As a Canadian law firm, we are focused on changing the legal landscape for Canadian lawyers. We offer clients the freedom to choose how they engage our firm while providing our diverse legal talent with challenging work for sophisticated clients without sacrificing flexibility or control.


Our lawyers have benefited from the training and experience that “big law” provides and most have spent time in an in-house environment.
