At Cooper Regel, the needs of our northern clients aren't just part of our practice - they ARE our practice. We maintain a fully staffed office in Yellowknife and serve northern communities across the Yukon, the Northwest Territories and Nunavut, visiting communities all over the north. Steven Cooper and Alan Regel are known across the north for their years of work with northern communities, culture, and businesses.

Cooper Regel is a member of the Masuch Law Firm operating from our Sherwood Park and Yellowknife offices. We specialize in Aboriginal Law, Corporate and Commercial Litigation, Administrative and Tribunal Law, Residential School and Abuse Claims. A former resident of the Northwest Territories and Nunavut, Steven Cooper articled in Hay River, NWT and practiced there for eight years at the start of his legal career.

We have been retained for the purpose of representing survivors of the schools excluded from the CURRENT Federal Day School settlement. We are in the process of speaking to survivors and assessing which institutions/schools should be included in a class action against the federal, and potentially provincial, government and/or institutions.

You have the right to legal counsel and advice throughout the claims process. This support is already paid for under the settlement agreement and is available to you at no cost. You can reach the legal teams responsible for providing you support at the numbers below.
