Cassels is proud to congratulate partner Marc Mercier on receiving the 2026 Ilsa Greenblatt Shore Distinguished Graduate Award from the University of New Brunswick Faculty of Law — a recognition that reflects the professionalism, leadership, and commitment to service that define Marc’s career.
Presented to a member of the UNB Law alumni community, the award recognizes professionalism, excellence in the practice of law, public and community service, and meaningful involvement with the law school community. Marc, who earned his LLB from UNB Law in 1991, was recognized for a distinguished legal career spanning more than three decades and for his longstanding commitment to mentorship, community engagement, and youth development through amateur hockey.
As a senior partner in the Cassels Banking & Specialty Finance Group, Marc is trusted by financial institutions, corporate clients, private companies, family enterprises, and private clients for strategic counsel on corporate finance, mergers and acquisitions, treasury management, complex restructurings, and related matters.
We are proud to celebrate this well-deserved honour and Marc’s continued contributions to our clients, our firm, and the communities we serve.
