Our Practice

In founding Deeth Williams Wall, we had very specific beliefs that drove us to leave partnerships in a big firm to start a boutique. We believed that there had to be a better way to treat our clients, our lawyers and staff. Our job was to work on behalf of our clients and adapt our business to fit our clients’ needs. We are passionate about excellence, serving our clients well and loving what we do. These principles have guided our practice of law, and how we have carried on business, for over 30 years. They are the basis of the services and value we want to provide to you.

That’s one of the reasons why we’ve been recognized as one of top IP and IT law boutiques in Canada and abroad.
