"Analytical. Creative. Fearless."
I am proud to announce that the Ontario Court of Appeal’s first decision of 2025 is a win for Davidson Cahill Morrison LLP’s clients. The
After a short stint working as in-house counsel for a property developer, Peter began his litigation career at DAVIDSON CAHILL MORRISON LLP (formerly Will Davidson LLP) in 2017. Working primarily out of the firm’s Huntsville office for clients throughout the province, Peter has built a broad commercial and insurance-based practice with a focus on personal injury and property loss.
Peter’s love for law is rooted in his respect for the power of argument. In his youth, Peter wrote an essay that convinced his parents to buy him a Nintendo gaming system. Thrilled with his success, he proceeded to hone his analytical skills during his studies and continues to do so as a lawyer.
A fearless advocate, Peter uses a combination of trial advocacy and creative alternative dispute resolution techniques to help his clients achieve their desired outcomes. Peter frequently attends at the Superior Court of Justice and the Court of Appeal where he has successfully litigated numerous trials and appeals. He has also successfully resolved countless disputes by way of mediated settlement.
Peter is an active member of the legal community, and is a member of the Canadian and Ontario Bar Associations, the Ontario Trial Lawyers Association, The Advocates Society, and is a board member of the Muskoka Law Association.
Peter was called to the Ontario Bar in 2015. Prior to that, he received his J.D. from the University of Windsor in 2014 and his B.A. from Queen’s University in 2008. He completed his articles at a full-service firm on Bay Street where he specialized in commercial litigation.
When not in practice, Peter enjoys spending time with his family, travelling, playing his violin, and enjoying the Muskoka outdoors.
