Drawn by his passion for real estate, he returned to the firm in the beginning of 2006, and became a partner in 2008.
Ryan is engaged on a wide array of commercial and residential properties, including development sites, industrial buildings, office buildings, shopping centres/retail complexes, and multi-family residential. He is an expert in his practice of property taxation and has extensive experience on property tax and property transfer tax issues. Ryan regularly advises clients on tax strategies and represents them through the various levels of negotiations and appeal, both as an agent and expert witness. His expert testimony has been accepted by the Property Assessment Appeal Board and in commercial arbitrations, and he has been involved in several precedent setting cases.
