Langlois Celebrates Stellar Success in 2025 Best Lawyers in Canada

August 29th, 2024

Another record-breaking year for Langlois: 60 colleagues recognized in the 2025 editions of Best Lawyers in Canada and Best Lawyers: Ones to Watch in Canada.

  • The prestigious legal directory recognized 40 of our lawyers in nearly 30 practice areas, including 7 who are new to the rankings this year.
  • Two of our partners received the coveted "Lawyer of the Year" title: Valérie Lemaire in Insurance Law and Paul-Arthur Gendreau in Administrative and Public Law.
  • 20 were named to the Ones to Watch list, including 7 for the first time. This award highlights the excellence of lawyers with three to eight years of experience.

Jean-François Gagnon, CEO of Langlois, is delighted with this recognition: “This year, we witnessed a remarkable increase in the number of our colleagues being recognized, marking the firm’s most celebrated year to date. Our strategic vision and sustained growth underpin this success, further solidifying our position as one of Canada’s most prominent law firms. It’s important to recognize that the achievements reflect the collective efforts of the Langlois team, with each member contributing through their passion and unwavering commitment. Excellence is at the core of our mission, and our team exemplifies this dedication every day.”
