The year’s most highly anticipated and prestigious legal profession award show is right around the corner.
The fifth annual Canadian Law Awards take place Thursday, May 9, 2024, at the Liberty Grand in Toronto. For those looking to book tables for the show, registration has just opened.
The Canadian Law Awards honours and celebrates the most outstanding achievements in the legal industry. There are awards for the top law firms and in-house legal teams, the most significant deals and cases, and individual awards for lawyers who have demonstrated excellence and made extraordinary contributions to the profession.
The night begins at 6 pm with a cocktail reception. The awards ceremony and dinner banquet start at 7:30. And at 10:30 the post-awards celebration gets underway.
The host for the evening will be the personal finance expert and bestselling author, Melissa Leong, the resident money expert on CTV’s the Social. Leong has a long journalism career, reporting on crime, politics, terrorism, arts, and business for the National Post, the Toronto Star, and The Globe and Mail. In addition to CTV, she frequently appears on BNN, CBC Radio, Breakfast Television, CP24, Global News, Canada AM, and Newstalk 1010.
The Canadian Law Awards is produced in partnership with event partner LEAP; award sponsors Dye & Durham, Lawson Lundell LLP, Toronto Metropolitan University’s Lincoln Alexander School of Law, and Singleton Urquhart Reynolds Vogel LLP; red carpet sponsor Norton Rose Fulbright; official ballot accountant PwC; and supporting organization South Asian Bar Association of Toronto.
“I think we have an excellent bar here in Canada,” says Polson, a partner in advisory and disputes at PwC Canada. “We're happy to see people who do good work get recognized.”
“It's inspirational, frankly, to see some of the accomplishments of some of our bar.”
