Headline

Norton Rose to merge with Canada's Ogilvy and South Africa's Deneys

Comment

Parsley, none of Canada's 30 biggest law firms has an office in either Saskatoon or Regina. The province has only recently become a force in natural resources (oil and, of course, especially potash), and it's well-served with local firms like MacPherson Lesie & Tyerman, Balfour Moss, McDougall Gauley and McKercher LLP. For now, the legal HQ for Canada's energy industry is still Calgary for the most part. And although Ogilvy Renault is only the 11th-largest firm by size, it has a lot of respect within the profession and has an extremely impressive client lineup (Bombardier, RBC, SNC Lavalin, Archer Daniels Midland, GlaxoSmithKline, Lloyds, etc.) It might not be a consensus Top 5 in Canada, but it's not far off.
