About Fryer Levitt Lawyers

Fryer Levitt Lawyers is a small law firm in midtown Toronto, with its office on Eglinton Avenue West. Joel Levitt founded the firm in 1994, after articling at Miller Thomson and a short stay at another Toronto firm. Joel was called to the Ontario Bar in 1991, following a law degree from Osgoode Hall Law School.

The practice has roots that go back further. Joel's father, Sol Levitt, had over 50 years in private practise before passing away in 2013, focusing on real estate, commercial law, and wills and estates. That mentorship shaped the firm Joel built: a small, full service practice that also carries a considerable commercial litigation caseload, from collections and shareholder disputes to real estate and estates litigation.

Fryer Levitt has appeared at all levels of court in Ontario and before regulatory tribunals, including the Ontario College of Teachers, the College of Denturists of Ontario, and the Ontario Motor Vehicle Industry Council. The firm also handles collection matters for agencies and corporations based in Canada and abroad.

The neighbourhood

Fryer Levitt's office sits on Eglinton Avenue West in midtown Toronto, at 421 Eglinton Avenue West, Suite 2. The firm is upfront about what its space is not: no high rise views, no fancy artwork, no marble floors, just an office set up to keep rates realistic for clients.

A GreenP parking lot sits directly across the street, behind a Starbucks, and metered street parking is available on Eglinton Avenue West outside of rush hour. Fryer Levitt even built a page pointing clients to that Starbucks, offering a card or a cup from the office Keurig before or after a meeting, a small, informal touch for what can otherwise be a stressful visit.
