Marie-Ève Bois

Marie-Ève works with corporate executives, legal departments, managers and investors. She works in the areas of corporate finance and mergers and acquisitions, but also advises her clients on the various stages of their business’ development. She acts from the structure to the implementation of a shareholders’ agreement, including the strategy and drafting of various commercial agreements, the accompaniment in critical negotiations of financing rounds or the conclusion of mergers and acquisitions transactions. She works particularly with businesses in the technology and service sectors.

Marie-Ève is particularly concerned about her contribution to the growth of her clients and the protection of their business. Her background in private practice, in-house counsel and in the management of a legal firm has made Marie-Ève a smart lawyer who understands the different perspectives of the parties involved in a case and who is concerned about the business interests of her clients, while avoiding unnecessary detours. In addition to providing legal advice, she ensures that the companies she serves develop skills, reflexes and best practices.

Before joining Delegatus, Marie-Ève was an associate at Novalex. She also co-managed Podlégal, a firm specialized in start-up and technology law. Previously, she was legal counsel for a company in the health sector and also practiced with a Montreal firm.
