Robertson Stromberg Listed Among Top Prairie Firms

by | Mar 21, 2017 | News

Canadian Lawyer magazine has once again listed the Top Prairie Firms in its March 2017 issue.  And again, we are pleased to see that Robertson Stromberg is listed among the top five firms for Saskatchewan.

Canadian Lawyer asked lawyers, in-house counsel and clients from across Canada to vote on the top full-service regional firms in the Prairies. They were asked to rank their top 5 firms in both Manitoba and Saskatchewan from a preliminary list, with a chance to nominate a firm that was not included on the list. Respondents’ rankings were based on firms’ regional service coverage, client base, notable mandates, service excellence and legal expertise. To be considered in the vote, firms were required to have at least one office based in the Prairies and offer a wide range of legal services. The final lists were determined through a points system, with the top 5 firms for Manitoba and the top 5 firms for Saskatchewan listed alphabetically.
