Daoust Vukovich LLP

About Daoust Vukovich LLP

Daoust Vukovich LLP is a small Toronto law firm built around commercial real estate. Dennis Daoust and Natalie Vukovich founded it in 1995, and it has stayed focused since then on commercial leasing, commercial real estate, construction and design, litigation and dispute resolution, and telecom and wireless access agreements. About 18 lawyers and 6 law clerks work out of the firm's office at 20 Queen Street West in downtown Toronto, acting for landlords, tenants, developers, and property managers on transactions and disputes across the country.

Daoust was called to the Ontario bar in 1974 and spent a decade as in house counsel, later vice president and general counsel, at Cadillac Fairview Corporation before co founding the firm. Vukovich practiced commercial leasing law for 40 years and retired at the end of 2024, closing out the firm's 30th year in business. The firm's telecom and wireless group works on a narrower slice of that world: it drafts rooftop antenna, distributed antenna system, and other network access agreements for building owners, written to Canadian CRTC guidelines. Daoust Vukovich also publishes a free commercial property leasing guide and produces an audio series on leasing topics called RealTea.
