About Edward Khidirov

Business conflicts, contested estates and trusts, and family cases that turn adversarial are the kinds of disputes Edward Khidirov takes on from Gowling WLG's Ottawa office. Edward is an associate whose courtroom experience already reaches the Ontario Superior Court of Justice and the Ontario Small Claims Court, along with the Canadian International Trade Tribunal.

While still a law student at McGill, Edward was Estateably's lead legal researcher, building provincial and state rules for administering estates and trusts into that legal technology company's product. Edward's call to the Ontario bar followed in 2025.

Access to justice runs through Edward's earlier work too. Before joining Gowling WLG, Edward did legal and social policy research for a not-for-profit whose mission is better access to justice for minority communities defined by official language, and in early 2024 Edward was on the Montreal staff of the Quebec Community Groups Network as a legal and social policy researcher. Clients can work with Edward in English, French or Russian.
