Me William Noonan obtained a Bachelor in Administration from the University of Ottawa (1978) and a Bachelors in Law at University Laval (1981). He is also a member of the Canadian Bar and, in 2008, was named by his peers as one of the Best Lawyers in Canada.

He entered Hickson Martin Blanchard in 1982 at the end of his studies and learned the trade from Me Michael E. Hickson, one of the first ambassadors of the society and a real pillar for the firm. In 1999, a young lawyer, Noonan grasps his chance and takes the reins of the firm which changed its name to Hickson Noonan. He will then make it his duty to pass his knowledge to his team and transfer the forces he admired in Hickson, who died in 2008: intellectual rigour, judgement honesty and transparency.

Me William Noonan is a hardworking and experienced lawyer who has a good reputation in the business community. He is also a sought after speaker on bankruptcy and insolvency. Anxious to prepare the next generation of lawyers, he considers that combining two lawyers to manage a file, one with fewer years of experience he favors, at a competitive hourly rate, the progression of the younger lawyers while they learn from the more experienced. It offers flexibility for novices, while supervising them personally. Through his active involvement in the decision process, he can directly advise the clients to make the best possible decision.
