Helping clients is a key driver of top
Ontario law firms' success
One of Pallett Valo's drivers of success is its
professional management team, which has
been responsible for running the business
end of the firm since 2001.
"The moment we put the team in place, the
firm really took off," Russo explains. "I hate
to say this, but the second we got lawyers out
of the day-to-day business of law, and they
focused on their clients and on providing client
service, it paid off in dividends quite quickly."
Pallett Valo's distinctive advantages:
• consistent referrals from prominent law
firms
• "right-sized thinking" approach to service
that includes the right expertise, leader-
ship, value, and balance
• longevity: the firm celebrates its 75th anni-
versary in 2023
WeirFoulds' strength lies in its ability to
outshine the competition in a variety of prac-
tice areas, and its entrepreneurial focus.
"We're really built to work with the
entrepreneurial client, and we take those
skills and apply those to the institutional
clients we have as well, so I think we bring
a [slightly] different perspective because of
that," Egan notes.
"Another driver of our success is our will-
ingness to invest in those areas that either
need further support or are growing at a rate
that means they need people added to keep
up with the workload."
Areas of expertise where WeirFoulds
is prospering:
• growth in wills and estates sector
• commercial litigation
• hiring practices and integrating new
lawyers into the firm
