About Arbeit Law

Arbeit Law is a Toronto employment and labour law firm in the Hudson's Bay Centre at Yonge and Bloor. The practice works exclusively in employment and labour law, representing both employees and employers, from small and mid-sized businesses to multinational corporations. It advises workers at every stage of the working relationship, from hiring through employment to termination, and helps employers manage workplace matters to protect their organizations.

The firm was founded by Andrew Lee, who earned a B.A. Hon. from the University of Toronto in 2007 and a J.D. from Queen's University in 2011, and was called to the Ontario bar in 2012. Before founding Arbeit Law, Lee trained at two smaller labour and employment law firms. The practice has appeared as counsel in civil court, at grievance and interest arbitration, before the Human Rights Tribunal of Ontario and the Ontario Labour Relations Board, and in Ministry of Labour proceedings, and Lee has been hired to write publications for Lancaster House, a national research organization focused on labour, employment, and human rights law.

The neighbourhood

Arbeit Law's office is on the 35th floor of the Hudson's Bay Centre at 2 Bloor Street East, in the tower above the Yonge and Bloor subway interchange, where two subway lines meet. Parking is available a block north on Asquith Avenue. It's an easy reach for employees and employers coming from across the Greater Toronto Area, which suits a practice that represents both sides of the employment relationship rather than serving one company or one neighbourhood.
