Ogilvy Renault offered services in the areas of business law, litigation and ADR, employment and labour law and intellectual property. Ogilvy Renault's English and French bilingual character and proficiency in both the civil and common law systems led to a national and international presence.[1]

Lawyers at the firm have included:
- former Quebec Conservative premier Joseph-Adolphe Chapleau
- former Prime Minister Brian Mulroney
