David Lavoie

Personal Injury Lawyer

For more than 25 years, David Lavoie has focused exclusively on personal injury and insurance disputes, advocating for people who’ve been hurt or unfairly denied benefits. A senior lawyer known for calm, decisive advocacy, David has steered countless trials, mediations, and high-stakes negotiations to successful outcomes. He has also served as a mediator in complex injury matters.

David knows most files resolve before trial, but when fairness can’t be achieved at the table, he’s fully prepared to proceed to court.

Educated at the University of British Columbia, David earned both his undergraduate and law degrees there and was called to the British Columbia Bar in 1993. He is also a member of the Alberta Bar. Today, his work is devoted to representing individuals (not insurers), drawing on insight he gained earlier in his career handling files for insurance companies. That experience gives him a clear view of how insurers evaluate risk, value claims, and build defences–knowledge he now uses to his clients’ advantage.

Beyond his legal practice, David enjoys time with his family and rescue dog, Leo, and he’s often found listening to music, planning his next trip, or taking on home-renovation projects.
