About Grinhaus Law Firm

Grinhaus Law Firm is a small, business focused firm headquartered in Toronto, at 234 Eglinton Avenue East. The firm built its practice around corporate and commercial law, tax and estate structuring, and real estate, later adding a niche in blockchain, cryptocurrency, and Web3 advisory that set it apart from most Canadian firms doing this kind of work.

Founder Aaron Grinhaus holds an LL.B. from the University of Ottawa, a J.D. from Michigan State University College of Law, and an LL.M. in Tax from Osgoode Hall Law School. Grinhaus now works as an adjunct professor of international tax law at Osgoode and co directs its certificate program in Web3, Metaverse, and Blockchain Law. In 2019 Grinhaus wrote a LexisNexis textbook on smart contracts and blockchain law, and in January 2022 the firm opened a virtual office in the Decentraland metaverse, described on the firm's site as a first for a Canadian law firm.

For family law, commercial disputes, intellectual property, and some matters outside Ontario, the firm works alongside independent lawyers in British Columbia, Alberta, and Quebec who run their own practices under the NorthShield Legal Group name rather than as Grinhaus branch offices.
