Virtual appointmentsAbout Greenwood Law
Greenwood Law is a small Toronto litigation firm built around employment law and workplace defence, founded and led by principal lawyer Jessyca Greenwood. The firm says it is one of the few Ontario firms with a complete workplace investigation practice, meaning it conducts investigations itself, defends respondents named in investigations run by others, and advises employers and in house counsel from the first complaint through to the decisions that follow the report. Alongside Greenwood, the team includes four partners and support staff, working with both employers and employees as well as regulated professionals such as physicians, accountants, real estate agents, and architects.
The practice splits into work for employers, including contracts, restructuring, compliance, and investigations, and work for employees, including wrongful and constructive dismissal, severance review, and human rights complaints. It also handles workplace defence in cases involving allegations such as harassment, fraud, or breach of trust, and regulatory defence for professionals facing discipline from their regulator. Clients are seen virtually and by appointment at the firm's law chambers, and matters are taken on across Ontario and, for some regulatory and employment work, across Canada.

Who handles what
The neighbourhood
Greenwood Law's Church Street address sits in a building put up in 1930 for the J. Frank Raw Company. Designed by architect Murray Brown with A.G. Elton in the Art Deco style, the building is designated a heritage property under Part IV of the Ontario Heritage Act. The Church Street corridor it sits on runs through Toronto's downtown core, a short walk from the city's courts, which suits a practice built on litigation and workplace investigations.
Greenwood Law doesn't run a walk in storefront out of the space. The firm sees clients virtually and by appointment at its law chambers, a model that fits a practice serving employers, employees, and regulated professionals from across Ontario rather than a purely local walk in clientele.
