Founder and Principal Lawyer at Zel Law
Civil Litigation & Dispute Resolution
Wills, Estates & Trusts
Landlord & TenantYeliz Elénore Beygo is a Toronto litigator who handles real estate, business and estate disputes, and the founder and principal lawyer of Zel Law. Beygo serves clients in Turkish and French as well as English, and can represent them in French before courts, tribunals, boards and self-regulatory bodies.
Advocacy started well before law school. At the University of Toronto, Beygo helped lead a student movement against the citizenship rules that kept international students off the university's Governing Council. The movement changed those rules, opening Governing Council seats to international students, and the University of Toronto Act, which serves as the school's constitution, was amended for the first time in 37 years.
After a 2017 political science degree from the University of Toronto, Beygo studied French Common Law at the University of Ottawa, graduating in 2022. Beygo summered and then articled at the Crown Law Office Civil, the Ministry of the Attorney General's central litigation office, working on files that included the Robinson Treaties litigation. Beygo was called to the Ontario bar in 2024. Offers to work as Department of Justice counsel and at a firm focused on litigation were turned down in favour of smaller firms, where the work for ordinary Ontarians began on day one.
That grounding meant Beygo ran high-stakes litigation files with full carriage early on, and it shapes a methodical way of working through each dispute. Zel Law itself grew out of Beygo's wish to serve the "missing middle": Ontarians who don't qualify for legal aid yet can't pay a firm billing the classic Bay Street way.
Beygo acts as litigation counsel in real estate, business and estate disputes, both in court and at the settlement table. Appearances include the Civil Practice Court and the Small Claims Court within the Ontario Superior Court of Justice.
Estate litigation has taken Beygo before the Superior Court's Estates List.
Beygo has experience with matters before the Landlord and Tenant Board.
Beyond the courts, Beygo's administrative work reaches the License Appeal Tribunal and self-regulatory authorities.
