OKT is Proud to be Recognized in the Canadian Legal Lexpert® Directory as a National Leader in Aboriginal Law

Tuesday, March 11, 2025

OKT is proud to once again be recognized in the Canadian Legal Lexpert® Directory as a national leader in Aboriginal law.

Each year, Lexpert compiles its list of recommended lawyers through comprehensive peer surveys. Based on this rigorous process, OKT has earned the distinction of being a “Most Frequently Recommended” law firm for Indigenous law services in Toronto and Yellowknife.

We are especially proud that 23 of our lawyers have received individual recognition this year: seven as “Most Frequently Recommended,” eleven as “Consistently Recommended,” and five as “Repeatedly Recommended” in Indigenous law.

This recognition reflects our team’s deep commitment to excellence and our dedication to serving Indigenous communities across Canada.

OKT would like to thank our peers for recognizing the quality of the work that we do, and as always we are grateful to our clients for allowing us to be part of their struggle for justice for Indigenous peoples in Canada.
