Peter maintains a broad litigation practice spanning complex commercial litigation, class actions, and product liability matters. He has acted for clients in multi-party, multi-jurisdictional proceedings, and has appeared before all levels of court in Ontario.
"We are excited to have Peter join the team," says Managing Partner, Monique Jilesen. "He brings a strong litigation background and sharp instincts. His experience across complex commercial disputes and product liability matters, combined with his dedication to understanding our clients' objectives, will make him a trusted advisor and valuable resource to our clients."
Prior to joining Lenczner Slaght, Peter practiced at a national firm, where he gained extensive experience defending multinational automotive manufacturers in product liability claims and consumer class actions across the country. He also represented clients in high stakes corporate commercial and real estate disputes.
Peter completed his JD at Queen's University. While in law school, he received the Queen's Law Prize for the highest standing in Civil Procedure and completed an exchange term at the University of Glasgow.
