TORONTO, August 9, 2011— Wilson & Partners LLP, the affiliated tax law firm of PwC in Canada, is proud to announce that it is celebrating 10 years of serving Canadian and international clients. Over the past 10 years, the Toronto-based law firm has achieved several milestones including growing its initial team of three lawyers to 15 lawyers, with offices in Montreal and Vancouver.
“We are pleased to be celebrating a decade of building an excellent reputation among our clients and the legal community for innovative and responsive tax advice,” says Jim Wilson, founding partner. “From inception Wilson & Partners was the only law firm of its kind to adopt a purely tax services model, a model that was subsequently adopted by others.”
Wilson & Partners LLP was founded in July 2001 by senior partner Jim Wilson with the support of PwC with the vision of bringing to clients the complementary skill sets of tax lawyers and tax accountants.
“We attract talent because we are known for having a collegial working environment with interesting and challenging work,” says Elizabeth Johnson, the current managing partner of the firm. “Although we are a smaller firm, we have been recognized in global and national rankings as go-to tax advisers for those looking for a high level of technical analysis and creative problem solving.”
