History
Fasken is the result of a merger between three predecessor firms – Fasken Campbell Godfrey, Martineau Walker, and Russell & DuMoulin. Fasken Campbell Godfrey in Toronto was formed from the 1989 merger of two long-standing Toronto firms, Fasken & Calvin (which began as Beatty and Chadwick, founded in 1863 by William Henry Beatty and Edward Marion Chadwick)[5]
