Our History

The firm opened its doors in July, 1984 when Michael Birdsell and his assistant Kim Marshall (now office manager) established a sole practice in the same location on Main Street in Stony Plain now occupied by Birdsell Grant LLP. In May of 1985, Mike was joined by Alastair Grant and Charles Gardner in 1991. The firm was known as Birdsell Grant Gardner and began to develop its expertise working with families, family businesses and municipal governments in Stony Plain, Spruce Grove, Parkland County and Edmonton.

The firm has evolved over the years and the partnership proudly consists of Alastair Grant, Ray Frayne, Ziad Sheena, Joanna Waldie and most recently, Kate MacLennan.

We are honoured to continue serving many of the businesses and families (and their children and grandchildren) who were clients more than 30 years ago, and we continue to volunteer our time and services to a wide range of community, service and professional organizations.
