BGCH’s beginnings can be traced back to 1973, marking the graduation of Stanley Z. Grossman and David H. Bresver who teamed to form Bresver Grossman, based on Bay Street. As with most law firms, the names would change over time and it would not be until 1982 that the name Bresver Grossman Chapman would first appear, following the addition of David E. Chapman to the firm.
What is key in the development of any law firm is the people whose contributions lend it its distinctive identity and overall culture. BGCH gathered its pedigree through the efforts of the colourful characters that have brought their varying talents, strengths and specialties to the table, lawyers and staff alike.
With over 45 years of experience, BGCH has strategically retained its boutique-sized status, and when combined with the essential and enthusiastic services of law clerks and support staff, the firm employs 20 talented individuals.
The calibre of those who work at BGCH and their unflagging commitment and dedication to doing the best job possible have engendered an enviable degree of loyalty from our clients, large and small – many of whom have been part of our team for years and for all the right reasons. This, coupled with a sincere belief in moving forward through supporting our teams and by recruiting the best talent, is in keeping with BGCH’s clients-first philosophy – one which has buoyed and supported the firm since its inception.
The future of BGCH lives in our determination to help our clients grow their businesses and by continuing to earn their confidence with their ongoing legal needs. 100% Canadian and fiercely independent, BGCH has never believed in growth for growth’s sake, choosing to base our organizational goals on evolving to meet each client’s long-term interests while keeping their businesses successful in the short-term.
