History Of The Firm
Based in Ottawa, Canada and founded in 2008, Clancy PC is a boutique Intellectual Property law firm. We help our clients secure and protect their intellectual property both in Canada and internationally. Our clients range from start-ups, to SMEs, to multi-national companies. We often work with in-house counsel as an extension of their legal team and we represent a multitude of prominent, global brands.
What sets us apart is our commitment to fixed and transparent pricing. We have broken from the traditional "billable hours" model and have instead adopted a flat fee model. This means predictable legal fees for our clients. As a boutique firm, we also pride ourselves on the personalized service we provide.

Our Mission
To protect IP rights both in Canada and worldwide at a fair and transparent price.
To provide each of our clients with a personalized and premium legal service experience.
What Sets Us Apart
Cost Transparency
We set out to shake up the traditional legal model of billing by the hour and instead adopted a flat fee system. Our fee structure enables our clients to have certainty about costs in advance. No surprises. Period.
Premier Network
We have teamed up with some of Canada’s leading firms to assist with patent, industrial design, and litigation matters. Our network of specialists ensures that our clients receive the best legal advice for all matters.
Global IP Strategy Services
Clancy PC can assist you in developing and implementing an IP strategy both in Canada and abroad. Our network of top global associates ensures your IP rights will be protected by the best practitioners who operate with a billing model similar to ours in every corner of the world.
Service Excellence
Coupled with our goal of cost transparency our mission is to provide our clients with personalized, top-tier service. We have grown rapidly over the past decade primarily through word-of-mouth referrals. This is what makes our clock tick and motivates us more than anything: knowing that our clients view us as collaborators and not just service providers. Our fixed fee model means that we are liberated from “the clock” and can focus instead on providing the best quality service. Always.
