Born and raised in Saskatchewan, Izaak completed his Bachelor of Business Administration at the University of Regina before attending the College of Law at the University of Saskatchewan. During his time as a law student, Izaak gained invaluable experience working at a leading full-service Saskatchewan law firm, where he was exposed to a broad spectrum of legal practice areas. His academic excellence was recognized through numerous awards and scholarships, and he graduated With Distinction in 2016.
Izaak joined Rodin Law Firm as a Student-at-Law in 2016, and completed his articles under the mentorship of Greg Rodin, K.C. Since being called to the Alberta Bar in July 2017, Izaak has dedicated his practice exclusively to civil litigation, with a particular focus on personal injury and medical and dental malpractice. Over nearly a decade of practice, he has built a strong reputation as a dedicated advocate for his clients, representing individuals in complex litigation matters and ensuring they receive fair compensation for their injuries and losses.
Izaak is committed to securing the best possible outcomes for his clients, whether through negotiated settlements or at trial. He has successfully resolved cases involving motor vehicle accidents, medical and dental malpractice, premises liability, disability insurance claims, and all manner or other civil disputes through mediation and alternative dispute resolution, helping clients achieve fair and efficient resolution without the need for trial. However, when settlement efforts do not yield a just result, Izaak is a skilled trial lawyer who zealously advocates for his clients in the courtroom. Over the course of his career, he has been involved in a number of civil trials, representing clients in complex litigation matters before the Alberta Court of King’s Bench.
Izaak is actively involved in the legal community, and is dedicated to advancing the field of civil litigation. He is a member of the Calgary Bar Association, serves on Executive Committee for the Alberta Civil Trial Lawyers Association (ACTLA), and the Canadian Bar Association (CBA) Health Law subsection, where he has served as Chair and Past Chair. His commitment to professional development and advocacy ensures he remains at the forefront of legal issues affecting the practice of civil litigation in general, and personal injury and medical malpractice in particular.
Outside of his legal practice, Izaak enjoys the outdoors and spends as much time as possible in the mountains with his family. An avid skier, hiker, and cyclist, he embraces the challenges of nature with the same determination and resilience he brings to his legal practice.
Izaak’s unwavering dedication to his clients, his proven track record in civil litigation, and his commitment to the legal profession make him a formidable advocate for those seeking justice and compensation.
“I only have good things to say about Rodin Law Firm. Izaak Atnikov was incredible throughout the entire process. He always made himself available to answer any questions I had, and he provided really clear information and analysis that I could understand as someone who is not a lawyer. I was also really impressed with the speed and quality of service from both him and Julianna, his paralegal. I was happy with the conclusion and felt like I got the best possible result. I would recommend Rodin Law to anyone who wants comprehensive information and a team that cares.”
