Cameron D. Neil

Cam articled with Feltmate Delibato Heagle LLP in 2003/2004 after receiving his law degree from the University of Western Ontario. He was called to the Bar in 2004. Prior to law school, Cam received his Honours Bachelor of Arts degree in psychology and legal studies from the University of Waterloo.

Cam has extensive equipment leasing and collections experience, having worked in the legal department of an equipment leasing company based in Oakville throughout law school. He now acts as counsel for a number of equipment leasing companies in such matters as debt collection, asset recovery, fraud claims, bankruptcy proceedings and priority disputes.

In addition to equipment leasing disputes, Cam handles a variety of civil litigation matters including construction disputes (residential and commercial) including construction liens and breach of trust cases, estate litigation, consumer protection, commercial litigation and breach of contract cases, oppression remedy cases, shareholder and partnership disputes, general debtor-creditor litigation, torts, product liability, and landlord and tenant disputes.

Cam is regularly before the Superior Court of Justice as part of his civil litigation practice. The fruits of his efforts in seeking a drastic Mareva injunction can be found in the reported decision of Justice Daley in O.K. Tire Inc. v. McLaughlin, [2008] O.J. No. 637, 2008 CanLII 6196 (ON S.C.). A recent landslide trial victory can be found in the reported decision of Justice Festeryga in Grosvold et al v. Pioneer Petroleums Management Inc., [2010] O.J. No. 2940, 2010 ONSC 3958 (CanLII), in which Cam acted for the successful Defendant, petroleum retailer Pioneer.

Cam has also appeared before administrative tribunals, such as the Landlord and Tenant Board and the Criminal Injuries Compensation Board, and most notably had the honour of assisting the Ipperwash Inquiry into the 1995 O.P.P. shooting death of Anthony “Dudley” George, culminating in the May 31, 2007 report of Commissioner Sydney Linden.

He is a member of the Advocates’ Society, the Ontario Bar Association, the Ontario Trial Lawyers’ Association and the law associations of both Halton and Hamilton. In addition to providing pro bono legal counsel to local not-for-profits and charities in Oakville and Burlington, and volunteering as a mediator, Cam is a volunteer director of the Oakville Chamber of Commerce.

“Throughout his career, a lawyer’s most important asset is his integrity.”
