Who We Are
Our Story

Braithwaite Boyle began its journey in Edmonton in the late 1980s, driven by a commitment to bring compassionate, results-focused representation to Albertans. In the early 1990s, we expanded to a second location in Edmonton’s downtown core and then into Calgary. As our team grew, we also established offices in Red Deer and Grande Prairie. Today, our reach remains strong throughout Alberta, with a unified Edmonton office and our Calgary and Red Deer locations continuing to serve local communities.

In the early days, we pioneered Alberta’s contingency fee model to make quality legal representation accessible to all. By covering the costs of litigation upfront, we shelter clients from financial strain, allowing them to focus on recovery without worrying about legal expenses. This model means clients pay no legal fees until their case is settled, making it easier for individuals to pursue the justice they deserve, regardless of financial background. While the contingency fee model is common in Alberta now, Braithwaite Boyle set the standard for quality legal care for everyone who has been in an accident, regardless of their financial situation. From expert witnesses to medical evaluations and engineering investigations, we handle every aspect, so our clients have a strong case without bearing the burden of significant costs.
