Who We Are
Far Island Consulting was founded in 2002 by
David Allsebrook, a Toronto intellectual property
lawyer.

In 16 years in practice, he saw many inventors
and businesses struggle to realize the potential of
their inventions. He left the practice of law to offer
assistance.

David has five academic degrees, including
M.B.A., LL.B. and B.C.L. degrees from McGill
University in Montreal. While a partner at one of
Canada's largest law firms, he specialized in all
aspects of intellectual property law.

David has handled complex licensing agreements
for major multinational corporations. He has
represented clients in numerous courts, including
the Federal Court Trial Division, the Federal Court
of Appeal, the Ontario Superior Court, the Ontario
Court of Appeal, the Quebec Superior Court, and
the Supreme Court of Canada.
