About Lamont Law

Clients rate this firm highly on Google.

Lamont Law is a personal injury firm based in Hamilton, Ontario, with its office on Charlton Avenue West. Michael Lamont founded the firm, according to a client testimonial published on its site, and the current team includes lawyers Erica Lamont and Braden Adsett alongside paralegals Carrie Stewart and Phil Vivian. The firm limits its practice to personal injury and insurance claims: car, motorcycle, pedestrian, bicycle, and ATV accidents, slip and falls, dog attacks, medical and nursing home negligence, wrongful death, brain and spinal cord injuries, and long term disability or critical illness claim denials. It also represents policyholders in residential and commercial fire, flood, and property insurance disputes.

Erica Lamont, the firm's managing partner, grew up in Hamilton and studied biochemistry and molecular biology before earning a law degree from the University of Calgary in 2013 and being called to the Ontario bar in 2014. Erica articled at an insurance defence firm before joining Lamont Law. Braden Adsett, called to the bar in 2022, articled and worked with a well-known insurance defence firm before joining the team and now practices personal injury law exclusively before the Ontario Superior Court of Justice. Lamont Law works on a contingency fee basis for most cases, so clients aren't asked for payment up front, and it offers a free initial consultation.
