About Best Lawyers in Canada
Best Lawyers in Canada has conducted peer reviews of Canadian lawyers for 10 years, publishing the first edition of its directory in 2006. Peers are asked to rate nominees on how likely they would be to refer a matter to the nominee if they were unable to handle the matter themselves. Its international Board of Advisors also contributes to its understanding of the legal landscape.
