Who handles what
The neighbourhood
Streetsville is a Mississauga neighbourhood that calls itself "The Village in the City," a name the Streetsville Business Improvement Association uses for a downtown along Queen Street that it says holds more historic buildings than any other part of the city. Day + Borg's own account of its history uses similar language: the firm has stayed in Streetsville since 1980 because its founders liked the "small town" feel of a village so close to Toronto, and each of its three office moves since then has kept it on Queen Street South.
Richard Bennett and founder Michael J. Day knew each other from their undergraduate years and practised across the street from one another in Streetsville for more than 20 years, before Bennett's appointment to the Superior Court bench in 2015, a small sign of how concentrated the village's legal community has long been. One of Day + Borg's own lawyers grew up in Streetsville and returned to practise there after studying law in England, the kind of local tie that keeps showing up at a firm that has never left the village since 1980.
