About Vanier & Associates
Vanier & Associates is a general practice law firm with an office on Centrepointe Drive in Ottawa's west end. The firm's website says it has served the area, including the former municipalities of Nepean and Kanata and the upper Ottawa Valley, for 37 years. Founder Rod A. Vanier earned an undergraduate degree in political science from Carleton University in 1976, an LL.B. from the University of Ottawa in 1979, and was called to the bar of Ontario in 1981. The firm's site credits Rod A. Vanier with 43 years practising law in the Nepean and Ottawa West area and with more than 25 years of experience in business matters.
