Hicks Morley is pleased to announce that Evan Howard has joined the firm as Pensions, Benefits & Compensation Counsel. Evan brings a unique blend of private practice and in-house executive leadership experience, having practised pension and benefits law at leading national firms before spending 14 years at a multi-employer, jointly sponsored pension plan. Mr. Howard obtained his LL.B. from the University of Western Ontario in 1994 and was called to the bar in Ontario, in 1996.

“Our clients are dealing with more complexity than ever at the intersection of pensions, benefits and workplace strategy,” says Natasha (Tash) Monkman, Chair of Hicks Morley’s Pensions, Benefits & Compensation practice group. “Evan’s addition strengthens a core differentiator for our firm and, most importantly, gives our clients even more bench strength to draw on—so they can move quickly and confidently, fully supported by the integrated advisory and advocacy support that is unique to Hicks Morley.”

Please join us in welcoming Evan to Hicks Morley!
