GAR 100, 2012 says “What sets Perley-Robertson apart is that they really assigned the top people to the case and gave it their full heart and attention.” and recognizes the firm for providing “credentials at an unusually competitive hourly rate and has experience of working on cases not necessarily connected to Canada.” Barry Leon, Partner and Head of the firm’s International Arbitration Group, is recognized as a “well-known Canadian arbitration practitioner”.

In addition to Mr. Leon, other senior members of the firm’s International Arbitration Group include Andrew de Lotbinière McDougall, Special Counsel and former Group Head, R. Aaron Rubinoff and Thomas McDougall, Q.C.  As well, the team includes associate lawyers specializing in international arbitration who are trained in common law and civil law, and bilingual in English and French.

“It is a true honour for us to be recognized again by Global Arbitration Review” said Barry Leon, Partner and Head of the firm’s International Group, “We are delighted that Canadian companies are increasingly recognizing that we can provide high-quality senior-level specialized international arbitration representation comparable to leading firms anywhere in the world, and no matter where the arbitration is taking place ─ and we can do so at a sensible cost and with a real understanding of the needs and expectations of Canadian companies.”
