About Chu & Huang Law
Chu & Huang Law is a small, Toronto based practice at 180 Bloor Street West, run by Christopher Chu. Chu was called to the Ontario Bar in 2015 after earning an LL.B. (Honours) from the University of Leeds and a B.A. from McGill University. Before opening the firm, Chu worked as an associate at a defence firm in downtown Toronto, including on a financial litigation matter involving the CRA and FINTRAC. The firm describes its approach as an external, in-house style capacity for founders and executives, working alongside accountants, lenders, and real estate professionals on corporate, commercial, and real estate files.
The practice's work spans corporate and strategic transactions, commercial and technology agreements, real estate and asset deals, dispute oversight, and fractional in-house counsel, alongside residential and commercial real estate, business law, and landlord-tenant matters. Its site points to a $120 million commercial land transaction and a $5.8 million two-pharmacy asset sale among its work, along with advising a multi-location hospitality group on acquisitions and leasing. Chu speaks Cantonese and Mandarin. The firm's law clerk, Bonnie Chan Bynoe, brings more than ten years of conveyancing experience to its real estate files, and the team also includes a self-described 'client satisfaction concierge,' a dog named Benny who greets clients at the office.

Good to know
Wheelchair accessibleWho handles what
The neighbourhood
The firm's office sits at 180 Bloor Street West, a 14 storey building between Yorkville and the Annex, directly across the street from the Royal Ontario Museum. It's a corridor of small retail shops, restaurants, and hotels rather than a legal district, which fits a practice built around owner-managed businesses and hospitality clients as much as real estate deals. The building is within a five minute walk of the St. George, Museum, and Bay TTC subway stations on the Yonge-University-Spadina and Bloor-Danforth lines, useful for clients coming from across the city for a closing or a meeting.
