Our entrepreneurship not only distinguishes us from the competition but has earned us the recognition of one of Canada’s Best Managed Companies every year since 2007. BCF understands its clients’ business which makes us the ideal partner for ambitious startups, well-established private and public companies, investment bankers, venture capital and private equity firms. BCF’s pragmatic and forward-thinking solutions turn clients’ dreams into viable and innovative businesses.
Our relentless pursuit of excellence has earned BCF the trust of companies in all sectors of activity throughout Quebec, Canada and the world.
Management
Our management team runs the firm as our clients run their business: with heart and passion. We understand growth management issues so thoroughly that BCF has been earning the distinction as being one of Canada’s Best Managed Companies every year since 2007, an award no other Québec firm has ever received.
Executive Committee
We understand what it means to be your business advisors, as we are ourselves businesspersons, working together to build BCF.
Throughout my years as Managing Partner, from 1995 to 2020, I proudly built together with my colleagues, one of Quebec’s largest business law firms. Powered by a team of dedicated professionals and equally inspired by our primary mission to support companies in their growth, we are stronger than ever to pursue our success over the next 25 years.
