About Ryder Law Firm

Ryder Law Firm is a small litigation and family law practice based in Port Elgin, Ontario, on the Lake Huron shore in Bruce County. Lawrence Ryder has practised law in Ontario for 48 years, focusing mainly on matrimonial and family law matters. The practice also handles civil litigation, real estate transactions, wills and estates, and agricultural law issues that come up for farm families in the Grey and Bruce county area.

The firm favours a negotiated settlement over the courtroom when that's possible, and Ryder is a trained mediator who describes collaborative family law as a kinder, gentler, and less expensive approach than a fight. When a case does need to go to court, the firm draws on decades of litigation experience at every level, including the Ontario Court of Appeal. It offers a free initial consultation and serves clients across Toronto, Port Elgin, Southampton, Kincardine, Paisley, Sauble Beach, Wiarton, and the surrounding counties.
