About Andrew N. Zabrovsky

Andrew N. Zabrovsky is a partner in the Toronto office of Hicks Morley and chairs the firm's Human Rights Practice Group. The practice covers every part of the workplace relationship for public and private sector clients, and its centre of gravity is human rights litigation, accommodation in the workplace and labour arbitration.

Called to the Ontario bar in 2008, Zabrovsky has defended a retail client against a human rights accommodation claim and a school board in a labour arbitration. Zabrovsky especially enjoys complicated human rights and accommodation files, and works with clients toward the outcome they want, whether through litigation or alternative dispute resolution.

A lot of the job happens before anything goes wrong, through compliance advice and client training. Since 2025, The Best Lawyers in Canada has recognized Zabrovsky for labour and employment law.

Outside the office, weekends often mean a hike with family. Zabrovsky also admits to binge-watching prestige TV and is a devoted Blue Jays and Raptors fan.
