Fasken will be strongly represented and looks forward to hosting its friends at the International Bar Association’s (IBA) 2025 Annual Conference in Toronto, November 2 – 7, 2025. A firm-wide team representing various practice areas and industries will be attending.

Fasken is a full-service law firm with 900+ lawyers in offices across Canada in all major business centers, as well as 20+ lawyers in London and 50+ lawyers in Johannesburg. With a deep bench strength in cross-border M&A and litigation, we solve the most complex business and litigation challenges and put clients at the centre of all we do.

Recent league tables highlight Fasken’s role as a leading M&A Advisor, being ranked at No. 1 in eight categories for the period Q1 2024.  These include Mergermarket (Canadian M&A by deal count), PitchBook (M&A deals by geography and representing both companies and investors – outside of the US & Europe) and LSEG Data & Analytics (any Canadian involvement announced based on deal count; any Canadian involvement completed based on deal count; Canadian involvement small-cap based on deal count; Canadian involvement mid-market based on deal count).  These rankings further solidify Fasken’s leading position having retained similar No. 1 rankings over FY’2023 and FY’2022.

Fasken also continues to rank among the top 15 firms globally for M&A advisory work by deal count according to multiple organizations, including top 10 rankings in global M&A mid-market tables and global Private Equity tables.

In 2024, Fasken was named Global Mining Law Firm of the Year by Who’s Who Legal for the 15th time. This is the Firm’s ninth consecutive win, with Fasken receiving this award more times than any other law firm in the world. Fasken was also named “Mergers and Acquisitions Law Firm of the Year” in the 2024 Best Lawyers in Canada Guide and named the Employment Law Firm of the Year at the Chambers Canada 2023 Awards.  

Although we lead some of the world’s most complex transactions, we are also at home acting as local counsel, assisting international law firms and ensuring that deals are done in real time with the highest levels of service and advice.
