Best Lawyers® is one of the oldest and most respected peer-review publications in the legal profession. A listing in Best Lawyers® is widely regarded by both clients and legal professionals as a significant honour, conferred on a lawyer by their peers. 

Since it was first published in 1983, Best Lawyers® has become universally regarded as the definitive guide to legal excellence. Best Lawyers® lists are compiled based on an exhaustive peer-review evaluation. More than 113,000 industry leading lawyers are eligible to vote (from around the world), and more than 13 million evaluations of lawyers by their peers have been submitted to date. Lawyers are not required or allowed to pay a fee to be listed; therefore, inclusion in Best Lawyers® is considered a singular honour.

Best Lawyers® Ones to Watch awards are recognitions given to lawyers who are earlier in their careers for outstanding professional excellence in private practice in Canada. "Ones to Watch" recipients typically have been in practice for 3 - 8 years.
