About Stayshyn Law Offices LLP

Clients rate this firm highly on Google.

Stayshyn Law Offices LLP is a personal injury firm based in Hamilton, Ontario, with a second office in Cayuga that serves Haldimand County. Ted Stayshyn founded the firm in 2001, after earning a law degree from the University of Western Ontario in 1996 and being called to the Ontario bar in 1998. The firm represents injured individuals and takes cases on contingency so clients owe no legal fee unless money is recovered. Its practice covers motor vehicle collisions, slip and falls, disability claims, and class actions across Hamilton, Haldimand County, and the wider region.

The firm's roots in Hamilton law run deeper than its own founding. Ted Stayshyn's father, Justice Walter Stayshyn, founded the Hamilton firm Borkovich and Stayshyn in 1964, then spent more than three decades on the bench before retiring from the Superior Court of Justice in 2009 and joining Stayshyn Law Offices as office administrator and mentor until Walter Stayshyn's death in 2021. Retired counsel Gary Logan, a Queen's Counsel called to the bar with Honours in 1966, and lawyer Adrian Nurse, who joined in 2012, round out the team. Ted Stayshyn worked on the Walkerton class action over a town's contaminated water supply, settled for more than fifty million dollars on behalf of over two thousand claimants.
