About Genest Murray LLP
Genest Murray LLP is a small litigation firm in downtown Toronto with three lawyers. It was founded in 1987, when a group of colleagues left a full service Toronto law firm to build a practice focused entirely on advocacy, an approach the firm says was unusual at the time. It has kept that same focus for more than three decades and still describes itself as a firm built around litigation rather than general legal services.
The firm mainly represents individuals, professionals, commercial clients, municipalities, school boards and the Provincial Crown, defending claims that involve personal injury, sexual abuse allegations, professional negligence, insurance coverage disputes and motor vehicle accidents. Genest Murray says several lawyers who worked there over the years have gone on to other roles in business and government, and some have been appointed judges of the Ontario Superior Court of Justice and the Ontario Court of Appeal. Principal partner Bruce Hutchison joined the firm as a student in 1989 and has practiced there since being called to the bar in 1991, and now leads a small team that includes partners Myle Nguyen and Steven Nicoletta.
