How Ontario lawyers are ranked
Every city list scores the law firms that serve that city on one LFR Score, from 0 to 100.
A city appears here once at least one practice area has 5 or more law firms that qualify to rank.
Rankings can’t be bought. Attorney advertising law firms are labelled, never numbered and never change a rank.
