Our story
BCF’s story begins with eight visionaries – pioneers who dared to dream big. Thirty years ago, our founders combined their expertise so they could practice law differently. Since then, their ambition has been passed down from generation to generation, making BCF a benchmark in both the legal and business worlds. Today, we still wake up every morning with the same goal: to build a practice that combines innovation and commitment so we can better serve business leaders.
From local vision to global impact
Our innovative positioning and integrated approach — where law meets business — attract ambitious businesses and legal talent who share our vision. After establishing our presence in Montréal and Québec City, opening our Paris office in 2018 was a natural move: a way to expand our impact, meet growing demand, and deliver integrated solutions to the leaders shaping the economy both locally and abroad.
