Real estate partner Robert Bothwell has joined Dentons in Edmonton from rival firm Bennett Jones, where he was co-head of the firm’s real estate practice group, and also added Amie Heil to its trust, estates and wealth preservation group. At the same time, Leah Tolton moved her corporate law practice to Bennett Jones from Dentons in oil-rich Alberta’s capital city.

Bothwell, who was at Bennett Jones for almost 19 years, has a practice focused on commercial real estate transactions and financings, commercial lending, commercial/retail developments and condominium and multi-family developments, said Dentons.
