About Brooks Business Lawyers
Brooks Business Lawyers is a small business law firm in Toronto that Richard Brooks founded in 1999. Brooks earned a Bachelor of Arts from York University in 1989 and a law degree from the University of Western Ontario in 1993, then practiced international law in the Toronto office of Baker & McKenzie before starting the firm. The team today includes lawyers who trained on Bay Street and who also have hands-on experience building and running businesses of their own, and the practice sticks to business and corporate law, employment law, and commercial real estate rather than a broad general practice.
Much of the firm's work centers on advising entrepreneurs and privately held companies through mergers, acquisitions, and financings. Its disclosed transaction history spans dental practice acquisitions across the Greater Toronto Area, trucking and logistics deals, manufacturing sales, and equity financings, including for an esports company that went public. Brooks also runs an External In-House Counsel service, effectively acting as an outsourced legal department for businesses that don't have one of their own, and it bills through a mix of hourly, flat, and success-based fees depending on the matter.
