YOU'D BE HARD-PRESSED TO FIND "WORKPLACE LAW" listed among the areas of exper!Jse on the websites of Canada's management-side major law firms or boutiques. Even Hicks Morley Hamilton Stewart Storie LLP, the country's largest management-side labour and employment law boutique, bills itself as a "Human Resources Law and Advocacy" firm. But rhen, it would be equally difficult ti:> firid"business law" listed among these firms' areas of expertise. Which}s not to say that, where appropriate, firms don't describe themselves as "business law" firms; arguably, that's the fallback descrip- ---­ tion for any firm interested in conveying the message that it provides a range of business-related legal services. In other words, business law isn't an area of expertise so much as it is an attempt to strike the balance between establishing a discrete identity or brand for a law firm witnout unduly limiting the message about the type and range ofservices its profes­ sionals provide. "Full-service," on the one hand, may be a little too vague because it could embrace a range of consumer-oriented legal services; describing a firm as a "corporate-commercial" firm, on the other hand, may not put sufficient emphasis on areas ofpractice, such as litigation, not intuitively associated with the phrase.
