About Howe Legal (ON) Professional Corporation

Howe Legal (ON) Professional Corporation is the Ontario arm of Howe Legal Professional Corporation, a small firm founded in Regina, Saskatchewan in 2012 by lawyer Jeff Howe. The Ontario corporation was established in March 2023, with a virtual office in Toronto's Harbourfront at 88 Queens Quay West. The firm concentrates on two areas: Canadian Aboriginal law (aboriginal and treaty rights, land claims, negotiation, protracted litigation, and Indigenous economic development) for Indigenous governments, corporations, and individuals, and human rights law (equality rights, human rights tribunals, administrative law, and not for profit corporations).

Jeff Howe was called to the Saskatchewan bar in June 2007 and has been a member of the Law Society of Ontario since 2023. Before founding the firm, Howe practiced civil litigation and Aboriginal law at Woloshyn & Company in Saskatoon, then spent over a decade as general counsel to a Treaty 4 First Nation and its group of companies, building an in-house legal department there until 2023. Howe also studied French and Mandarin and taught English in Taiwan for two years before attending law school at the University of Saskatchewan. The firm describes its offices as situated within the Homeland of the Métis, Treaty 4 territory, and Treaty 13 territory.
