About Andrew Hardie Ballantyne, Barrister and Solicitor
AHB is the Ontario law practice of Andrew Hardie Ballantyne, a barrister, solicitor and notary public. Andrew handles civil litigation, personal injury and insurance disputes, as well as contract and landlord-tenant matters. Selected consumer protection files and real estate deposit recovery work are part of the practice too.
Andrew's clients are people and businesses with serious legal problems on their hands: individuals and families, homeowners, landlords and tenants, and business owners and contractors. The practice also covers construction and lien disputes and estate-related matters.
The office is at Suite 400, 3500 Dufferin Street in Toronto. AHB serves the Greater Toronto Area and the Greater Simcoe Area, and takes on clients elsewhere in Ontario where it makes sense. Meetings can happen by phone, over Zoom, or in person where appropriate.
In 2026, CBC Toronto featured AHB's work helping homebuyers recover lost deposits. If your problem doesn't fit neatly into one of the listed practice areas, you can still book a consultation.

AHB handles injury and accident claims, slip and fall cases and workplace injuries. It also takes on WSIB claims and appeals where benefits have been denied or disputed.
