About Elias Rabinovitch Law

Elias Rabinovitch Law is a solo criminal and civil litigation practice based in downtown Toronto, founded by Elias Rabinovitch, a 2021 graduate of Osgoode Hall Law School who mooted and won academic prizes there. Licensed with the Law Society of Ontario, Rabinovitch handles every file personally rather than passing it to an associate, and the practice splits about evenly between criminal defence and civil litigation.

On the criminal side the firm covers assault, sexual assault, domestic violence, robbery and theft, drug and weapons offences, driving offences, youth matters, and appeals. On the civil side it handles wrongful dismissal and other employment disputes, expropriation claims, debt collection, and general civil litigation. For matters that call for outside expertise, the firm works in association with lawyers Kevin W. Gray and Ben Fulton. Clients reach Rabinovitch directly, including after hours, and the firm offers a free initial consultation along with a flat fee for most criminal matters, plus payment plans for clients with demonstrated financial need.

The neighbourhood

The firm's office sits in the Carlton on the Park building at Carlton and Jarvis, a corner that overlooks Allan Gardens, one of downtown Toronto's older public parks. It's a short walk to the College subway station and sits on the 506 streetcar line, which makes it a workable stop for clients coming from across the city rather than just the immediate block.

Because Rabinovitch travels to courthouses across the GTA and beyond, into Peel, York, Durham, Halton, Hamilton, and as far as Windsor, London, Kitchener, Barrie, and Ottawa, the Carlton Street office works more as a home base for an Ontario wide practice than a neighbourhood storefront serving one courthouse.
