Levitt Di Lella Duggan & Chaplick LLP, known as LDDC Lawyers, is a Toronto firm built around Ontario's housing sector. Its office is at 425 University Avenue, Suite 500, in downtown Toronto. The firm's residential tenancy law page says it has provided housing law advice for "over 30 years," and its current practice covers residential tenancy law, condominium law, non-profit housing law, co-operative housing law, litigation and dispute resolution, and housing transactions and development. Clients include condominium corporations, residential landlords, multi-family developers, non-profit housing providers, and housing co-operatives.
The firm pairs its lawyers with paralegals and law clerks. Most Landlord and Tenant Board and Human Rights Tribunal of Ontario matters are handled by paralegals under a lawyer's supervision, which the firm says helps keep costs down for landlords managing larger portfolios. Partners include David Di Lella, who is admitted to practice law in both Ontario and New York State, and Bradley Chaplick, who leads the condominium law group and is a director of the Community Associations Institute's Canada chapter. According to the firm's LinkedIn page, LDDC recently expanded into an entire floor at its University Avenue address.

Who handles what
The neighbourhood
LDDC's office sits at 425 University Avenue, at Dundas Street West, in downtown Toronto. The building dates to 1959 and stands next to the St. Patrick subway station. A commercial leasing listing for the address describes the location as close to the financial core, the courts, and the hospitals along University Avenue, a stretch of the city known for exactly that mix of institutions. That fits a firm whose litigation lawyers appear before the Superior Court of Justice, the Divisional Court, and the Court of Appeal, all within walking distance of the office.
