We are pleased to announce that McCarthy & McCarthy and Clarkson Tétrault have agreed to merge into a single law firm effective today.

Its lawyers have been active participants in major corporate transactions involving both national and Quebec based clients. On the litigation side, they have been involved in major commercial, insurance and regulatory cases and in some of Canada's most significant cases dealing with constitutional issues. They are impressive, energetic individuals and we are delighted that our firms have agreed to merge.
