About Us

We aren’t looking to be just another commercial law firm

Cornerstone Law is a niche law firm that has been established by a small group of experienced commercial lawyers. Having worked together for many years in senior management positions at national and leading provincial law firms, our people are looking to take the best practice from these firms and adapt them for a niche firm environment to meet the needs and expectations of commercial clients.

Having canvassed clients’ views, Cornerstone’s approach to providing legal services to commercial real estate clients will be based upon the following key features:

 

  • A focus on core real estate work, including closely-connected work areas such as construction and complementary commercial and corporate services
  • Participants who have enjoyed working together for years bringing a more relaxed and informal relationship with clients, whilst working from a solid base of professionalism, commercialism, enthusiasm and compliance.
  • A combination of low cost base and an embedded fixed fee culture providing budget certainty and transparency at cost effective levels
  • Services delivered wholly or mainly by the lawyers with the relevant client relationship

 

Cornerstone Law was launched with a determination to achieve excellence for clients where it is sought, in service delivery, rather than where it is often found in traditional firms: in office premises, branding and PR.  We are not looking to replicate or develop into current law firm models: the intention is to change the way clients and lawyers interact in real estate work, and to provide a commercial real estate service that responds to the expectations of the market.


A contemporary and reliable service that
puts the interests of clients first
