Blake, Cassels & Graydon LLP (Blakes) is proud to announce that Partner Pamela Huff will be the first Canadian inducted into the Women of Restructuring Hall of Fame by the International Women’s Insolvency and Restructuring Confederation (IWIRC) this April.

Pamela has advised on some of the most significant and complex restructuring and insolvency matters in Canada throughout her distinguished career with the Blakes Restructuring & Insolvency group, which is widely regarded as one of the country’s preeminent corporate restructuring teams. Her practice spans commercial restructurings and insolvency litigation at all court levels in Canada, often with cross-border reach. Pamela’s influence has been critical in shaping the development of insolvency law, regularly setting precedents and devising solutions to some of the industry’s most complex challenges.

“Pamela’s induction to the Hall of Fame is a testament to her remarkable achievements and enduring impact on the restructuring community,” commented IWIRC Chair Evelyn Meltzer. The award recognizes her ability to create “win-win-win outcomes” for clients, courts and the insolvency community by crafting tailored solutions to unprecedented commercial challenges. 


I am deeply honoured by the Hall of Fame recognition. As a member of IWIRC throughout my career, I have benefited from the networking opportunities and the support provided to professional women advancing their careers in the insolvency and restructuring industry. I have been committed to the mentoring and promotion of young talent, and I believe that my success is reflected in the women coming up behind me that have embraced and succeeded in this practice.
