The oil and gas industry has brought to Newfoundland and Labrador increased business activity, employment opportunities for individuals, and investment opportunities for local, national, and international companies. Unique and complex legal issues often accompany the development and expansion of the oil and gas industry in this province. Our managing partner, Norman Whalen, served for a time as vice-chair of the Canada Newfoundland and Labrador Offshore Petroleum Board (C.N.L.O.P.B.) and has extensive experience in this area.

Martin Whalen Hennebury Stamp has the experience to respond to all issues which may arise in this industry. Our lawyers have the experience in insurance, construction, corporate and commercial, fisheries and marine - or other areas of law - to provide legal services for resolving disputes, implementing contracts, and defending or pursuing contractual, comprehensive property damage or personal injury claims that may arise in this context.
