Nanette Kufeldt, Partner

Having depth and expertise in specialized areas of insurance law has a large impact on the results I am able to achieve for my clients. Since being called to the Bar, I have had a broad and varied practice. Currently, the majority of my matters are in the areas of property and construction losses, defence and recovery of home warranty claims as well as professional liability and errors & omissions claims.
I have established a solid track record and am able to quickly assess new matters and address client’s questions so files can move ahead in an efficient and cost-effective manner. Sharing my expertise and lending a hand on firm files whenever it is needed helps all our clients achieve the results they are looking for.
In addition to my appearances at all levels of Court in Alberta, I have appeared before the the Subdivision and Development Appeal Board, the Appeals Commission and before the Courts for fatality inquiries relating to insurance matters.
I enjoy paddle boarding, running, hiking, traveling, and riding motorcycles. I have run 9 marathons, including all 7 World Major Marathons. My ideal vacation destination is always somewhere I have never been.
