A total of 27 Lawson Lundell professionals have been recognized among Canada's foremost litigators in the 2019 edition of Benchmark Canada: The Definitive Guide to Canada's Leading Litigation Firms & Attorneys.

In addition to its individual rankings, Lawson Lundell was also listed as a "highly recommended" firm in British Columbia, and a "recommended" firm in Alberta.

Regarded as the definitive guide to the country's top litigation firms and lawyers, Benchmark Canada is the only legal directory to focus expressly on litigation. Rankings in the Legal Media Group-published guide are based on a comprehensive research process involving extensive interviews with litigators and their clients, and a thorough study of recent casework handled by the firms.

The guide's release follows the Benchmark Canada Awards gala in Toronto, where Lawson Lundell was named Aboriginal Law Firm of the Year, and Keith Bergner, a partner in our Indigenous Law Group, was named Aboriginal Law Litigator of the Year for the fourth time. At the same event, Benchmark Litigation also named Lawson Lundell as Alberta Firm of the Year.
