Access to Information

WITTEN LLP is a leader in the dynamic and relatively new area of access to information and privacy law. Our firm has been actively providing advice and support to clients looking to access government information, public bodies dealing with access requests or privacy issues and government departments in need of legal opinions on complex access and privacy issues. We also provide advice and support to corporations implementing privacy policies for their organization.

In order to stay on the leading edge of this emerging field, our lawyers developed and published the Annotated Alberta Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act. This book serves as a summary and explanation of the Alberta FOIP Act and is used extensively by professionals working in this sensitive practice area.
