François J. Poirier, Attorney

François joined the Bernard & Brassard firm in 2016. He has been working in family dispute since 2002 and has been called to appear before the Superior Court and the Quebec Court of Appeal. He is one of Bernard & Brassard’s senior partners and is in charge of the family law department.

François Poirier rigorously guides his clients to achieve the delicate balance between reason, emotions and laws that is required in any conflict situation encountered in family matters.

Furthermore, after having been a part of the board of directors of the Barreau de Longueuil for years and taking part in various committees, Me Poirier is now a governor of the Fondation du Barreau du Québec.
