Murray H. Miskin, Personal Injury Lawyer
Murray H. Miskin, is an Ontario lawyer who has been providing legal services in a wide range of areas to Canadians since he was called to the Bar in 1981. Murray Miskin received his BA from Trent University, Peterborough in 1976 and graduated from Osgoode Hall Law School with his law degree in 1979. After he graduated, he worked mainly on accident claim compensation with two Toronto law firms for 6 years until 1985 before relocating to a small firm in Whitby. Murray began to work in Alternative Dispute Resolution in 1985 when he started to teach Arbitration and has worked as an Arbitrator and Mediator for many years since 1987.
In April 1988, the first Miskin Law Office was opened in the historic Old Whitby Library. Murray’s law office in Whitby handled personal injury, real estate, wills & estates, and a wide range of other legal work. In 2004 the emphasis of Murray’s practice shifted from accident claims to injury from dangerous products, including prescription drugs and asbestos. The firm moved its main office to Peterborough in 2012. This experience helped Miskin Law become the leading mesothelioma law firm in Canada. With the growth of the firm to now have 4 lawyers Murray has shifted much of his time to firm management and overseeing all areas of practice. In addition to civil court and dispute resolution, Murray is now applying his knowledge and experience to real estate and estate planning. Murray regularly meets with clients at our offices in Peterborough and Oshawa.
Along with managing the firm and consulting on cases, Murray now focuses on Estate Planning to help you make the right decisions when it comes to your family and estate.
