June 15, 2020

We are proud to announce that Harper Grey’s Managing Partner, Jonathan Meadows, has been named Insurance Litigator of the Year by Benchmark Canada® 2020.

With over 20 years of dispute resolution experience, Jonathan enjoys a busy broad based civil litigation practice. His practice includes working on behalf of insurers, representing directors and officers and companies with respect to coverage issues, advising and assisting physicians in professional liability and disciplinary matters and representing both plaintiffs and defendants in a broad range of multi-party cases and class actions. In 2019 his strong leadership skills were leveraged as he stepped into the role of Managing Partner.

“Juggling the responsibilities of Managing Partner while maintaining a busy practice is no easy feat – but it’s one that Jonathan continues to succeed at,” says Harper Grey partner and Insurance Group Chair Nigel Trevethan. “Jonathan is known for bringing a well-rounded perspective to each of his files – something that is appreciated by both his clients and colleagues alike. We are extremely proud to have him recognized as Insurance Litigator of the Year. From all of us at Harper Grey, congratulations Jonathan!”
