About Jeramie Gallichan

Jeramie Gallichan is a partner in Gowling WLG's Disputes and Commercial Litigation group in Waterloo Region, acting for business leaders and institutions when a conflict carries legal, technical and reputational stakes all at once. The practice spans large technology disputes over AI, cryptocurrency and cybersecurity. Fraud and asset recovery, clashes between shareholders, municipal liability and complex commercial claims round it out.

Gallichan spent 2014 as a student-at-law at Duncan, Linton LLP, was called to the Ontario bar in 2015 and became a Gowling WLG partner in January 2023. That path includes the Court of Appeal for Ontario, where Gallichan was co-counsel for the employer in Evans v. Paradigm Capital Inc. The practice also takes in crisis management, arbitration at home and abroad, and sensitive employment files.

Law wasn't the first career. Gallichan worked in Toronto as a talent agent, with well-known Canadian performers on the client list, and Gallichan credits the talent-agent years with building a knack for handling high-stakes relationships and pressing a client's case, which now serves business-critical matters. Gallichan aims to give clients a clear view of their choices so they can move with confidence, whether the forum is a trial, an arbitration or a negotiation.

Gallichan was born and raised in Waterloo Region. The local bar elected Gallichan a trustee of the Waterloo Region Law Association, and the association's committee lists show Gallichan chairing its golf tournament for 2026 and 2027 and sitting on the committee behind Law Day, its mock trial program for students. Volunteer time also goes to Pro Bono Ontario, the Ontario Justice Education Network and youth sports, and Gallichan's a proud parent.
