About LBE Law
LBE Law is a Toronto criminal defence and civil litigation practice built around Lawrence Ben-Eliezer, who graduated from the University of Calgary's Faculty of Law in 1987 and was called to the Bar in Ontario in March 1989. Ben-Eliezer studied political science at McGill University and Concordia University before that law degree. Born in Bucharest, Romania, in 1959, Ben-Eliezer's family moved to Israel two years later and then to Montreal in 1968, before Ben-Eliezer settled in Toronto to practice law.
The practice takes on a range of criminal charges, including assault, bail hearings, criminal negligence, dangerous driving, domestic assault, drug charges, fraud, impaired driving, manslaughter, sexual assault, youth offences and appeals, along with civil litigation matters. Trials have been conducted at the Ontario Court of Justice and the Superior Court of Justice, with appeals argued at the Superior Court of Justice and the Court of Appeal for Ontario. Ben-Eliezer speaks English, Hebrew, Romanian and French. The office is at 121 Richmond Street West in downtown Toronto, the same suite listed as the head office of Daley, Byers, Barristers and Solicitors, the firm Ben-Eliezer is associated with.

Earlier in its history, LBE Law also kept a second office on Leslie Street in Newmarket to serve clients north of the city. By 2024 that satellite location was no longer listed, and the Richmond Street suite in Toronto was the practice's only address.
