About Alexander MacMillan

Alexander MacMillan is a commercial litigator in Hamilton, working as an associate with Gowling WLG and belonging to the firm's Advocacy Group. Clients from a wide range of backgrounds have had Alexander in their corner at the Ontario Superior Court, in arbitrations and before tribunals. No two of them come in with the same goals or expectations, so Alexander builds each solution around what that client actually needs, then works alongside them to get there. Compassion sits at the centre of how Alexander litigates and advocates for clients.

Client work started early. During law school, Alexander gave legal help through Community Legal Aid in Windsor and at the Veterans Clinic in Detroit, while earning a JD at both the University of Windsor and the University of Detroit Mercy. Ontario called Alexander to the bar in 2020, and Florida followed in 2021.

Away from the office, Alexander makes time to visit family in the United States and still enjoys turning out for a club rugby team. The sport goes back to undergrad days at McGill University, where Alexander earned a Bachelor of Arts and played for the McGill University Rugby Football Club.
