Founded in 1939, Curtis Dawe has been serving Newfoundland & Labrador for over 85 years – and we’re just getting started.

We’ve been providing expert legal counsel to corporate, government and individual clients since before our province joined confederation. 


There have been many changes over that time, but our approach remains the same: an independent perspective, a high standard, and a fierce determination to represent our clients to the best of our abilities.

Those values, applied across a diverse practice, continue to lead to success for our clients and a strong referral network among our peers.

How can we help you?
