About Campbell Richards Carney Lawyers/Avocats

Campbell Richards Carney is a small law firm based in Alexandria, Ontario, made up of three lawyers who focus exclusively on Indigenous and Aboriginal law. Rather than taking on individual clients in every matter, the firm is built to support other lawyers and law firms with Indigenous litigation, treaty and rights negotiations, and legal opinions, work it describes as making a client's legal team successful. Its lawyers are called to the bar in Ontario and Quebec, among other provinces, and the firm works across every Canadian province and territory. All three practice in both English and French.

Gordon S. Campbell has appeared multiple times at the Supreme Court of Canada, including on the treaty rights case R. v. Marshall, [1999] 3 SCR 456, has served as lead negotiator of comprehensive and specific claims in British Columbia, Manitoba, Ontario, and Atlantic Canada, and is the author of four law books. Nathan Richards holds a Doctorate of Civil Law in Aboriginal law from the McGill University Faculty of Law and has practiced Indigenous and Aboriginal law in Ontario, Alberta, and Quebec. Vincent Carney worked at a small Montreal law practice focused on Aboriginal law before setting up an independent practice, has appeared as counsel at the Supreme Court of Canada, and was part of the defence team in a 2023 Quebec case involving Mohawk tobacco trade rights that ended in a permanent stay of proceedings.
