Rita MennehFounder
Welcome to Menneh Legal S.A.
Legal counsel that treats your success as our own
Menneh Legal S.A. is a bilingual Montreal law firm advising businesses and individuals on business law, litigation, civil law, commercial real estate, finance and lending, and trademark disputes across Quebec. We aim to be your in-house, out of house lawyers, readily accessible whenever you need us.
Our bilingual team is passionate about helping clients. Personalized service lets us properly understand and care for each client's needs, and we take pride in building long-term relationships rather than one-off files. We know your time is precious, so we resolve each matter efficiently while keeping costs reasonable.
Our founder, Rita Menneh, was called to the Barreau du Québec in 2012 and practised at Fasken, one of Canada’s largest firms, before founding Menneh Legal. She holds three degrees from McGill University, two in law and one in engineering. It means we tend to see a legal problem as a system, understanding it from several angles at once and tracing it to the issue that really matters.
