McLeish Orlando welcomes Brandon Pedersen as an Associate

Brandon joined McLeish Orlando as a summer student and went on to complete his articles with the firm. After his call to the bar in June 2021, Brandon joined the firm as an associate.

When Brandon was young, two of his family members were killed in a motor vehicle crash as a result of a negligent driver.

While at law school, Brandon served as a volunteer caseworker and student director at one of Western Law’s legal clinics. Brandon was also heavily involved in Western Law’s mentorship program, providing guidance and support to fellow law students. In addition, Brandon was a three-year member of both the Western Law Men’s Hockey Team and the Law Games Team, where he competed in everything from ultimate frisbee to ball hockey.
