Elena Mamay

I am a litigator with Mann Lawyers LLP, where I focus on complex civil and commercial litigation, as well as estates and trusts disputes and alternative dispute resolution. My academic path began at Suffolk Law School in Boston and continued at Georgetown Law Center in Washington, D.C., providing me with a robust foundation for a multifaceted legal career.

Following my studies, I practiced law in Boston before moving to Europe, where I had the profound honour of prosecuting high profile cases involving war crimes, crimes against humanity, and genocide.

Now based in Ottawa, I guide clients through the intricate challenges of litigation, adeptly navigating complex legal issues and offering strategic solutions. My commitment to promoting access to justice is reflected in my work with Legal Aid Ontario.

In 2023, I furthered my expertise by completing an intensive training program at Harvard Law School, specializing on conflict resolution, mediation, and arbitration. I am currently developing a practice that incorporates these skills to provide clients with a more effective, cost-efficient, and non-confrontational approach to dispute resolution.

Outside of my professional life, I cherish spending time with my three children and husband. We enjoy variety of sports and outdoor activities (especially hockey). These shared moments provide a refreshing balance to our busy lives and create lots of lasting memories.
