In that role, she was the head of the M&A legal team and advised and represented a number of multinational companies and major European manufacturers in their M&A deals and other aspects of their investment projects.
Having made Canada her home in 2018, Mandana fulfilled all requirements to practice law in Ontario and got called to the bar in 2020. Before joining Hull & Hull LLP, Mandana gained valuable litigation experience at boutique litigation firms in downtown Toronto.
