Contracts, Compliance, Trade

There are over 35,000 law firms in Canada. Competition for Law talent has never been greater, particularly with the rise in business activity: corporate, commercial, and private transactions are at a multi-decade high. Growing international trade is expected to create further demand. Law firms are turning to recruiters for assistance in securing needed talent.

We are steadily growing the number of recruiting engagements with law firms. Our chosen areas of expertise include Corporate/Commercial Law; Tax Law; Intellectual Property Law; Civil Litigates; International Law; General Practitioners; Labour/Employment Law; and Environmental Law.
