For more than 63 years, Nelligan Law has been deeply connected to the Ottawa community. As a firm founded and grown here, giving back is a fundamental part of who we are and how we practice. Our commitment shows up in practical, meaningful, and often hands-on ways through sponsorships, donations, pro bono work, free legal education, and stepping up when our community needs support.
Over the decades, we’ve contributed to a wide range of initiatives, from long-standing community partnerships to rapid responses during moments of crisis.
Whether through partnerships, education, donations, or direct support, we aim to give back to the city we’ve served for more than 63 years.
Over a four-year period, we contributed $100,000 to The Ottawa Hospital to support critical healthcare initiatives in our region.
We have a long history of supporting legal education in our city, including many years of sponsoring the uOttawa Moot Court and mentoring the next generation of lawyers.
We’re proud sponsors of Skifest, helping support families of seriously ill children with safe, affordable, compassionate accommodations.
We are annual sponsors of the Royal Ottawa Open, which raises funds for patient care and mental health research at The Royal.
Beyond sponsorships and donations, we also respond directly when our community faces urgent or unexpected challenges.
During the pandemic, we launched a free employment law helpline for people facing sudden job loss, health and safety concerns, and confusion around government benefits.
The helpline supported over 550 people when they needed guidance most.
