Osler, Hoskin & Harcourt LLP is a leading Toronto-based Canadian law firm founded in 1862.

History

The firm was founded in 1862 by Britton Bath Osler, the eldest of three famous brothers — the other two being Sir William Osler, one of the four founding professors of Johns Hopkins Hospital and Edmund Boyd Osler, an early president of the Dominion Bank (now, TD Bank). Britton Bath Osler would later join D'Alton McCarthy's Toronto partnership, subsequently known as McCarthy, Osler, Hoskin and Creelman. It was McCarthy's firm, Boulton & McCarthy in Barrie, which eventually became the firm now known as McCarthy Tétrault, which gives both firms a common heritage. McCarthy, Osler, Hoskin and Creelman quickly became one of the leading lights of Toronto’s legal world. In 1968, Osler became the first large corporate law firm in Canada to admit a woman as a partner, Bertha Wilson, who went on to become the first female Justice appointed to the Supreme Court of Canada[2][3].

Britton Bath Osler died in 1900, and the firm would eventually in 1916 adopt the name Osler, Hoskin & Harcourt which is the name it continues to be known by to this day.
