Dennis Wood and Mary Bull established Wood Bull LLP as a specialty practice law firm that focuses on municipal, planning and development law, with particular emphasis on the land development approvals process and municipal finance.

We are able to address client needs at any stage of an approval process, from the initial concept through to final approval, including representations before approval bodies, tribunals, and the courts.

Our specialized expertise includes not only a thorough understanding of the relevant law and policy frameworks but also the various technical considerations that can be critical to the success of various approvals processes such as land use planning, municipal servicing, market economics, transportation, and environmental sciences (including noise, dust and odour issues).

Wood Bull has advised a broad range of clients, ranging from some of the largest development firms in Canada to individual property owners to public authorities at the municipal, provincial, and the federal levels.
