Dolden Wallace Folick LLP (“Dolden”) is a high performance law firm that practices insurance related litigation throughout Canada, with a focus on claims emanating from specialty lines of insurance. Our goal is to be the law firm of choice for insurers and their Canadian based litigation claims. Dolden has repeatedly been recognized as one of the top Insurance Defence firms in Canada, with offices in Vancouver, Kelowna, Calgary, Toronto, Guelph and Halifax.
We are committed to encouraging diversity, equity, and inclusion in all aspects of our work and for each partner, employee and client to feel included and respected.
We strive to attract, retain and promote employees who are the best at what they do and who reflect the diversity of the communities where we live and work, particularly for those who have been historically excluded from, and under-represented in, the practice of law.
We offer a dynamic, challenging and collaborative work environment that provides you with the opportunity to make decisions and influence results. If you are interested in making your mark and contributing to the overall success of our team, this is a perfect time to apply.
