Madeline Green

Madeline, a member of our professional regulation team, brings a wealth of experience in defending a diverse array of professionals, including but not limited to massage therapists, physical therapists, pharmacists, counselors, engineers, and land surveyors. Her expertise spans across handling complaints and disciplinary actions, providing counsel on ethical matters, regulatory issues, policy development, and representing professionals in various investigations such as workplace disputes, privacy breaches, issues of abuse, and sexual misconduct, along with employment-related concerns, fraud, and quasi-criminal issues tied to professional practice.

Beyond her specialization in professional regulatory matters, Madeline has carved a niche in insurance defense, particularly focusing on product liability cases. Her journey as an insurance defense litigator, representing clients across all levels of courts in British Columbia, enriches her practice with a comprehensive and nuanced perspective.

Madeline's path to law was both geographically and academically diverse. Her academic sojourn included a stint at Sciences Po Paris in France, before she returned to Canada to complete her law degree at the Schulich School of Law at Dalhousie University, where she graduated in 2019. During her law studies, Madeline distinguished herself by securing top honors in Intellectual Property Law, International Law, and Immigration Law, evidenced by her receipt of the Bereksin & Parr Prize, the Professor Ronald St. John Macdonald Prize, and the Alistair Fraser Award, respectively. She also contributed her skills and passion to the Jessup moot team, showcasing her commitment to both her studies and her extracurricular engagements.

When not immersed in legal battles or intellectual pursuits, Madeline finds joy in the simpler pleasures of life. She is an avid cook, with a particular fondness for Italian cuisine, a sci-fi enthusiast, and a dedicated caretaker to her pets, including a cat, dogs, and chickens that roam her backyard.

Madeline's educational background is as varied as her professional experience. She holds a Bachelor of Arts (Honours) in History from the University of British Columbia, completed in 2014, and benefited from an enriching exchange program at the Paris Institute of Political Studies (Sciences Po) between 2011 and 2012. Her commitment to her profession is further underscored by her affiliations; she was called to the British Columbia Bar in 2020 and is an active member of both the Law Society of British Columbia and the Vancouver Bar Association.

Throughout her career, Madeline has not only shared her insights and expertise through legal representation but also contributed to the broader legal community through publications. Her works include discussions on the ethical considerations of massage therapists treating family members or friends and the implications of using electronic devices in treatment settings. Through her practice, publications, and participation in professional organizations, Madeline continues to contribute to the evolving landscape of professional regulation, insurance, and liability law.
