After 20 years in the pulp and paper industry and another 10 years as a senior executive with J.D. Irving Limited, Gerald B. Lawson decided to start practicing law full-time in 1978. The next year, he was joined by his son Gerald M. (Gary) Lawson. For several years they worked together under the name Lawson & Lawson, specializing in business, labour and employment law and litigation. Today, the firm continues to be focused principally on these areas. Robert Creamer joined the firm in 1989, and soon the firm became known as Lawson Creamer. Kelly VanBuskirk joined the firm as a partner in 1996, after building a successful labour & employment practice in Fredericton. In 2006, Nathalie Godbout joined the partnership, bringing to the firm an additional wealth of experience in litigation and administrative law. In 2010, Mel Norton joined the partnership, signaling yet more growth in the firm, which now includes 10 lawyers and another 10 support staff. Lawson Creamer is located on the top floor of the Harbour Building on Prince William Street in Uptown Saint John. The office enjoys a fabulous view overlooking the beautiful Saint John Harbour. The firm maintains its original philosophy: to provide personal service and quickly respond to the needs of our clients. This philosophy is our benchmark and is reflected in our top quality service and advice to clients. Our lawyers and staff remain dedicated to these same quality standards.
