About Advocates LLP
Advocates LLP is a litigation firm in London, Ontario, founded in 1996. From the outset it restricted its practice to construction litigation, professional negligence litigation, and corporate, commercial, and business litigation, along with mediation and arbitration, rather than offering a general practice. Its lawyers work out of the Selby Building on Richmond Street. The firm represents general contractors and subcontractors on construction and infrastructure projects across Ontario, including highways, roads, and bridges, and it also defends engineers and architects facing professional negligence claims.
Advocates built its practice around early adoption of legal technology, including voice recognition software, computerized legal research, and integrated electronic document and transcript management, with the stated aim of reducing reliance on additional support staff. One of the firm's partners is a Law Society of Ontario Certified Specialist in Construction Law and has practised in the field for more than two decades. The firm has been recognized in Best Lawyers in Canada for construction law and in Best Law Firms' Canada 2026 rankings, receiving a Tier 1 regional ranking for construction law in the London/Windsor area.
