About Us

Alfred & Smith Lawyers is committed to delivering exceptional legal services across Canada. With a team of experienced and dedicated legal professionals, we specialize in a wide range of practice areas, including corporate law, family law, real estate, and litigation. Our firm prides itself on providing personalized legal solutions tailored to meet the unique needs of each client. We prioritize integrity, professionalism, and client satisfaction, ensuring that you receive trusted advice and effective representation every step of the way. At Alfred & Smith Lawyers, your legal success is our top priority.

At Alfred & Smith Lawyers, we believe that everyone deserves fair treatment, whether at work, in their interactions with insurance companies, or when facing personal injury. Our law firm was born out of a shared passion for justice and a recognition that many Canadians simply didn’t know their rights—or how to enforce them.

From the very beginning, our mission has been simple: empower individuals to take control of their legal battles by providing them with the expertise, tools, and guidance to secure the compensation they are rightfully owed. We knew that knowledge is power, and too often, people in difficult situations—whether they’ve been wrongfully dismissed, denied disability benefits, or injured in a car accident—were accepting less than they deserved because they didn’t know where to turn.

We're one firm with four core values. We believe that these values reflect our firm, our strategy and our commitment to delivering commercially-minded legal advice, client-focused services, and innovative technological solutions to support our clients.

Aligned with these values is Alfred & Smith Lawyers' commitment to being a responsible business. We take responsibility for the impact we have on the environment, seeking to reduce it as much and as quickly as possible. We strive to be a positive contributor to the communities in which we operate across our entire global network. We take steps to foster a truly diverse and inclusive workplace, that allows all of our people to flourish, for the benefit of our colleagues, the firm and our clients.

We are a barristers’ set in Ontario, practising as independent lawyers or law corporations and not in partnership.  As lawyers, we often advise and are retained on complex and high-profile commercial, tax, maritime, tort litigation and appellate work. We also handle sensitive personal issues, like family and complex criminal litigation matters with the utmost consideration for the personal and financial well-being of the individual. Our lawyers aim to resolve matters to the satisfaction of our clients by applying our collective decades of experience. We continuously strive to keep abreast of legal developments and with a wide diversity of skills and practices, our ethos is to provide a service of the very highest quality. We pride ourselves not only on excellence in advocacy and advisory work but on being accessible, pragmatic and team players.
