Daniel S. Macdonald

LAWYER

Originally from London, Daniel received a Bachelor of Science in biology and
pharmacology from McMaster University and a Master’s of Science in Pharmacology from the University of Toronto before attending law school at Osgoode Hall Law School.

Daniel has over 15 years of legal experience being called to the bar in 2010 and first practicing intellectual property litigation in Toronto, before returning to London in 2012. In London, Daniel’s career focused on litigation, practicing for several years in the areas of insurance defence and personal injury law. Since 2019 Daniel has practiced solely in the area of family law.

Daniel joined Wharton Woods Family Law in 2026 and practices primarily out of the London office, serving clients in London and southwestern Ontario. Going through a separation or divorce is often challenging and stressful. Daniel provides practical, pragmatic counsel to help clients through this difficult process. Daniel has represented clients in all types of family law matters dealing with parenting, support, and property issues. Daniel has assisted clients through negotiations, mediations, and court processes, up to and including trial. Daniel focuses on solutions and resolution, but understands that not every matter can be settled, and provides strong advocacy for his client’s interests.

Daniel and his family are happy to call London home. In his spare time Daniel enjoys skiing with his family, biking with friends, and chauffeuring his children to their activities.

Daniel is a board member with Boler Mountain in London, Ontario, where he is pleased to support and promote a vibrant ski and outdoor community.
