Institutional Profile
The Architecture of Cross-Border Legal Excellence.
Altitude Law Professional Corporation operates at the intersection of rigorous academic pedigree and uncompromising courtroom execution, advising corporate titans and high-net-worth clients across North America.
Founded on Rigor. Led by Vision.
Established under the leadership of Michael Wheeler—holding an LL.B. from Harvard University and an LL.M. from the University of Cambridge—Altitude Law advises clients across the United States and Canada. Mr. Wheeler directs the firm's cross-border corporate structuring, bilateral tax advisory, high-stakes commercial litigation, and high-net-worth inheritance and wealth succession matters across the United States and Canada, including complex cross-border estate preservation.
Our practice is built on a foundational rejection of standard-issue legal bureaucracy. We approach cross-border contracts, tax structuring, commercial litigation, and the preservation and succession of family estates with precision, helping clients navigate complex legal frameworks in every relevant forum.
With dual-office operations in Stillwater, Minnesota and Ottawa, Ontario, our team provides seamless multi-jurisdictional advisory services rooted in unwavering fiduciary duty.
Sound cross-border counsel begins with a careful understanding of the legal principles and institutions governing each forum.
"True legal counsel does not merely mitigate risk; it unlocks corporate potential across borders with absolute certainty."
— Michael Wheeler, Lead Consultant
