Meagan Bortis - Vice Chair

Little & Company LLP


About

I graduated from law school at the University of Saskatchewan in 2014 and was called to the bar in 2015 after completing my articles at the Saskatoon Court of Queen’s Bench.  After articles, I immediately started working for Little & Company, LLP.  We are a full-service firm and practice in many areas of law, including family law, civil litigation, wills and estates, criminal defense, corporate/commercial and real estate.  Our office takes a unique perspective to the practice of law by offering a more casual and friendly atmosphere, while still providing high quality representation. In 2019 Little & Company LLP opened a satellite office in Warman, in an office sharing arrangement with Remax North Country.  We contemporaneously became members of the Prairie Sky Chamber of Commerce and have maintained that membership since this time.
