Drew Mildon
Drew holds a Bachelor of Arts (Honours) in Literature from the University of Victoria and a Master of Arts degree from the University of British Columbia. He attended law school in Victoria and was called to the Bar in British Columbia in 2007. Drew has been working with Woodward and Company since 2004.
Along the way he has been: a lifeguard, a park ranger, a shoe-maker's assistant, an assistant epidemiologist, a teaching assistant and a legislative assistant to a Member of Parliament.
Drew is interested in developing strategic approaches to consultation and accommodation negotiations between First Nations and resource companies. His primary areas of practice are resource law, employment law, poverty law and First Nations title and rights.
Drew was drawn to the field of Aboriginal law through his academic work and hopes to shorten the gap in the dialogue of rights between his clients and the Canadian courts.
