About David Dolson Law
David Dolson Law is a small, sole practitioner real estate firm in Etobicoke, run by David W. Dolson. Dolson earned an LL.B. from Osgoode Hall Law School in 1979 and an LL.M. in tax law in 1986, and was called to the Ontario bar in 1981. The firm operates as barrister, solicitor, and notary public, and Dolson has kept the practice deliberately small and personal, aiming for long term relationships with clients rather than high volume.
The practice concentrates on real estate transactions, including the purchase, sale, lease, and financing of residential, commercial, and industrial property, along with related litigation. Dolson also acts for private mortgage lenders on financing and enforcement, represents construction lien claimants, and handles business acquisitions structured as share purchases of corporations that hold real estate. The firm doesn't take on criminal or family law matters, and it asks clients to have insurance and mortgage instructions in place well ahead of closing.

The neighbourhood
The office is Suite 505 in a nine storey building at 703 Evans Avenue, part of a pair of landmark office towers near Sherway Gardens in south Etobicoke. The block has drawn interest from developers looking to add residential highrises to the area, a sign of how much the Sherway district has grown around what was once a mainly commercial strip.
The building sits close to Highway 427 and the QEW, and the firm notes that visitors get half an hour of free parking on site. That kind of access suits a practice that deals with private mortgage lenders, purchasers, and construction lien claimants from across the wider Toronto area, not just people living nearby.
