Heenan Blaikie LLP is a defunct Canadian law firm. It practised in the areas of business, labour and employment, litigation, taxation, entertainment law and intellectual property law.[1] The firm was founded in 1973 by Roy Heenan, Donald Johnston, and Peter Blaikie.[2]
Based in Montreal, at one time the firm had over 500 lawyers at offices in Toronto, Ottawa, Calgary, Vancouver, Victoria, Quebec City, Sherbrooke, Trois-Rivières and Paris,[3][4] with a representative office in Singapore[1][2][5] and a satellite office in Los Angeles. As of February 2011, it was the sixth largest law firm in Canada.[5] It became the largest law firm to close in Canadian history after its partners voted to dissolve the firm on February 5, 2014.[6][7] The firm closed on February 28, 2014.[8]
