Brandon Charles Pedersen

When Brandon was a young boy, two of his family members were killed in a motor vehicle crash caused by a negligent driver. This tragedy inspired him to pursue a career in personal injury law, where he could advocate for others whose lives have been affected by negligence.

Brandon earned his Honours Bachelor of Arts degree in Political Science from Western University and went on to complete his law degree there as well. He joined the firm in 2019 as a summer student, returned for his articles in 2020, and became an Associate at McLeish Orlando shortly after being called to the bar in June 2021.

As a lawyer, Brandon has successfully represented clients before the Ontario Superior Court of Justice, the Ontario Court of Justice, the Licence Appeal Tribunal, and the Social Security Tribunal.

Brandon is on the Board of Directors for the Ontario Trial Lawyers Association, where he also serves as Chair of the New Lawyers Division and is a member of the Interventions Committee. Brandon also acts as Vice-Chair on the Board of Directors for the Brain Injury Society of Toronto and sits on both the Fundraising Committee and the Birdies for Brain Injury Committee. Brandon is also a member of the Toronto Lawyers Association, the Ontario Bar Association, the Canadian Bar Association, and the Law Society of Ontario.

Brandon has been chosen by his peers for inclusion in Best Lawyers® “Ones to Watch” since 2025.
