Why Guardian

Few Calgary firms can say their founding partner wrote the rules.

Guardian Law Group LLP was founded in 2016 by Jonathan Denis, KC, after he served as Alberta's Minister of Justice and Solicitor General. That background is not just a line on a résumé. It means the firm understands how legislation, regulators and government decisions are actually made, and how to use that on a client's file.

We are a general practice firm that persists in obtaining results, regardless of the length or complexity of the matter. Whether it is alternative dispute resolution, civil litigation or a defamation claim, the right expert is put on the right job.

Effective communication

We keep you up to date on your matter and give it the attention it deserves. We do not stop until it is resolved.

Understanding staff

Our knowledgeable staff work with you directly, and several are multilingual, including Spanish speakers.

We stay in our lane

We put the right expert on the right job. Ten practice areas means you are matched, not squeezed into a fit.

In our clients' words

The same three things come up again and again.

Responsive. Transparent about cost. Persistent until the matter is resolved. These reviews are from Guardian clients.

“I was in a car accident this summer and was told it would be good to get a lawyer. I have never had to acquire one before and was super unsure of the whole process. The staff at Guardian were super informative, they explained the process for me and had great communication throughout my case and gave me all the options I had right from the beginning. They made the whole process super seamless and easy compared to the insurance companies I had to deal with for the accident. I would highly recommend Guardian Law, they truly have your best interests in mind.”
David WalkerPersonal injury
“This firm exceeded my expectations with a strong team of professionals. They worked within my budget and develop an exceptional relationship with their clients. I was never intimidated to ask a question or express my viewpoint. Jonathan Denis is approachable and down to earth. His team is results orientated and transparent. This firm is talented and dedicated, it is clear that their clients come first!”
Heather SLitigation
“Mr. Denis and his team have been invaluable during the last 6 months. I contacted Mr. Denis regarding an issue with past tenants which had escalated to the court level. Mr. Denis had my back the whole time. He made this experience tolerable… and we won!! Without his advice and words of wisdom, I'm not sure I could have gotten through this. What a great team!!”

“Thank you to Jonathan for his quick and efficient work on my employment case – it was handled with the utmost professionalism and he definitely fought on my behalf. The resolution was satisfactory and he stood for me and my best interests. I would definitely recommend him.”
Ronda HarrisEmployment
“These lawyers have expertise in a lot of different areas of law but also still deal with you with the personal care that you get from a very small firm. Perfect for a growing business.”
SashaéBusiness
“Jonathan Denis and his team have been invaluable in their counsel & legal advice for many years. While we hope to never have to use them, we have peace of mind knowing that whenever something does come up Guardian Law Group will be diligent and affordable in representing us.”
