About Founders LLP

Founders LLP is a corporate law firm in downtown Toronto that focuses on transactional work for businesses. Chris Payne and Money Khoromi started the firm in 2021 after leaving Goodmans LLP, according to a report in Canadian Lawyer magazine at the time. Payne's earlier practice focused on banking and finance law, and Khoromi's on mergers and acquisitions and securities. Since then the firm has added partners and senior counsel who came from firms including Osler, Hoskin & Harcourt, Dentons Canada, McMillan, Baker McKenzie, and Torys.

The firm's practice centres on mergers and acquisitions, corporate finance and securities, banking and financial services, and general corporate and commercial work, along with a dedicated focus on emerging and growth companies. Recent client work described on its site includes acting for the purchaser in the 2025 acquisition of Toronto's El Mocambo music venue and acting for Proack Security in connection with its acquisition by WELL Health Technologies Corp. Founders LLP's lawyers describe their combined experience as 75 years, 150 deals, and 250 clients. The office is on Bay Street, in Toronto's Financial District.
