The neighbourhood
The office sits in the DBRS Building at 181 University Avenue, one of two downtown Toronto locations run by Law Chambers, an arrangement that provides shared office space, support staff, and meeting rooms for independent lawyers and small legal practices rather than a conventional single-tenant law firm suite. University Avenue itself is one of Toronto's more formal streets, a wide boulevard with a landscaped median running past Osgoode Hall and other law courts, as well as several major insurance and financial company offices, a fitting stretch of the city for a litigation and commercial law practice.
