Mr. Marchuk brings significant experience in criminal defence, family law, and civil litigation, while Mr. Ayearst has a background focused on safeguarding the rights of vulnerable persons, including work with the United Nations in human rights.

Judson Howie LLP is committed to providing accessible and client-focused legal services.

The firm's dedication to client service is further demonstrated by their involvement in significant cases, such as representing the estate of a deceased shareholder in a family-owned corporation, where they successfully obtained court orders upholding a unanimous shareholders' agreement and requiring the purchase of the estate's shares.
