About LawLPS

LawLPS is the operating name of LPS Professional Corporation, a solo law practice in Toronto led by principal Sophia Dunkley. The firm concentrates on corporate law, charities and not-for-profit law, and wills and estates, and it also offers business agreements, notary and commissioner services, and consultancy for charities, not-for-profits, and philanthropists. On the corporate side, it handles the establishment, maintenance, and reorganization of corporations, partnerships, and sole proprietorships, along with general counsel services and independent legal advice. Its charity and not-for-profit work covers incorporation, applications for registered charitable status, and ongoing regulatory compliance and income tax advice.

Dunkley was called to the Ontario Bar in 2002 and holds a B.A. (Hons.) and an LL.B. Before starting the firm, Dunkley worked at law firms of different sizes, building experience in corporate law, charity and not-for-profit law, estate planning, and family law, and later worked in philanthropic advisory services within the estate and trust division of a major Canadian bank, taking a leadership role in the management and administration of more than 120 foundations.
