Law firms that represented forestry contractors after the NewPage Port Hawkesbury mill closed last September will be paid.

Topics :
Chronicle-Herald , Northeastern Pulp Truckers Association , Point Tupper , Nova Scotia , Sydney

It is yet to be determined whether all the Point Tupper, Nova Scotia mill’s creditors will be reimbursed. But the Chronicle-Herald reported July 17 that Sampson McDougall of Sydney will receive $42,500 and Burchells LLP of Halifax $30,000.

The law firms were involved in the establishment of a woodsmen’s reserve fund set up after the mill requested creditor protection.

Private woodlot owners retained Sampson McDougall and the Northeastern Pulp Truckers Association and the Northeast Contractors Association employed Burchells.
