About NomadLaw

Built by someone who
fought the system and won.

Where I came from

Every arena I have entered, I have found my way to the podium. Provincial football champion, undefeated season. Eight bodybuilding trophies in my first two years of competition, ranked sixth in the country. A divisional basketball trophy from Las Vegas competing two age divisions up. That pattern did not leave me when I traded arenas for sales floors.

I did not come to law from law school. I came from the floor. Twelve years of reading contracts in rooms where the other side was paid to outlast me.

Then a medical crisis. A wrongful termination on protected disability leave, 22 days after I requested workplace accommodations. A denied long-term disability claim with my physician's evidence in the insurer's hands. An illegal detention by federal police at an international border. No lawyer in my corner.

Contract law every day, in every arena. That is the practice that taught me how a system reads when the people inside it are betting on you to lose track of the receipts.

Why I built NomadLaw

I have been on both sides of the legal system: as someone it failed, and as someone who learned to fight back.

After a medical breakdown, I was wrongfully terminated while on protected disability leave. The institution I trusted to have my back turned its back on me. When I challenged the insurance company that denied my long-term disability benefits, I uncovered counsel misconduct and got it on the record, with corroboration.

Then, while entering a country as a digital nomad, I was illegally detained by federal agents. They falsified official documents and attempted to unlawfully repatriate me, two separate criminal offences. I had no lawyer. No one in my corner. So I used AI to self-represent while simultaneously sourcing a lawyer. I handed him everything he needed to file an emergency order halting my illegal repatriation.

We won.

An Air Canada representative is on a recorded call admitting he did not know why the federal police had lied to both of us. Third-party corroboration on the record. Documenting in real time made the difference.

These experiences taught me that the legal system is not inherently broken, but access to it is. If you do not have money, connections, or the right passport, you are invisible. NomadLaw exists to change that for the modern tech workforce, travellers, and anyone navigating disability rights, employment law, or international litigation without a home-court advantage.

You should not need to learn a foreign legal system the hard way. That is what I am here for.

What you walk away with

Two outcomes. Both load-bearing.

Financial recovery.

The settlement and award bands on the home page are not aspirational. They are precedent-anchored: Whiten v. Pilot Insurance for punitive uplift on bad-faith insurer conduct, Honda Canada v. Keays for aggravated damages on disability terminations, Saadati v. Moorhead for non-pecuniary psychological injury without a formal psychiatric label. The AI litigation intelligence products map your facts to those bands and walk you through the case head by head. You arrive at mediation or trial knowing the math.

Emotional ground.

The first thing the system takes from you is not the money. It is the sense that the rules apply both ways. NomadLaw is built so that the moment you start logging the receipts, the calculus changes. The institution that was betting on your exhaustion sees the case build instead. You are not alone with it anymore. You are running the file.

Counsel access at scale.

A case this big, a record this strong, opens doors that money alone cannot. When your facts are documented in real time and your record is signal-clean, the best lawyers in the world will take your call. NomadLaw's in-house counsel will be live at launch. Until then, we connect you with the network built fighting the cases on the home page.

Real cases. Real outcomes.

Not theoretical knowledge. Hard-won experience from self-representing in high-stakes legal proceedings across multiple jurisdictions and languages.
