About Zābo Law

Zabo Law Professional Corporation is a business law practice based in Picton, in Prince Edward County, Ontario. It's registered with the Law Society of Ontario and, under the National Mobility Agreement, works with entrepreneurs across Canada, not just locally. Founder Sonya Szabo holds a bachelor's degree in business and a JD from Queen's Law in Kingston, plus certificates in intellectual property, negotiation, and entertainment law. Before turning to law, Szabo co-owned the Vic Cafe, a restaurant inside Picton's Regent Theatre, with Rick Szabo, and ran an event planning company. The Vic Cafe won an award at the 2018 Quinte Business Achievement Awards.

The firm targets businesses that are past the startup stage, generally at least two years old with revenue between $500,000 and $5 million, and handles incorporations, shareholder and partnership agreements, contracts, employment and contractor agreements, trademark protection, and business transactions. Everything is billed as a flat fee agreed before the work starts, with no hourly billing. Zabo Law also includes Toby Farrell, who joined after articling with a national firm and working as an associate in Vancouver, holding a law degree from the University of British Columbia. The practice runs entirely remotely rather than through in-person office visits.
