Borden Ladner Gervais LLP (BLG for short) is a full service Canadian corporate law firm based in Toronto. The firm has over 650 lawyers practising in offices in Toronto, Calgary, Vancouver, Ottawa, Montreal, and the Waterloo region.
Their slogan is "At BLG, It Begins With Service."
The present firm is fundamentally the result of a five-way merger in 2000 which saw Borden & Elliot (based in Toronto) combine its practice with those of Howard Mackie (Calgary), McMaster Gervais (Montreal), Scott & Aylen (Ottawa) and Ladner Downs (Vancouver.[1] BLG's practices in the last two cities are considered tier one; the others second tier.[2]
