an answer that she wasn't confident in. After working with her on several occasions I can confidently say that she will be an important part of my team for years to come.
Dawn has provided me with legal consul three times. Twice over the phone and once in person. Issues discussed included employment, cross border employment, non-compete documents and legal ramifications of competing with former employers. She followed-up on each of our meetings with an email detailing our discussion. These included additional information she researched after our meetings as well as links to relevant laws or cases. This was extremely helpful. Her 'bedside manner' was professional and approachable. The law will always have 'grey' areas, Dawn presented these in a manageable way that allowed for effective decision making. Priceless.
Ms. Deans was able to thoughtfully help me navigate my way through several tricky circumstances to come to the best solution for my cross border business legal needs. I will most certainly continue to use her services inhte future.
Dawn has helped me in a few areas of my business where I was seeking legal advice. She has always been prompt in her reply when I've reached out to her. Dawn approaches each question and situation thoroughly and thoughtfully, providing positive feedback and support. I wouldn't hesitate to call Dawn for any future legal needs.
Dawn is a remarkable lawyer- she is very competent, knowledgeable and straight-forward when writing/reviewing legal documents and offering her advice. I felt very comfortable and trusted in her abilities when asking her for legal guidance. She followed through on every aspect that needed to be completed, responded quickly when I had questions and was approachable on all inquiries I had. She answered all of my questions- no matter how small they were! She was very diligent at making sure everything was completed in a timely manner. She has a very “humanistic” approach- she respected all my questions and concerns, gave excellent legal support and provided a “realistic” approach to the sea of “lawyer” terms! I highly recommend Dawn- an excellent choice in legal advice!
