Free consultationAbout KMS Legal
KMS Legal is a small Toronto legal association with its office at 370 Bloor Street East, in the area the firm's own site identifies as Rosedale. Lawyer Jamie Kopman started the firm to provide criminal, family, and estates services, though the current site materials center on criminal defence. Kopman was called to the Ontario Bar in 2016 after articling at a Toronto firm that emphasized criminal and family law.
Kopman holds a Bachelor of Arts with Honours from Wilfrid Laurier University and a Juris Doctor from Bond University in Australia, where the coursework included helping pioneer the university's legal clinic, which delivered pro bono legal services. Kopman's practice now covers criminal defence matters across Toronto and the wider Greater Toronto Area, including Scarborough, Brampton, Milton, Hamilton, Oshawa, and Newmarket, with appearances in the Ontario Court of Justice, the Superior Court, and before various tribunals.
The firm's second lawyer, Jacob Rice, also holds a Bachelor of Arts with Honours from Wilfrid Laurier University, along with a Bachelor of Laws with Honours from the University of Sussex in England. Rice completed articles with a sole practitioner in criminal defence before joining KMS Legal as an associate, with a practice covering charges such as assault, criminal harassment, and firearms offences.

Who handles what
The neighbourhood
KMS Legal's office sits at 370 Bloor Street East, in the part of central Toronto the firm's site names as Rosedale. From that office, Kopman's practice reaches across Toronto and into surrounding GTA municipalities including Scarborough, Brampton, Milton, Hamilton, Oshawa, and Newmarket, so the firm's caseload isn't tied to a single local courthouse the way a neighbourhood general practice might be.
