Firm Profile

Aviation and travel law is all we do

Founded by Bill Clark in 1999, YYZ Law (formerly Clark & Company) is a corporate and regulatory law practice with an emphasis on the aviation and travel industries.

Our main clients include business aircraft owners and operators, aircraft lessors and lessees, scheduled and charter international airlines flying into Canada, domestic air carriers, and Canadian aerospace companies.

We actively participate in a variety of industry trade associations to stay ahead of and, in fact, advise in regard to the latest developments in the aviation and travel industries.

YYZ Law is often retained by many full-service corporate law firms on specific aviation transactional or regulatory matters. We also have relationships with other practitioners specializing in aircraft and travel litigation.
