DLA Piper secured a key judgement from the Supreme Court of Canada in favour of Opsis Airport Services Inc. The Court declared Quebec’s Private Security Act to be inapplicable under the constitutional doctrine of interjurisdictional immunity, unanimously concluding that key provisions of the Act interfered with the core of the federal Parliament’s exclusive jurisdiction over aeronautics. “This is not only a major victory for our client, but also an important decision for all businesses operating in the federal sphere,” commented Alan Sarhan , partner and long-time counsel to Opsis. The Canadian team representing Opsis before the Supreme Court was composed of François Tremblay and Marie-Philippe Lavoie .

Our team in Paris welcomed Paralympic swimmer @agathe_pauli as a guest speaker at a recent away day. Agathe, who we sponsor, shared her experiences of swimming, competing and training and told us what she does on a day-to-day basis. It was fascinating to hear her insights and she left us all feeling very inspired! You can watch a video from the day on Agathe's Instagram feed. 🏊‍♀️ The away day, at the Philharmonie de Paris, was also a great opportunity to reflect on our values and ambitions. We're a sponsor of the 'Disco' exhibition, currently showing in the concert hall, so we enjoyed taking this in. The exhibition is a vibrant celebration of cultural diversity and a tribute to creativity in all its forms! Thanks to the Philharmonie for hosting us. #DLAPiperFrance #Inclusion #TeamSpirit
