Gowling WLG is home to one of the largest and most respected Indigenous law practices in Canada.

Since the 1950s, we have been at the forefront of Indigenous law in Canada. We've worked alongside First Nations, Métis and Inuit peoples in landmark self-government agreements, resource development projects and Supreme Court cases. We've also acted for project proponents and governments at every level.

This singular legacy enables us to provide you with sophisticated legal advice in every aspect of Indigenous law – delivering practical, cost-effective solutions that help you advance your vision and achieve your goals.

As a full-service law firm, Gowling WLG is equipped to meet your diverse legal needs – from treaty rights and inherent rights, land claims, self-government, taxes and trusts to energy, mining, economic development and environmental matters.

We actively recruit lawyers of Indigenous ancestry and support numerous initiatives that promote their advancement in the legal profession.

In addition, Gowling WLG is one of the only full-service law firms in Canada that acts for Indigenous clients, as well as private industry, project proponents and all levels of government. Our clients benefit from our in-depth insight into the views of parties on all sides of the table, and the national scope of our practice gives you the benefit of best practices and strategies from across the country.
