B.I.G. Charity Law Group

About B.I.G. Charity Law Group

One of the highest-rated law firms in Toronto, going by its Google reviews.

B.I.G. Charity Law Group Professional Corporation practises only in Canadian charity and not-for-profit law, working on CRA charity registration, federal and provincial non-profit incorporation, and governance and compliance work including ONCA compliance for organizations across the country. Dov Goldberg started the firm in 2015 after several years practising corporate, business, and charity law at a small Toronto firm, then chose to build a practice focused only on charities and non-profits. The firm keeps two Ontario offices, one in Toronto's Bay Street financial district at First Canadian Place and one in Markham, though it tells prospective clients that most of its work happens by phone or video call rather than in person.

The team includes counsel Benjamin Miller, who articled as a policy analyst with the Canada Revenue Agency's Charities Directorate and later worked as an analyst with the Ontario Nonprofit Network and Community Legal Education Ontario, along with Ryan Mosoff and Avital Dorfman. According to the firm's own figures, a charity application typically takes 1 to 2 weeks to submit and about 5 to 6 months to reach registration, while a not-for-profit incorporation can often be filed within a day. Goldberg also set up a companion online course platform, separate from the law practice, walking founders through charity registration and governance step by step.
