We Used to Work for the Insurers — Now We Fight for You
Canmore insurance disputes often involve mountain properties, seasonal weather impacts, rental units, and high-value personal or commercial assets. When insurers delay, deny, or underpay these claims, the financial impact can be severe. After nearly a decade defending insurers, we now use that insider experience to protect Canmore residents and businesses from unfair insurance tactics.
Straight talk. Strong advocacy. Real results.

I would highly recommend Shiv Ganesh with Wilson Laycraft for a lawyer. He is down to earth, got right to work and didn't BS around, but got to the point of the matter. He listened intensely and communicated well. He is highly knowledgeable in his field . I would DEFINITELY have him represent myself or any family member, friend or acquaintance that needed a GREAT lawyer.
