ABOUT YVAN SILVA
I am a Lawyer at Gibsons LLP, where I have transitioned from my articles into a practice specializing in business law, civil litigation, and tax law, providing strategic counsel within the Canadian legal landscape.My background includes over five years of legal practice in Brazil, specializing in litigation and tax law. This experience, paired with an LL.M. in Canadian Common Law from Osgoode Hall Law School, provides me with a versatile, dual-system perspective that I apply to every legal challenge. My journey, from practicing law in Brazil to managing teams at BMO and Loblaw, has taught me that effective legal counsel requires more than just technical knowledge; it requires empathy, clear communication, and a business-first mindset. Fluent in Portuguese and English, I am dedicated to contributing to the Ontario legal community as a licensed lawyer. Let’s connect!
