About Lampert LawGiC

Lampert LawGiC is a small business law firm based in Toronto, with a second office in Moncton, New Brunswick. CEO and founding lawyer Leigh Lampert started the practice after noticing a gap in the market for in-house and on-demand legal counsel. That followed senior legal and business roles at Sears Canada and a term as general counsel to a large, privately held retail and real estate company. Lampert holds an LLB and MBA from Dalhousie University and an undergraduate degree from the University of Ottawa, and teaches as an adjunct professor of business law at Toronto Metropolitan University and of international business and human resources at York University.

The firm doesn't work on a traditional billable hour model. It offers fractional and outsourced general counsel to companies that don't have a full time legal department, plus overflow support for in-house teams during busy stretches or major transactions. Its core areas are corporate and commercial law, real estate and leasing, employment law, corporate governance, and privacy, compliance and regulatory matters. Several members of the team worked in-house before joining, including roles at RBC, an international automaker, and a global electronics and technology company, and the group includes lawyers called to the bar in more than one jurisdiction.
