Harvey Katz Law LLP is a law firm in Hamilton, Ontario that has practiced in the city for more than 45 years. Founder Harvey Katz was called to the Ontario bar in 1978, after studying at the University of Toronto and earning a law degree from the University of Windsor. Katz was born and raised in the Hamilton area and built the practice there, and the firm now employs four lawyers working out of an office on Hess Street South downtown. The team includes Eli Jakubovic, an Operating Partner who joined the firm in 2009, along with Michael Bishop and Bianca Zimperi, both called to the bar more recently. All four lawyers belong to the Law Society of Ontario, the Hamilton Law Association, and the Hamilton Lawyers Club.

The practice centers on personal injury and disability claims, alongside real estate, wills and estates, and civil litigation. On the injury side, the firm handles car and truck accidents, motorcycle and bicycle collisions, slip and falls, and related claims, and it represents clients appealing denied Canada Pension Plan disability benefits, first through a request for reconsideration and then, if needed, at a hearing before the Social Security Tribunal. The real estate practice covers residential and commercial transactions along with mortgage financing, and the wills and estates work includes powers of attorney and estate administration.
