Stewart McKelvey first Atlantic Canadian law firm to receive a Legal Marketing Association Your Honour Award
Stewart McKelvey has received the Legal Marketing Association’s (“LMA”) Your Honour Award, in the category of Events, for its ongoing sponsorship of the Halifax Chamber of Commerce‘s Annual Fall Dinner.
