Detailed description:
From the early 1990s to the early 2000s, Davis sought to establish a broader geographic presence to offer enhanced regional, national and international services to its clients. The firm undertook a rapid expansion, opening offices in Whitehorse, Yellowknife, Toronto, Montreal (an acquisition of Hara-Rothschild) and Tokyo in the 1990s, followed by Edmonton (a merger with Lucas Bowker & White, founded in 1948), and Calgary in 2002. The number of practice areas within the firm also increased. The firm's name was changed from Davis & Company LLP to Davis LLP in early 2007 in keeping with the founder's name and to emphasize the fact that Davis is a 'Limited Liability Partnership' (LLP), not a corporate entity.
