The neighbourhood

The Kitchener office sits in Commerce House at 50 Queen Street North, right in downtown Kitchener. From here McCague Borlack covers the Kitchener, Waterloo, and Cambridge core and reaches out across the surrounding region toward Guelph, Hamilton, Brampton, and London. This is a regional office of a Toronto firm, not a home-grown local practice, so the Kitchener presence is about staying close to the region's clients rather than a long local history.
