As market leaders in Transactional, Advisory, Tax and Litigation, Baker McKenzie's strength is in the ability to combine our knowledge of Canadian federal, provincial and local laws with an unparalleled international perspective. We work closely with colleagues across our offices in the Americas, Europe and Asia to stay abreast of the regulatory, investment and trade trends in those regions and to help clients achieve their domestic and international business objectives.
With more than 60 years of experience in the Canadian market, we are committed to helping our clients fulfill their ambitions in an increasingly complex global marketplace. The quality of our work is reflected in the number of the leading global and Canadian multinationals and financial institutions that seek our advice on complex matters in industries including retail, manufacturing, mining, transportation, pharmaceuticals and oil and gas.

We act for many of the world’s and Canada’s largest multinationals, offering first-class domestic and cross-border legal advice on a range of business issues. Our Transactional group has particular expertise executing cross-border transactions and paving the way for the success of these deals through tax-efficient deal structuring, antitrust regulation compliance, employee redundancy programs and acquisition financing.
