About Trish Stocks

Trish brings more than 30 years of administrative experience and is often one of the first points of contact for clients.

Trish brings more than 30 years of administrative experience supporting a variety of organizations to her role at DAL | Aequitas Law. Throughout her career, she has been guided by compassion, patience and a genuine desire to make people’s experiences better.

She was drawn to DAL because of its people-centred approach to legal service. Trish understands that navigating the legal system can be stressful and intimidating, and she values taking the time to understand what each person may need to feel informed, respected and supported.

As an Administrative Assistant, Trish is often one of the first points of contact for clients. She answers calls, connects clients with the appropriate team members and provides clear, respectful communication. Her training and experience in de-escalation and mental health support also help her respond with patience and care when someone is feeling overwhelmed.

Trish is also a Mi’gmaw Language Keeper, carrying cultural and linguistic knowledge that is deeply connected to her identity, community and culture. At a time when fewer people in her community speak Mi’gmaw, she understands the importance of keeping the language alive and sharing it with others. For Trish, language is more than communication—it carries culture, history, teachings and ways of understanding the world. She values the responsibility of helping preserve that knowledge for future generations. This cultural knowledge is an invaluable part of who Trish is and contributes to the perspective she brings to DAL.

At DAL, Trish’s goal is simple: to help people feel welcomed, heard and supported from their first interaction with the firm.
