The 15th annual CGCA took place at the Fairmont Royal York on June 10, in Toronto. Created by ZSA and the National Post, the black tie gala was sold out as law firms and companies from across Canada gathered to honour and celebrate the accomplishments of In-House Counsel.

The CGCA is Canada’s national programme designed exclusively to recognize excellence in the In-House Counsel community. This special evening honouring the best counsel in Canada brings together the senior members of the Canadian private bar and the leading In-House Counsel in the country in a celebration of the accomplishments of the Canadian legal profession over the past year.

Special thanks to our event Partners and Table Purchasers.
