After almost three decades at a small commercial real estate and litigation boutique, Cory Sherman, a prominent Canadian real estate attorney, has joined Cassels Brock & Blackwell as co-lead of its commercial leasing team.

Sherman, who represents many of North America’s largest national and international retail and restaurant chains and several of Canada’s largest shopping malls, real estate developers, and asset managers, was one of the founders of Sherman Brown, where he practiced for almost 25 years before joining the Toronto office of Cassels as senior counsel.
