Pavey Law LLP is a full-service firm that's deeply rooted in Cambridge. It's practised under the Pavey Law name since 1995, when it was named for Don Pavey and Brian Law, but the practice is much older than that. It continues predecessor firms whose roots reach back to the 1950s in Galt and the early 1930s in Preston. One of those Preston predecessors was started by Lida Pearson, whom the firm describes as one of the first women lawyers in Ontario.
Its lawyers work in corporate and commercial law, family law, civil litigation, real estate, employment, construction, and wills and estates. They advise individuals, businesses, and organizations in Cambridge, across the greater Waterloo Region, and beyond.
