Administrative & Regulatory LawCivil Litigation & Dispute ResolutionAdministrative & Regulatory LawAbout Taylor Rodrigues
Taylor Rodrigues is an associate with Gowling WLG in Toronto, working out of the Advocacy Department. Much of the litigation on Rodrigues's desk has a public law angle, and the clients come from both government and the private sector.
Law wasn't the first career. Rodrigues was an economist and policy advisor with the Government of Canada, moving through several departments and briefing the Prime Minister and other ministers on urgent economic and policy questions. Today the associate makes a point of bringing a strong sense of how government operates to clients, along with an ability to get through regulatory processes efficiently.
Rodrigues earned a JD from the University of Toronto and was called to the Ontario bar in 2025. During articling, the work covered commercial and administrative litigation, and a secondment to a large public utility centred on regulatory compliance and commercial litigation.
Public interest work ran through the law school years too. At Downtown Legal Services, Rodrigues acted as a case worker defending people facing criminal and academic charges, and also co-led the Police Oversight Working Group at the David Asper Centre for Constitutional Rights.
