About
Laura Slater is a lawyer and the owner of Formation. She has been a member of the Law Society of Ontario since her call to the Bar in February 2001.
Through over 15 years of experience working for, and negotiating agreements on behalf of, globally recognized companies in different industries, Laura developed a breadth of expertise in business and legal practice. In conversations with business leaders and owners, she heard from them a consistent desire for new and aptly designed approaches to legal and contract management services. Based on that foundation, Formation Contract and Commercial Law was born. Drawing on the experiences she gained first as Senior Account Executive, Contracts at one of the world’s leading aircraft manufacturers, then as Strategic Contract Manager and Contracts Negotiator at one of the world’s largest information technology companies, followed by her role as Senior Legal Counsel at one of Canada’s big five banks, Laura now assists businesses of all sizes and across industries with creating the corporate structures, contractual relationships and internal policies and procedures that they desire.
