Gowling WLG is a sector-focused, international law firm that believes that legal matters are people matters and it takes closer relationships between people and teams to get to the best results, in the right way. It used to be that good lawyering was mostly about knowing the law and delivering sound opinions. Today, businesses need more and demand more. We know our clients want legal advisers by their side, anticipating what's ahead and creating positive experiences for their teams. They want to work with others who share their values and do business responsibly. We take on the new realities of business in a positive and proactive way, invest in the result, and care about how we get there.
The power of teamwork: We believe we can achieve much more if we work together as a team with our clients and colleagues - however talented we are as individuals. We collaborate seamlessly across services, sectors and offices - focused on the greater good for the client and the firm. Always striving to be better: We are always striving to improve our service to clients and the way we run our own business - ambitious to improve in a highly competitive market. We all bring something different: We all bring different backgrounds, strengths and perspectives to the team. This diversity and openness make us more relevant and valuable to our clients.
