Toronto—Dentons is honoured to once again be recognized as a top 10 leading law firm brand in Canada, in Acritas’ Canadian Law Firm Brand Index 2015. It is also notable that Dentons made a substantial leap to a top five ranking for high-value inbound work to Canada, validating the Firm’s client-focused vision and global strategy.

As Acritas states in its official announcement, “Dentons this year has held steady in overall index score and significantly increased its share of inbound work to Canada, a very positive sign that the global expansion is working in its favour.”

“We are pleased and honoured that our Canadian and international clients have once again ranked us so highly,” said Chris Pinnington, Dentons’ Canada Chief Executive Officer. “This valuable feedback provided by Acritas verifies that our client-focused vision and services—at a local, national and global level—are providing the benefits, insights and value our clients need and expect.”

Dentons is celebrating its second anniversary as a global firm this month and recently announced a new combination with 大成. Dentons was formed in direct response to the evolving needs of clients—the firm is committed to providing in-depth industry knowledge, exceptional legal counsel and creative business and legal solutions wherever clients do business: locally, nationally or globally.

“At Dentons, the feedback and recognition that matters most is what comes directly from our clients,” said Elliott Portnoy, Dentons’ Global Chief Executive Officer. “Our positive Acritas rankings since forming Dentons demonstrate our focus on providing clients with seamless service and global presence combined with local, on-the-ground knowledge.”

“Acritas’ client survey results confirm how Dentons is successfully challenging the status quo, in Canada and around the world, by focusing on delivering superior service to our clients,” said Joe Andrew, Dentons’ Global Chairman. “Our vision and approach are resonating.”

Acritas’ independent, client-driven index measures law firm brands most favored by top companies in Canada and internationally. Interviews were conducted in the Canadian provinces of Ontario, Alberta, Québec and British Columbia across all industry sectors including finance, energy and corporate and public entities, and with approximately half of the organizations at $50 million - $1 billion in revenue and half at over $1 billion in revenue. In addition to working with Canadian respondents, Acritas surveyed general counsel from international organizations with legal needs in Canada.
