About Ari

Ari is a dedicated personal injury lawyer who has spent his career advocating for clients in court, mediation, and judicial dispute resolutions. Since joining Assiff Law, he has focused on a wide range of personal injury matters-handling everything from catastrophic injuries, fatalities, to complex liability issues. Ari’s breadth of experience also includes accident benefits litigation, in which he challenges auto insurers who deny coverage for necessary treatment, as well as short-term and long-term disability claims, and dental and medical malpractice cases.

In 2025, Ari’s commitment to clients earned him a Best Lawyer Award nomination for his excellence in personal injury litigation. Prior to joining Assiff Law, he practiced almost exclusively in civil litigation at a full-service firm in Calgary. While in law school, he was a founding participant in the Tax Assistance Project, a pro bono initiative assisting low-income individuals with CRA disputes. He also contributed his time to Pro Bono Students Canada and Student Legal Assistance. Since 2003, Ari has been a devoted volunteer with the Project Warmth Society of Alberta, an organization dedicated to providing warm clothing to those in need.

Outside of his legal practice, Ari is passionate about financial market analysis, engaging in day and swing trading of forex and cryptocurrency. He also enjoys discussing cryptocurrency trends and dedicates time to staying active as an avid gym enthusiast. Above all, Ari’s goal is to deliver straightforward, results-driven legal counsel-ensuring each client receives the representation and support they deserve.
