Connor Swick

Connor Swick is Dinning Hunter Law’s newest Associate, though he is certainly no stranger to us. Connor joined the firm as a summer student in 2022, returned to complete his temporary articles in the summer of 2023, and completed his articles under Dinning Hunter Law’s most senior partner, Ronald J. Dumonceaux, in May of 2025. Connor continued to work with the firm as a law student throughout his second and third years of law school as well – remaining a valued member of the team.

Connor is relied on by the partners at Dinning Hunter Law for his excellent legal analysis and advocacy. His practice is focused on litigation, including family law, wills and estates, contract disputes, personal injury, and real estate disputes including collapsing deals and strata issues. Connor brings a background in construction negotiations and disputes as well, including general-sub contractor, owner-builder, and owner/builder – government.

Born in southwestern Ontario, Connor’s family moved to South Carolina for a few years before returning to the London, Ontario region. He would go on to complete his Bachelors in Medical Sciences with Honors, and receive a Masters in Environment and Sustainability from Western University.

After graduating from his Masters, Connor worked in energy and utilities management, where he developed a talent for resolving disputes with ministries and businesses. This brought Connor to law school, and his family on the west coast convinced him that the University of Victoria was the right choice. He started at UVic Law in 2021 and graduated in the spring of 2024.

Connor has kept himself busy since moving to Victoria. In addition to work and school, Connor volunteered as president of his strata council and as a law student for Access Pro Bono’s legal advice clinic.

Outside of work, you might find Connor and his fiancé at the dog park with their great Dane/lab mix Scooby, who has also become an office staple. Other than that, he’s known to tread the waters around Oak Bay crabbing and paddle boarding.
