Custom Google Search of Canadian Law Firms

By Ted Tjaden

When I closed an old Google account over the weekend, it appears that I inadvertently deleted the Custom Google Search of Canadian law firms that I had created (and that I understand is used a fair bit by researchers).

I have created a new Custom Google Search of Canadian Law Firms, now at a new URL of:

http://www.tinyurl.com/canadianlawfirms

Click here to see a sample search result on the phrase “fiduciary duties.”

The new site is free of ads and has more Canadian law firms included (now there are 51 or the larger law firms from across the country). I also hope to add some refinements to improve search results.

Please therefore update your bookmarks and feel free to forward this post within your organizations if you have previously forwarded the former (now defunct) link.

Others may not be aware of a parallel search engine for law firms called Fee Fie Foe Firm. This one allows for searching by jurisdiction, including USA, Canada, Australia, Ireland, UK, New Zealand, South Africa and Singapore. I have not compared mine to that one but will do so and report back.
