Profile


Luke Woolford

Luke is a lawyer in the Business Law Group. His practice focuses on corporate and commercial law.

Before joining Cassels Brock as an associate, Luke worked as both a summer and articling student at the firm, primarily gaining experience in commercial drafting and various corporate and financing transactions.

During his articling term, Luke participated in a secondment arrangement with the Ottawa Senators. As part of this secondment, Luke gained significant experience drafting a number of commercial agreements for the Senators organization.

While in law school, Luke was a caseworker with the Community and Legal Aid Services Program, a clinic primarily operated by law students to serve low-income members of the community and was also a member of the Dean’s Fellows Program, an initiative in which upper year students facilitated study sessions for first year students.

Prior to attending law school Luke worked as a case worker for a private non-profit corporation in Toronto that provided subsidized housing and support to clients with histories of homelessness and mental illness.
