François, who regularly pleads before the Quebec Courts, has participated in the outcomes of important decisions rendered by the Quebec Court of Appeal in recognizing the rights of the creditors holding real rights in securitized assets, whether financed or leased, in insurance claims. These decisions have had the effect of improving the leverage creditors/lessors have when dealing with insurers over the last few years.
